    We had a great time travelling up the east coast of Tassie in this van. Drives really well, well equipped with everything you need, comfortable and clean. Ali and Rian were very communicative and would even give us a heads up when the aurora australis was visible. They were extremely accommodating in arranging pick up and drop off, and really pleasant to deal with, with great suggestions for places to check out. Thanks guys

    Ali and Rian are just the best for hiring a van to drive through Tasmania. Weve stayed the first night in their BnB, so we could freshly start our travels in the morning. Whenever we needed info or tips, they are there for you. The van is excactly what you need for a decent roadtrip, not to big and everything inside to camp of the grid. We felt very comfortable driving the van: well maintained and practical. They are located near the airport, so we could enjoy our trip to the maximum. Besides all that, they are great people that enjoy their guests to have a good time.

Van Experiences Tasmania started in May 2023. We're here to help shape your holiday into a memorable, personal and enjoyable experience. Van experiences Tasmania has 4 campervans. Each are custom built slightly different and fully equipped for whatever you want and need for your road trip around Tassie! Both Rian and Ali have lived in Tasmania for a large portion of their lives, and within that time they have experienced most of what the beautiful island has to offer and are happy to share any information you need. We are still finding new pockets of interesting and beautiful things to this day! We look forward to helping you make your Van Experience around Tasmania something special!
