Welcome to New Zealand at its Best


Organic Explorer has carved out a name for itself as a comprehensive resource for travellers seeking eco-friendly experiences in New Zealand.

Through its website and travel guides, it has provided travellers with an abundance of information about everything from organic cafe's and eco-lodges to nature tourism and Maori cultural experiences.

But Organic Explorer’s efforts have gone further than just informing travellers about the variety of eco-friendly experiences available in New Zealand. It has also helped raise international awareness of New Zealand as a visitor destination.

Eco-tourism experiences feature on many international visitors’ holiday plans and that will only increase Organic Explorer’s relevance to visitors and local eco-tourism businesses.

Long before environmental issues became fashionable, New Zealand's United Vehicle Rentals was firmly focused on an ecologically sustainable future and over the years we have led the way for others to follow with initiatives that include a World first:

2003: United became first Motorhome company to achieve New Zealand's Qualmark endorsement, your assurance of quality.

2004: United became first rental vehicle operator worldwide to achieve prestigious EarthCheck Certification.

2006: United committed to annual financial assistance in the reforestation of Motuoroa Island in Auckland's Hauraki Gulf, home to several New Zealand endangered species and a Kiwi nursery. Thanks to United up to 30,000 native trees have been planted on the island annually. To date over 250,000 trees have been planted and United encourages its own staff and clients to take part in planting days each year.

2007: United achieved EarthCheck Silver certification level, with our 'Above Best Practice' levels in all ten indicators described by Green Globe as "a world class achievement to be highly commended".

2008: To date, we remain the only rental motor home company in New Zealand with EarthCheck Silver Certification.

Going Forward - we continually search for ways to a positive environmental outcome. Current initiatives towards this goal include:

  • Purchase of new vehicle technology
  • Provision of environmentally friendly and bio-degradable products in all vehicles
  • All vehicles, except the Alpha Hi Top Campervan, are completely self contained
  • Bicycles and racks available for hire with every vehicle model; we are the only major motorhome company to offer this option
  • Education of clients on waste disposal, recycling, use of environmentally friendly products and general care of our environment.
  • Endorsement of other industry products with similar environmental values.

Hi United. My partner and I recently hired a 2 + 1 Premier campervan at your Auckland depot for 3 weeks. In this day and age where customer service seems to be anything but, it is a refreshing change to be able to provide positive feedback and thanks for excellent service. Our comments include:


- The deal, pay for 2 weeks and get a week free was excellent value.
- The vehicle itself is a very clever design, allowing us to maintain a permanent bed at the back and enjoy a separate lounge/dining area at the front - exactly what we wanted for the two of us.
- Service at the Auckland depot was first class, especially Eva.
- Our thanks also to other staff who assisted in providing answers to technical questions, and who took on board our constructive comments in a positive manner.
- Your list of service providers around NZ who could be called upon for repairs etc is a good idea and saved us quite a few hassles.
We were most impressed and will certainly be returning to NZ for another trip which we will look at doing again with United.
We are members of the CMCA in Australia and will be writing to the Association's magazine to provide our observations to other members who are looking at doing similar trips in NZ.
Once again, many thanks for your excellent standards!

"Our booking was handled excellently, all information provided promptly, no questions asked. Pick up procedure was easy, fast and thorough, arrival time at depot to departure was less than half an hour. We managed to see more than we expected in 2 weeks and highly recommend the South Island wines!"

"Thank you for making our 2 week honeymoon a great experience! Everything went to plan from the time of booking to pick up. Your staff were very well informed and our vehicle was like brand new - exceeded our expectations. We had a fantastic experience in New Zealand and will be back again."

"We have no complaints at all from United and Alpha clients. This is very good. But when clients call after their return and enthusiastically tell me how great the camper and the staff in both branches were - this makes me really happy!"
