We recently took The Snail on a 7-night getaway through Gippsland, and it was absolutely perfect! The van had everything we could possibly need and more. The gas stove and kitchenette were fantastic fully stocked with all the essentials like pots, pans, plates, bowls, and even thoughtful extras such as salt, pepper, spices, and a lovely selection of herbal teas. Lisa really has thought of everything! The fridge and freezer were super powerful, keeping all our food perfectly chilled throughout the trip. We were also pleasantly surprised to find bug spray, multiple camp headlamps, and even spare batteries of all sizes such a thoughtful touch that made things so easy. The van itself was spacious, clean, and incredibly comfortable. The mattress was divine, and the clean bedding Lisa supplied made it feel fresh and cozy. The storage compartments especially the one above for clothes and the large space underneath kept everything organized. The high-top roof was a huge bonus, making it comfortable to stand up while cooking or getting changed. We also loved the outdoor setup! The gazebo was super easy to put up and take down, and the built-in lights made our outdoor dinners and nighttime fishing so enjoyable. Having the camp chairs and folding table included was another bonus everything we needed for relaxing by the water or sharing a meal outdoors. Driving The Snail was a dream smooth, reliable, and comfortable the whole way. It truly became our cozy little home on wheels. We cant wait to plan our next adventure and will definitely be booking The Snail again. Thank you, Lisa, for creating such a well-thought-out, comfortable, and charming campervan experience

Lisas van The Snail is set up so simple and perfect!! Its very easy to use and has lots of storage. The bed is so comfy! Everything is very simple to use, exactly what you need when on the road. No setting up to be done, just park up and its good to go! Will definitely hire again and highly recommend! Thank you Lisa!

My partner and I travelled from Tassie for a mainland holiday to get away from the island for a bit and we couldn't have asked for a better or smoother holiday in the Snail. Despite being a winter camping holiday in the van, we were incredibly comfortable and absolutely everything we could think of was in the setup, which made camping easy. My partner is very tall and also had no issues with space. Lisa has done a brilliant job of putting everything you need in the Snail to make your stay comfortable and in general is a wonderful person so we very much enjoyed renting the Snail from her. We will certainly book again if we want to do a van camping trip again. Thanks so much Lisa and the Snail!

The Snail is a great choice and really is well set up for all the things you could possibly want! Dont let the name fool you, this is easy to drive and rolls along the countryside with pleasure - Lisa is always happy to assist and has given much thought into all the things you may need while on a road trip.

I had the pleasure of renting "The Snail" from Lisa for three weeks in December 2024, and it was a fantastic experience. Lisa was incredibly responsive and provided some great advice that made the trip even smoother. The van itself is super comfortable and comes fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a road trip. Despite the odometer reading over 500,000 km, the vans technical condition is excellent, and it drives like a dream. Another great perk is the toll fee equipment included in the van, which meant I didnt have to worry about paying for tolls separately. The Bluetooth setup was also a nice touch perfect for playing music and setting the vibe on the road. I couldnt recommend "The Snail" more highly. If youre looking for a reliable and well-equipped campervan, this is the one!

We had a great 5 days away in the Snail, which came with everything we needed. Obviously it's not a new van, but it got us where we wanted to go and was very comfortable to live in. Lisa was also excellent to deal with. She communicated well and gave us good tips and advice on our trip. She also very kindly collected us and dropped us at local rail connections. Overall we would recommend the Snail as a good value getaway vehicle!
