We had a fantastic experience with the Nomad van for our family trip to Todal River! Doug was incredibly helpful, explaining everything thoroughly. The van was well-stocked with all we needed, making our adventure seamless. It was spacious and comfortable for our family of three. Highly recommend it for a memorable getaway! Thank you, Doug!

Van is awesome, enough space inside for 2 adults and teenager, and dog. Equipped with necessary tools, but no overwhelmingly. Very smooth driving, actually surprisingly smooth. After about 1 hour of my driving accommodation I could control it on road with maximum of confidence, predictable breaking distance, cornering, parking, etc. Engine has enough guts to go over Mt Hotham ups and downs. Fuel consumption is very efficient for van of that size and weight. Doug is very friendly, precise to details, communicative. We had couple of uncertain things due to our own mistakes and Doug helped promptly. Handover process was fast and smooth, drop off - as well, with zero bureaucracy. I definitely recommend Doug and his Van to anyone who is into discovering Australia on a motorhome.

Goldie was a pleasure to take on our gorgeous journey along the Sapphire coast. Fantastic cooking equipment. Comfortable bed. Super warm And cosy, .plenty of room for our stuff. Our two pups were able to enjoy a holiday with us.They loved it. Doug really looks after his vans and a lot of love work goes into them.we even watched some dvds. I highly recommend. :)

Doug is an amazing host. He was very thorough and really friendly. Everything in the Motorhome was thoughtfully set up, lacking nothing. We had a wonderful trip and will definitely book again with Doug! John & Susan

Absolutely love Goldie. She is the best ride I have had, no issues on the road and has some grunt. Clean, tidy and everything I needed for my trip away. Easy to use, convert and park to enjoy your time, will definately be hiring her again very soon. Doug was great to deal with, friendly, kind and informative, loves his campers. Will be in contact again soon. Loved my experience with Goldie and happy travels ahead. Thank you so much.
