Absolutely amazing service from Darryl, why can't I give him 6 stars!?We bought a used Stockman All Roada trailer from a private seller and needed a few accessories to prepare for relocating interstate.Darryl provided a full stone guard and Darche Hi View 1400 roof top tent, both in stock and fitted the very same day. In the post covid world that's near unheard of so I was most impressed.Pricing was more than fair and in addition to this he upgraded the struts to cope with the extra weight and spent some time checking the condition of the trailer and talking with us about the possible improvements.A really honest, reliable and conscientious business, highly recommend for all your camping and trailer needs.

Couldn't be happier with the service I received from Darryl at Camping Culture Australia. Darryl completed upgrades to my Stockman All-Roada. He was patient with questions and efficient in completing quality work.

We hired an off road camper for a short trip away with friends. We have previously owned a tent and are looking to try new options with quicker set up and pack up.
The instructions we received were easy to follow and we had no problems at all setting up and taking down. (Other than me being too short, but there was a step ladder included fir shorties!)
Darryl is an easy going and helpful guy and I’d recommend Camping Culture and will be hiring again on trips to come.

Darryl was super easy to deal with and the tent I hired was perfect for the harsh Australian desert conditions. The price made it more sense for me to hire than buy, and will do the same next year.

Needed an auxiliary battery to run my fridge freezer on my two week camping trip. I left it too late to book and the battery boxes were sold out. Due to their popularity Darryl ordered some more which was awesome! The box also came with 120w solar panels. Awesome price considering what it would have cost to buy everything and compared to other competitors!

We have just returned from 2 weeks in the Pilbara and Ningaloo. We hired a camper trailer from Darryl. It was a great experience and comfortable easy to erect trailer, with no hassles. I would recommend Camping Culture for your next camping trip. We plan on using them again next year. Thank you Darryl.

I hired a swag and Darryl couldn't have been more helpful. The swag was in perfect condition and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Camping Culture for hiring any equipment.
Elizabeth Tucker

Darryl was fantastic to deal with, incredibly responsive and flexible with all of our requests. The fridge, kitchen box, gas cooker and everything we hired was perfect for us flying in from the east coast - and meant we saved about $1,000 hiring through Camping Culture and a regular car hire company, rather than hiring a car with camping gear included. So reasonably priced. Highly recommend! Thanks Darryl and Kelly.

Our travel agent in Queensland found Camping Culture for us because we wanted to hire a fridge for 2+ weeks. I messaged Darryl before our holiday, got it all arranged was able to pick up on our way north. Great service, fridge was a real trooper great for super cold beers and food! Would recommend this small business to any interstate traveller, very flexible and great service

We hired a couple of kayaks from Camping Culture for a long weekend in Moore River, so glad we did! Darryl & Kelly provided excellent service, they were so flexible with drop off and pick up times and answered my questions so quickly. The kayaks were in perfect condition and we loved getting out on the river with our kids to explore the area. We also got the chance to check out a camper trailer when we picked the kayaks up, they look fantastic, we’re looking forward to hiring one for an upcoming trip to Coral Bay 😊 Thanks for looking after us so well Darryl & Kelly! We’ll be in touch again soon 😊

Darryl and the team went out of their way to accommodate us. They gave us great advice and there camper trailer was clean and excellent quality, with extras thrown in if needed. (cutlery, broom, and a step ladder ). The instructions he provided were very easy and as first time users, it only took us a short time to put it up and even less to pack up. They will be our go to for camper hire and we are going to take the swags for a try out one day.

I cant speak highly enough of this business and Darryl who runs it.I turned up without hubby so he took out the annex and added a gazebo (easier to put up on my own), then I had the wrong hitch so he sorted that out, I hadn't thought of gas so he gets me a gas bottle, oh I said can I charge my phone, not without a 12 volt charger, he says here borrow mine! He was so fantastic and the equipment was perfect.

Would definitely recommend Camping Culture Australia to our family and friends.

We have hired a camper trailer from Camping Culture 3 times now. Each time was a fantastic experience. We have a lot of toys (surfboards, kayaks etc) so absolutely love all the storage space. It is so quick and easy to put up and down, and we found the bed was huge and really comfortable. The strip lighting inside is a nice touch. I love how all the windows unzip to let the light and fresh air in. The customer service from Kelly and Darryl was excellent too. Proud to be a regular customer of these guys. Looking forward to our next trip on the long weekend!
