Around Australia Motorhomes is Australia’s premier motor home and camper van rental company, specialising in luxury motorhomes and campervans for hire across Australia.
If you’re interested in renting a vehicle from Around Australia Motorhomes then you’re interested in renting a truly full-featured piece of transportation. While some other motorhome campervan companies focus on offering bare-bones packages with their vehicles, Around Australia Motorhomes focuses on offering its clients all the amenities, from hot showers to fully functional kitchens. Likewise, Around Australia Motorhomes also focuses on offering a varied and diverse line of campervans and motorhomes. Combined with the company’s emphasis on creating an ever-expanding empire of locations situated throughout the entire country, it’s clear Around Australia Motorhomes takes their commitment to customer satisfaction and convenience incredibly seriously.
This emphasis on customer satisfaction extends well beyond simply providing their clients with the ability to hire out whatever campervan they want, with whatever features they need, in multiple locations. Around Australia Motorhomes also provides their rental customers with 24-hour roadside assistance.
Around Australia Motorhomes is primarily a rental company, but they do offer some (slightly) older models for sale. Every year Around Australia Motorhomes stocks up its rental fleet with new and improved campervans. This is good news for renters, but it’s even better news for buyers. As Around Australia Motorhomes upgrades their fleet they put their older units on the market for purchase. The nice thing is Around Australia Motorhomes sells through this older stock pretty quickly so you don’t have to worry you’re going to be stuck with a decades-old vehicle if you buy from them. No, most of the campervans Around Australia Motorhomes offers for sale are only 2-3 years old.
Even though Around Australia Motorhomes offers a nice range of different types of vehicles to choose from, whether for rental or for purchase, most of their vehicles are made by Winnebago. Seeing as Winnebago are one of the most popular brands in the world for motorhomes, this isn’t going to be a real downside for anyone unless you are very specifically looking for a different brand.
Of the vehicles they offer, the 6 Berth, Grand Tourer is the largest vehicle you can rent. The Grand Tourer is a good vehicle built around luxury and comfort, filled with 6 double beds and a large autonomous bathroom. All vehiles come with awnings, clean linens, kitchen tools and outdoor equipment, making Around Australia Motorhomes a good company to rent from if you aren’t looking to stock up on your own travel supplies.
With all the services they offer you would expect Around Australia Motorhomes to be a little more expensive than much of their competition, and that’s definitely true. But when you consider the high quality of the vehicles they offered combined with the full amenities and roadside assistance they offer, this extra expense is mostly negligible, and less than you would pay if you stocked up and got assistance on your own.
Around Australia Motorhomes is an independent company with depots located in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Cairns and Darwin.

I would rent from Around Australia Motorhomes again.
[...] on their web site, but a keen eye will tell you from the photos that they are getting them from Around Australia Motorhomes, so if you are getting a quote, do yourself a favour and check directly with AAM for a price as [...]
We got a reloacation campervan from Sydney to Adelaide and we never were told that the car was already broken. Having 3 very young kids, the relocation offer was too good to be true (we thought). We took the car for the 5*relocation offer and paid the full price for the 1 extra day we wanted to spend on the south-east part of the Australia. We were shortly to see that the car’s computer was a mess and in certain circumstances the car wouldn’t change a gear from 4 to any other higher gear. We called to the service company a couple of times and they said when the problem accured you have to disconnect the battery in order to solve the problem. Nobody from the company nor the service company told us we should call the service every single time the problem occured so we kept on fixing the same problem over and over again.
We soon realized we could not do it via Lakes Entrance nor south-east Australia but we should take the Hume Highway to Melbourne/Adelaide. The car kept having the problem with the gearbox every once in the while. It made our trip a hell. Even if the car was cheap we’d never booked it if we knew it wsa broken.
When we got to Adelaide the owners of the car said us to be happy to get the car so cheap and forgot all about the problems since we didn’t call the service company every time the car broke down. We got no compensation what so ever! We never wanted a compensation for a days we did only pay a relocation cost but since we paid a full cost for the last night (and we were not able to take our original route because of the wreckage of a car breaking down!!!), we never got a dime for compensation. That’s what we’re very upset about. So beware if you are after a compensation, you’ll never get it. That’s how helpful/understanding the staff is.
Beware of this company — if everything goes right it could be a good company but if something goes wrong you’ll be totally ignored. I would not recommend the companies – Bartrack Australia nor the Around Australia Motorhomes to a aware customers.
