Thinking of touring Western Australia in a campervan? If you're looking for a fantastic deal on campervan hire in Perth, check out the deals online at campervanhireperth.com.au.Here's an excerpt from great article in the Sydney Morning Herald, about a campervan road trip from Melbourne to Perth:
They said we'd never make it. They said we'd break down in the middle of nowhere, run out of water and if the unforgiving climate didn't kill us, the guy out of Wolf Creek or another Bradley John Murdoch would. But that didn't stop us setting off in a 1977 Volkswagen campervan sans air-conditioning for a trek across the Nullarbor Plain in blistering heat.Read the rest here, including information about Balladonia, WA, where in 1979 the remains of NASA's Skylab came tumbling down -- the town museum still has pieces of Skylab on display.
Despite the voices of doom, we lived to tell the tale. Alas, the Kombi didn't.
But it did make the 4000 kilometres from Melbourne to Perth, via the southern West Australian coast - and halfway back - without incident, and what an amazing road trip that made...
Video: Road trip, filmed from Perth, Western Australia down to a camping ground destination six hours away in Parry Beach.

I have been General Manager of Motorhome Republic, the operators of this website, for 4 years and with the company for 6 years starting as a Sales / Account Manager. Previous roles have included account manager and software architect for a web design firm, advertising sales across multiple media and television production. I’ve been lucky enough to go Motorhoming several times in Canada, USA and New Zealand so far and grew up going on caravanning holidays with Mum and Dad. The value and freedom Motorhoming offers are its two main drawcards for me. That and the envy on the other campers’ faces when you pull into a State Park campground with no hook ups in a 31’ Class C with double slide outs, on board generator, side awning, exterior entertainment unit and smoker unit for a 10kg salmon caught earlier that day.
I have been in the Motorhome industry for the best part of 6 years and with Motorhomes Republic for the last 18 months. I previously worked for the largest Motorhome rental company in the world as the New Zealand Sales Account Manager. I’ve traveled the length and width of New Zealand in many different categories of Motorhomes, in fact I don’t think there is a main state highway I haven’t driven. The love I have for Motorhomes is one of freedom and flexibility, doing what I want when I want. If I have a hankering for a cup of coffee in a beautiful scenic spot simply stop boil and enjoy….
