We had a great time on our holiday in the off-road Forbes 12 that we hired. It had everything we needed: big fridge, diesel heater, shower/toilet, solar, all the cooking essentials, great outdoor kitchen and to top it off, the most comfy bed! Rob, Andrew and Julie were fantastic to deal with and I would recommend them and hiring their van anyday. We will be back!

This was my first experience on Camplify. Robert, Andrew and Julie made it very easy from pick up to drop off. The Forbes 12+ was just as described and more. I didnt really need to bring anything but bedding and food as they provided everything you can think of. Very well equipped. The van was easy to tow and comfortable. We would happily book this again.

We've just spent a very enjoyable four days off-grid in the Flinders Ranges with this van. It has all the creature comforts incl. a very comfortable king size bed, hot water, fridge/freezer & everything we needed in terms of cooking, eating & washing. And the owners are great people to deal with - faultless. All in all, a great experience.

Andrew was great, on time, patient and clear explaining how the van works and what we needed to do. Andrew was always available to answer any questions. The van has everything you need for your trip. We had a great time and the van worked great. Thanks Andrew!

Great little van! Andrew was very friendly and thorough with the run through on pick up and made us feel comfortable. Van towed beautifully behind our MU-X with no issues. Highly recommended. Thank you.
