Great value and comfortable. Once you get yourself organised and get a routine it was a great way to travel. The van is easy to drive and I had no problems at all.

Shane was fantastic! The handover and the videos to prepare you for the trip are incredibly helpful and amazing. Overall, the van is excellent. Its very spacious, lots of storage, and comfortable. If you plan to use the bottom bed, I recommend adding the top cushions or even a memory foam topper. I used my queen memory foam topper, and it made a world of difference. Apart from that, Im eagerly looking forward to renting this van again! Thanks, Shane.

We had a great time during our 7 days trip. Shane's taking good care of this van which shows its age. Everything was functional, although the floor plan is old, with the toilet/shower space not really needed and the 2 seats at the back of the van. The main bed was really hard to sleep on due to the many old cushions of different firmness and thickness and uneven surface due to the back seats. I strongly advice future hirers to bring a good mattress topper to make it more comfortable. The van is very demanding on fuel so be prepared for it. All in all a good experience.

The van was perfect for our trip away. It had everything we needed, the lighting is amazing for night time, the fridge is a good size and its easy to move around in with lots of head room and plenty of space for everyone.

George is an old bus, you have to respect that. Fuel wasn't as bad as we thought being first time campers. Bed was basic at best, we bought cheap yoga mats to pad it out a bit. You need to have a source of power for George, we used a powered caravan site so as to not drain him of all his juice which, without sun, will deplete if the fridge is on and engine turned off. These are not bad things considering it's only $60 a day to hire. Just don't go expecting it to be a Winnebago or something. It's basic, which was perfect for us. Hope the next people who have him will love him as much as we did. Thanks again Shane for being so easy to deal with, the experience will stay with us forever.
