Baby Seats and Capsules

The following advice is to assist families traveling with one or more children under 8 years old in making sure they pick a campervan rental or motorhome rental vehicle that best meets their needs.

Camper Travel tip: for babies under 6 months old, have a look at the Britz, Maui and KEA campervan rental and motorhome rental vehicles as they can accommodate secure capsules, for families with older children have a look at the Apollo 4 and 6 berth as it has a great layout for families and a TV / DVD player.

In Australia the law requires that children are safely secured in the correct method / seatbelt, some campervan hire and motorhome hire vehicles cannot fix these seats, and therefore are not appropriate campervan rentals or motor home rentals for some families. If you are traveling with young children make sure you check which campervan hire or motorhome hire vehicle best meets your needs. Please feel free to let us know the age of your family members, and your travel dates, and we will provide the most suitable campervan rental or motorhome rental quote for your consideration.

Up to 6 months old, babies require a Capsule, not a baby seat. While some vehicles have the anchor points to use a capsule, not all of the operators provide for the rental of them, so you would need to use your own or hire / purchase from another source. Please ask us if you have any questions.

This table will let you know which motorhome rentals & campervan rentals have a toilet and shower, and its capacity to take baby capsules, seats and boosters. Click on the vehicle link to get the whole layout and vehicle specifications.
