How To Rent A Mystery Machine Campervan in Australia

If you're travelling Australia, whether you're a tourist, local, or on a Working Holiday Visa, there's no doubt that you've seen the iconic Mystery Machine campervan all over social media. But how do you hire one? Various Australian rental companies have them available for hire, however Imoova also have them available for relocation for as little as $1 per day!

What is the Mystery Machine Campervan?

The Mystery Machine campervans are iconic, Scooby-Doo–themed vehicles that you’ll spot cruising down Australia’s highways, from the Outback to the coast. Painted in that unmistakable teal and green flower-power print, they’ve become a cult favourite among backpackers, roadtrippers, and budget adventurers.

They don’t just look good — they come fully equipped with:

  • A comfy bed

  • A small kitchen or kitchenette

  • Storage space

  • Basic camping gear

Perfect for solo travellers, couples, or mates on the ultimate Aussie adventure.

Where Can You Drive the Mystery Machine?

Everywhere. Literally.

From Sydney to Byron, Melbourne to the Great Ocean Road, or Brisbane to Cairns, these campers are built for epic coastlines, national parks, and spontaneous detours.

And with Imoova’s relocation deals, you can take the Mystery Machine on one-way trips across Australia — with the rental price starting at just $1 per day. Sometimes they’ll even throw in fuel and ferry allowances. All you have to do is relocate the vehicle to its next destination — and enjoy the ride along the way.
