Who they are

About Awesome Campers

Awesome Campers is an Australian campervan company with its head office in Brisbane. Its fleet is small and simple: people movers and vans turned into campervans for two or three, all with an automatic gearbox and a petrol engine. None of the vans has a toilet, so they suit travellers who use campgrounds and caravan parks.

The Compact Camper is a Toyota Estima, and the Sun Chaser and Buddy Camper are Nissan Elgrand vans; the Buddy has a newer 2024-25 fit-out with a solar panel. The Coast Hopper is a high-roof Toyota HiAce for three with a 2026 fit-out, an 85-litre fridge-freezer, an outdoor shower and air conditioning in the living area. Unlimited kilometres, bedding, towels, a kitchen kit and a Camps Australia guide are included.

Awesome Campers picks up in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Cairns, and one-way rentals are possible. On CampervanPlanet you can compare it with the other campervan and motorhome companies in Australia or browse campervan rental in Australia.
