Shane 5.0We hired Michelle's van and camped in an off grid camp-site for a week. The van was easy to tow, easy to set up, and came with everything we needed for a relaxing holiday, including camp chairs, beach towels, torches, etc. The Van and its inclusions made for a great getaway.

About the owner
We are a family of 5 who live in Bayside, Melbourne. We purchased our van in 2017 to give our kids the ultimate childhood of exploring different places in our beautiful country. Now we want to help other families have that same experience of being in the great outdoors.
