Britz and maui motorhome prices reduced to exceptional levels to encourage regional travel; thl announces “Get Moving to
get New Zealand Moving” initiative.
thl, owner of Britz and maui campervans, is today announcing an extraordinary initiative to help get New Zealand moving.
Kiwis will be able to take a 3 or more day holiday from only $29/day, to explore the country and, as suggested by
Tourism New Zealand’s new domestic campaign, “Do Something New”. These exceptional price points, across both Britz and
maui motorhomes, can be booked over the next 8 weeks, for travel through until the end of October 2020. That includes
Queens Birthday Weekend, Labour Day Weekend, July School Holidays, and September School Holidays.
With international visitors nearly non-existent for the foreseeable future - thousands of motorhomes sit unused. thl’s ‘Get Moving to Get New Zealand Moving’ initiative will make the vehicles as accessible as possible through never seen
before rates and flexible booking arrangements to inspire kiwis to hit the road.
Says thl CEO Grant Webster “We know that around New Zealand there are many people keen to head out and explore, spread their
wings and enjoy a well-deserved family holiday. We hope this initiative helps make that a reality. We’re literally
handing people the keys and saying ‘off you go!’”
Beyond enabling kiwis to enjoy a well deserved holiday, the initiative is designed to support regional communities and
small businesses feeling the impact of reduced visitation, both from local and international travellers.
“Part of the joy of motorhome travel is the unexpected discoveries along the way. Our customers speak of things like the
incredible custard squares they found at a coffee shop in Tirau, the beautiful cashmere shop they discovered whilst
driving the East Coast, the friendly service they received at the local holiday park, the handmade soaps and homemade
fudge they discovered at a little shop they stopped into on the West Coast. Things like this are all part of the
journey, as those new to the campervan experience are sure to discover!”
The Great New Zealand road trip is famous worldwide and on the bucket list of many. This initiative goes a great way
towards making it a reality for many. Says Webster, “There will never be a better time for New Zealanders to tick this
one off the bucket list”
