Restrictions may apply to drivers who hold a provisional licence. Policies differ between each campervan rental company, so you will need to check the terms and conditions specific to your rental.

Before you head to the depot to pick up your campervan, it is also a good idea to learn about the road rules of New Zealand. If you are travelling from a different country, you may find the laws are slightly different.
