    We had a fantastic experience with the campervan! Everything was exactly as described, very clean and well prepared. The handover was smooth, and communication was excellent throughout. Highly recommended!

    The van is great it will go forever, loved driving it. The fitout is however very basic and tired and in need of an upgrade. The electrical system has been 'worked on' just before our hire. We had no power for the whole 10 days unless we booked into a powered site. The fridge and lights worked but that was it without an extension cord through the window. Back door tricky to close, sharp staples inside the shelves, no Bluetooth connection, awnings were missing parts so couldn't be used. Petra was great with communication, she tried to help but we weren't confident to mess with the electrical system. The experience was a bit disappointing but we still got to stay in the Daintree.
