It was so easy to work with CamperVanGuy! He was communicative and reviewed everything necessary at pickup. We rented Kojak and had zero issues and were so happy with our experience. He was responsive during the week we had Kojak and dropoff was straightforward. Thank you for an excellent experience. We’ll be renting again with him next year!

Had an amazing time with the van. Did a large road trip out to Yellowstone and back down the west coast. The van is easy to drive and very cozy. No issues mechanically at all. Jody was always responsive and helpful whenever we had a question. This was our first time ever doing a trip like this, and I would recommend this van wholeheartedly for any other first-timers.

Jody is a total pleasure to communicate with. He’s fast, and very responsive. Our trip to Big Sur was nothing short of epic with kojak. I highly recommend renting with Jody. Was one of the best weekend getaways I’ve ever had!

Our trip in Kojak was the easiest quick get away ever. Picking up and dropping off was a breeze. Kojak let us make a last minute trip to Palm Springs for the tennis tournament and then go over the hills to spend a night and day in the super bloom. From the middle of the action to the middle of the desert. We will definitely rent from CamperVanGuy again.

My wife, adult daughter and I rented Kojak for 4 days in late October for a trip up to Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Parks. We are considering ownership and felt this would be a great way to test out a class B. Jody's location is easy to find and is situated for a quick escape out of LA. He is a really nice guy and spent a lot lot of time going over the operation of the Hymer. The van was super clean and had a well equipped galley that worked beautifully. It handles very well, had plenty of power and a nice tight turning radius. The bathroom worked very well for night time needs and minimalist showers. The heat, AC, and bath fan were excellent. Managing the cassette, new fresh water, and emptying the gray water was easy. It's a well thought out and very functional vehicle. The quarters were tight for 3 people. Our daughter used the Hymer front bed set up. It took up a lot of space in the vehicle and was cumbersome to set up and store. Jody warned us about this and suggested we use a cot instead which he has found to be much easier. I wanted to try it as it came from the factory but I wish I had listened to his suggestion. We have tent camped for years and found camping in the van to be very pleasant. I think it would be perfect for 2 and we plan to rent again to test it out.
Without a doubt, we would rent from Jody again.

We had a great time in Jody's Hymer Activ. We rented the van for 5 days and took it to Shaver Lake, CA. We stayed at a campground that had full hookups but used only the electricity since full hookups really aren't needed with this van. We don't own any camping equipment so we were concerned that we'd get to our location and find that we were lacking something. But we shouldn't have worried because the van comes with everything and more that one would need to make a cozy home away from home. Jody's videos describing the van are very helpful in preparation and he really takes the time during pick-up to make sure you know all that you need to know before heading out to explore the world. Jody also loaned us a bike rack which was great. We were able to ride our bikes around camp and into town. As others have stated the van is super easy to drive. I will say that when a big rig passes you by there's a bit of blow-back so make sure you keep both hands on the wheel and hold her steady!

We had an awesome adventure! My wife, two and a half year old daughter and I hit the road for four days and enjoyed every minute of it. The Hymer Activ was a breeze to drive, and I easily parked in normal parking spaces. The camper was clean, everything worked perfectly. The cassette tank for the bathroom was super convenient. The solar panels kept us all charged up without a worry. We camped for three days with no water or electrical hookups and never had any issues. Jody was super helpful every step of the way. From the minute we arrived to pick the hymer Activ up I knew we made the right decision. Jody made himself available while we were on the road for any questions / concerns. We can't wait to rent from Jody again and get back out on the road. Highly recommended!

Jody was great and made sure we had all that we needed in order to have a great trip. He also made himself available during our travels in case we had any issues along the way. And the Hymer camper van: darn near perfect. Hoping for another adventure in the near future. Thnx Jody, David W

The walk-thru video and Jody's 1 on 1 orientation was comprehensive and thorough. We felt completely prepared to operate every aspect of the vehicle by the time we headed out. We camped and boondocked. The cassette toilet made it easy to use "the facilities" without the hassle of finding a dump station. The Hymer drives beautifully. It’s a great rig and Jody has done a superb job of stocking it with everything you need. Great experience, highly recommend.

We had an a fantastic holiday thanks to Jody and Kojak. Really Kojak did all the work! We saw some amazing sights and went places we would not have done if we were just camping. Kojak was reliable, warm, comfortable and fun. We had a blast and we are already planning our next Kojak adventure. Thanks Jody, and thanks Kojak!
