Our holidays were amazing! The Escape Pod had everything that you need for a comfortable stay wherever you go. Everything is thought in this van! The communication with Craig was great as well! His explanations were perfect. During the trip we had to contact him and he replied straight away! Always attentive! Thank you so much again for everything! Rocio, Lucia and Hernán

Given the good weather for my holiday I was able to enjoy a very relaxed time with the back doors open to the weather, relaxing with a cuppa or a beverage and enjoy the sunshine and the wildlife. Craig has done an excellent job with his van conversion and great use of space.

I had the greatest trip in this well laid out van. Everything went smoothly, and my initial anxiety with driving a large van ( compared to my small car ) was soon put at ease. The van was EASY to drive. The bed was super comfortable, and although I had average weather, and one really stormy night, I felt secure and well equiped in this little "pod" . The high roof, allows you to stand up comfortabley, and the sense of space and air flow was obvious. The quality fitout and finishes were all appreciated. Highly reccommended ! Thanks guys, Mel

We were very excited to have a short 4 day (3 Night) trip in the Escape Pod. It actually went too quickly and another night or two would have been perfect. It was really fabulous tripping around and being able to pull in and set up the Van easily. The Pod is well thought out and had everything we needed to be comfortable, relax and unwind under the stars. Plenty of room for supplies and I was amazed at the amount we could also store in the fridge. The days were lovely and warm but we were glad for an extra blanket we packed as the nights at that particular time were chilly. Unfortunately on the first night the pump for the portable outdoor shower decided to pack it in. These things happen. It was just untimely for us. We were able to get in contact with Craig the following day and after some discussions and a process of elimination decided to go to plan B, which was handy to have but we didnt end up using as it involved boiling jugs of water etc and we had access to a shower. Definitely can see how it would become contagious. Over all a positive and fun few days.

We had a great break in the van. It was comfortable and our stay went smoothly while camping. Craig communicated very well, and the handover of the van was comprehensive and complete. Thanks Craig!

The Campervan was great to drive just like a car. It was comfortable to sleep in. It had all that we needed included. The extra bed was an advantage. Craig explained and communicated really well. I would definitely recommend to a friend and would hire it again.

We had a fabulous holiday in The Escape Pod. Cannot recommend it enough!! We flew in for a destination wedding long weekend and opted for the airport pick-up option. Craig has set up the van to cater for any of your needs. The van boasts comfort and made our holiday relaxing. A mini fridge, fans, lights, solar panels and battery all well thought out. The bed is super comfy, and looking out the skylight at the stars was a bonus. Would definitely rent again. Thanks Craig for an awesome experience!
