What's in your car?

Gear built for Tasmania.

Every item is chosen for Tasmanian conditions. Tested, cleaned and checked before every trip.

Naturehike 4-Season Tent

Water and Wind-resistant

Tested in Tasmanian wind and rain. Solid poles, 14 stakes, full weatherproof flysheet that reaches the ground. Won't let you down.

Sleeping Bag

Comfort rated to 0°C · One per person

Rated for genuine comfort in every season, because Tasmanian nights get cold whatever the month. Warm sleep, guaranteed.

Sleeping Mats

Foam core · Ground insulation

Every mat has a foam core that blocks the cold from the ground, so you sleep well all year. Pick a firm self-inflating double, or a single you inflate for extra padding, whatever fits your group size.

Complete Cooking Kit

Stove · Pots · Pans · Plates · Cutlery · Lighter

Everything you need to cook a hot meal, anywhere in Tasmania. Nothing missing, nothing to buy. A warm dinner after a long hike makes the whole day better.

Double Blanket & Pillows

Double blanket · 1 pillow per person

An extra layer for cold nights or for sitting around the campsite. Every kit includes pillows so you don't need to stuff a jumper under your head.

Chairs & Camp Table

1 chair per person · Folding table included

A proper seat and a real table make every meal, every coffee, every sunrise better. No sitting on the ground, this is camping, not survival.

The whole service was just perfect for my 7-days roadtrip in Tassie! I’ve hired a nice Toyota Kluger with the camping gear included, which had everything I needed. The sleeping bag, the additional blanket and the pillow were nice and clean. Joice has been very kind and helpful, making my first roadtrip unforgettable.

Explora really made our trip to Tasmania special. When I first heard about a service that provides both a car and camping gear together, I couldn’t believe it. The price is very fair for everything you get. The team is very friendly and helpful, and they are happy to assist with any questions or requests.

Could not recommend Explora enough! We had an amazing 7-day trip to Tassie, and Explora provided everything we could have possibly needed for a fraction of the price of other options. The car was comfortable, and all the camping equipment was in perfect condition, and kept dry from a night of torrential rain. Joice was very friendly and helpful, and made a very smooth pickup and drop off!

What it actually
looks like.

Every question answered

Everything you're
wondering about

Do I need camping experience?

Not at all. The car comes pre-packed and ready to go. Our route guide walks you through everything, and we’re a phone call away if you need anything during your trip.

What's included when I rent a camping car?

Every car comes with a full camping setup — free. Tent, sleeping bags, mats, pillows, chairs, a table, a cooler and cooking gear. Just bring your clothes. Everything else is ready to go.

Is insurance included?

All vehicles include MAIB insurance, which covers passengers’ hospital expenses in case of an accident.

We don’t sell extra insurance, instead, we work with a bond system. You’ll leave a refundable deposit ($1000–$1500) at pick-up, which covers potential damage. If everything’s fine at drop-off, you get it all back.

We recommend having personal roadside assistance, as basic support doesn’t cover things like lost keys or flat tyres. 😊

Where do I pick up and drop off?

Pick-up and drop-off is in Hobart, conveniently located near the airport and CBD. Exact address is provided when you book.

Can I camp anywhere in Tasmania?

Tasmania has incredible freedom camping options. Our route guide includes the best free and low-cost sites so you’re never without a great spot to stop for the night.

Can I drive on my overseas licence?

Yes, most of our international guests do. You need a full licence you’ve held for at least 12 months. If it’s in English, you’re set. If not, bring an English translation or an International Driving Permit (a small booklet you get back home before you fly). Just bring the real licence with you.

I'm under 25, can I still rent?

Yes. You can rent from age 21. The only difference is the bond — $1,500 instead of $1,000. Same cars, same gear, same freedom. You just need to have held your full licence for at least 12 months.

What if the car gets damaged?

Don’t worry, small scratches happen. For minor marks, we cover the repair from your bond, so there’s no surprise bill. For bigger damage, there’s a set limit on what you’d pay, so you always know the most it could cost. If anything happens, your safety comes first, and you’ll always see photos and a clear quote before anything is charged.

Where can I take the car?

Almost anywhere fun. Our cars handle sealed and good gravel roads just fine. To keep everyone safe, please skip beaches, riverbeds, flooded roads, 4WD-only tracks, and snow zones like Cradle Mountain in winter. Not sure if a road’s okay? Just ask, we know them well.

How much is the bond, and when do I get it back?

We hold a refundable bond during your trip: $1,000 if you’re 25 or older, $1,500 if you’re under 25. Bring the car back in good shape with a full tank and we send it back fast — same day for daytime drop-offs, next morning if it’s after hours.

01 -

Will I freeze in a tent in winter?

Our sleeping bags and tents are chosen for Tasmanian winter temperatures — not summer gear dressed up. Hundreds of people have done this with us in June and July. None of them were cold. That's the right gear, not luck.

02-

We don't own any camping gear at all.

You don't need to own a single thing. The car arrives packed with everything — tent, sleeping bags, mats, blankets, pillows, stove, pots, pans, plates, cutlery, chairs, table, cooler, headlamps. You bring your clothes.

03-

What if we pick the wrong spots and waste the trip?

At every pickup we share a real, honest plan for your trip based on your dates and the conditions — the secret campsite, the best winter tracks, the spots that don't make it onto any travel blog. Free with every booking.

04-

This seems complicated to organise in time.

One booking covers everything. 10% deposit holds your car. Pay the rest at pickup. Dates change? Talk to us — we're flexible. You could sort this in the next 10 minutes.

05-

What if something goes wrong far from home?

You're not dealing with a call centre. Joice and Sebastian run this personally. Car issue, gear question, route change — WhatsApp us and we respond fast. You are not alone out there. That's a promise, not a policy.
