Our Driver Requirements
Drivers must be aged 21 or over to hire a campervan or motorhome, although some larger motorhomes or 4WD vehicles may require drivers to be 25+. A valid driverโs licence held for at least 12 months is required, and if your licence is not in English, an International Driving Permit (IDP) or a certified translation is necessary. All listed drivers must be included in the rental agreement.

Essential Road Trip Tips for the Darwin to Perth Journey
Preparing for Your Adventure
Before hitting the road, you should always get familiar with your campervan or motorhome. Our staff will provide a thorough handover and walkthrough of all onboard systemsโwater tanks, power connections, solar panels, fridge, gas stove, and more. Take note of any vehicle quirks and make sure everything is in working order, especially spare tyres and safety gear.
The Packing Essentials
Stock up on any essentials before you leave Darwin, especially if you're taking remote routes such as the Gibb River Road. Youโll want a good supply of drinking water, dry and canned food, cooking supplies, fuel, and an emergency kit (most of which we provide). A torch, extra batteries, insect repellent, and a satellite phone are also recommended to keep your trip as safe as possible.
Donโt Forget These Driving Tips
Outback driving conditions can be different hour-to-hour. For unsealed roads, especially in national parks or remote areas, reduce your tyre pressure and drive at slower speeds to maintain control and avoid damage. Then, always be mindful of wildlife on the roads if youโre driving at dawn or dusk.
Weather and Terrain
The best time for a campervan hire Darwin to Perth journey is during the dry season (May to October), when the weather is warm and sunny with minimal rainfall. Avoid the wet season (November to April) as many roadsโincluding popular tracks like the Gibb River Roadโmay be closed due to flooding. High daytime temperatures in the Top End also mean you should plan to travel early in the day and park up somewhere shaded by the afternoon.
