Travellers Autobarn, budget vans from one end of Australia to the other

From Perth to Cairns and from Darwin to Melbourne, Travellers Autobarn covers all four corners of Australia with six departure cities: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Cairns, Darwin and Perth. The brand is also present in New Zealand, the United States and Japan. It is aimed first and foremost at travellers looking for a simple vehicle to sleep, cook and drive long distances.

Its range consists solely of vans, all with automatic gearboxes in the models listed. For two, the Budgie Van and the Chubby Camper; for three, the HiTop Campervan and the Kuga Campervan, with a high roof; for a family, the X Wagon and the Hi5 Camper, with five seats and four berths.

The 125 offers observed by CoolDrive in October 2026 all include unlimited mileage. The excess is around €2,165, whatever the model.

Our view: a valuable network for linking the West, the tropical North and the east coast, with simple, inexpensive vans. On the other hand, no campervans with a bathroom and no 4x4s, and former customers have reported additional charges (cleaning, changes) that push up the bill. Book early for the high season.

Our view

Travellers Autobarn: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?

Travellers Autobarn is ideal if…

  • You dream of the West or the Top End and want to start from Perth or Darwin
  • Your budget is tight and a bed with a kitchen corner is all you need
  • You are planning to cross the continent with no kilometre limit
  • You do not want to drive a manual on the left
  • You are travelling as four or five and a family van suits you

Travellers Autobarn is not ideal if…

  • A shower and toilet on board are a must for you
  • You are starting from Adelaide, Hobart or Alice Springs
  • You want a 4x4 for dirt tracks: compare with RedSands Campers
  • You prefer an excess of a few hundred euros: see Camperman
  • You are travelling as six: look at the large models from Let's Go Motorhomes
Practical tips

Our tips for booking with Travellers Autobarn

  1. Make the most of departures from the West and the North

    Perth and Darwin are less well served than Sydney or Brisbane. From Perth, the west coast leads to Nambung National Park and its Pinnacles, then the Coral Coast. From Darwin, Kakadu and Litchfield national parks are a few hours away. The unlimited mileage observed makes these long loops more relaxed.

  2. Leave from the North during the dry season

    In Darwin and Cairns, the dry season, from May to October, offers passable roads and cooler nights. From November to April, tropical rains can close roads and some areas of the parks. For a trip in the South, between Sydney and Melbourne, the southern summer remains the most pleasant time.

  3. Book early in the high season

    Former customers have run into availability problems during busy periods. The Australian summer holidays, around December and January, are also when the median prices observed are highest. Booking several months ahead leaves more choice of models and dates.

  4. Return the van clean and check it at departure

    Cleaning fees may apply if the van comes back dirty, according to the rental company's conditions. At departure, walk around the vehicle with the agent, photograph any scratches and note them on the contract: with an excess of around €2,165, it is best to avoid any dispute on return.

  5. Count the berths, not just the seats

    The X Wagon and the Hi5 Camper carry five people but offer only four berths. For five, plan a tent or other accommodation for one person. The small models, such as the Budgie Van, are designed for two adults travelling light.

What travellers ask

Your questions about Travellers Autobarn

How much does a Travellers Autobarn hire in Australia cost?

For a 15-day hire, the prices observed in October 2026, mandatory fees included, start at €28 per day. Medians reach around €57 in July, €59 in April, €68 in October and €78 in January. The X Wagon is the cheapest of the models observed, the Hi5 Camper the most expensive, at up to €115 per day.

Can you start from Perth or Darwin with Travellers Autobarn?

Yes: Travellers Autobarn has a depot in Perth, in Bellevue, and another in Darwin, in Woolner. Few rental companies serve these two cities, which open onto the west coast, the Kimberley or the Top End. If you are heading north, choose the dry season, from May to October, to avoid closed roads.

Which Travellers Autobarn van should you choose?

For two, the Budgie Van or the Chubby Camper offer a bed and a kitchen corner in a size that is easy to park. For three, the HiTop Campervan and the Kuga Campervan gain in headroom. For a family, the X Wagon and the Hi5 Camper take five people, with four berths.

Is mileage limited with Travellers Autobarn?

No, in our observations. The 125 Travellers Autobarn offers observed in October 2026, across the six models, include unlimited mileage. This is a real advantage for linking Perth to Darwin or Sydney to Cairns, journeys of several thousand kilometres. Only fuel and campsite nights then vary with the length of the route.

Are Travellers Autobarn vans automatic?

Yes, all the models presented on this page have an automatic gearbox. In Australia, where you drive on the left and change gear with your left hand, this is a real comfort for drivers used to driving on the right. Still check the transmission in the offer details before booking.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Travellers Autobarn campervan hire in Australia

Why book Travellers Autobarn with CoolDrive?

A CoolDrive search puts Travellers Autobarn side by side with other Australian rental companies, each with its total price, mandatory fees included. Excess, mileage, return city and options appear before payment, with no nasty surprises. If you are torn between Perth, Darwin and the east coast, our experts help you build a route that fits the season.

What excess does Travellers Autobarn charge?

The excess observed in October 2026 is around €2,165, the same for all vans. An excess reduction option may be offered for a supplement: compare its price with this amount. The security deposit, often blocked on a credit card, is specified in each offer, as are the accepted means of payment.

Can you do a one-way hire with Travellers Autobarn?

With depots in the west, north and east, a one-way trip, from Darwin to Perth or from Brisbane to Cairns, is tempting. It does, however, depend on the offers and may incur fees. Enter the arrival city you want in the CoolDrive search engine: you will see only the offers that accept it, with the full price.

Where are the Travellers Autobarn depots?

The depots are on the outskirts of the cities: Banksmeadow in Sydney, Tullamarine in Melbourne, Hendra in Brisbane, Woolner in Darwin and Bellevue in Perth. Cairns has two addresses, in the centre and in Aeroglen. None is in an airport terminal: plan a taxi and check the address on your booking voucher.

Are there extra charges with Travellers Autobarn?

The CoolDrive price includes mandatory fees. Depending on the rental company's conditions, there may still be charges for cleaning, booking changes or extra equipment, which some former customers found quickly added up. Read the offer details before paying and return the van clean, with the tank filled as requested.

What licence do you need to drive a Travellers Autobarn van?

A standard car licence (category B) is enough: the range consists only of vans. A licence in a language other than English must be presented with an official translation or an international driving permit. The offer specifies the minimum age, the number of years of licence required and any young driver fees: check them before booking.
