Book with confidence — Plans change and we understand! Since this RV has a flexible cancellation policy, you've got some breathing room if your trip needs a tweak. You can find all the details in the cancellations section below.

Let's just say that there's a reason Expandas are a staple sight at caravan parks and free-camp spots alike. You have room for 6 people - 2 in each end and 1 per bunk. The bottom bunk turns into a table - therefore you have a table for the adults and a table for the kids. Plenty of fridge space and plenty of other storage space. Stocked with all the basics (bedding is additional, please message with any questions). Outdoor table, camp chairs, cooking basics, pantry essentials, board games... all there for you ready to go! BBQ (Weber traveler) available on request - will need to be transported in your tow vehicle. Book now, you won't regret it! If you are looking at doing an extended trip around Australia, please feel free to reach out.

Special towing information

Please note the van has a DO35 hitch installed, we can provide the hitch mount for your car if you have a standard ball installed (at no additional cost). We are also happy to give you a run-through on the day if you haven't used one before. We find it easier and safer should an accident happen. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxsYbaUzZPc) We can also provide a break controller if you need one (7-pin to 12-pin) or a 7-pin to 12-pin adaptor.

    Fantastic trip and great sized perfect van. Easy to deal with very helpful and connected the van to our car which was an added bonus. We got quite a bit of wet weather but stayed perfectly dry. Highly recommend

    Panda the expander was great for our family of 4. Our first time in a caravan and it was great! Charles was very easy to deal with and was very helpful and accommodating. We will be booking with him again!
