Katy et Thomas sont super accueillants et hyper sympathiques. Ils nous ont mis à l'aise avec le VAN et ça a découlé sur le voyage. Effectivement le VAN a été parfait pendant 10 jours, il roule parfaitement et est super bien entretenu et aménagé.

Perfect in every way. We loved the Glamper for out trip to and around Vancouver Island.
Katy and Thomas are fantastic hosts - amazing communication, flexible and very helpful in every way! The Glamper was an absolute dream and we would recommend anytime. We had all we needed and even more - slept better than in bed at home. :)
Thanks to Katy and Thomas and biggest recommendation!

The grand glamper is in outstanding condition and is exceptionally well-maintaned. Its many simple but ingenious features made our week very comfortable -- and we are not young people, so being comfortable is not readily achieved! Katy and Thomas could have custody of my first-born, oversee my aging parents' finances, and be trusted with my visa for a night on the town -- no questions asked. They were supportive and friendly and professional and generally just ducky.

Oh my goodness what a wonderful review!! Thank you so much Lini for your kind words. We are so thrilled you and your husband had such a fantastic trip in our Glamper! Looking forward to hosting you again soon.

Hand-over and return was delightful, because it was real people expressing their knowledge and joy in sharing …. Comfortable van ( although limited headroom to sit up in bed) that drove well and easily. Good fit-out within a compact vehicle - the advantage being stealth camping, with dis-advantage (if you’re stuck with wet weather) being restricted space. Lovely people to deal with - recommended !

The perfect vehicle for going on an adventure. I loved my experience with this car. System for getting water is great and everything is easy to access. I recommend it to anyone who wants to save money.

100% recommend renting Katy & Thomas’s Grand Glamper Van!! Not only are they both very helpful and nice, but they’re also always available and reply quickly to any question you may have.
To top that off, their van is really well designed and thought through. We travelled 2 weeks in it all around BC and Vancouver island and it was perfect! It’s not too big like other camper-vans so it’s easy to drive and get around to different places, all while fitting plenty of luggage and stuff in it! (Keep in mind that it is not a 4WD, so we stayed off the logging roads though). The van is all decked up for cooking, eating and chilling and has a very comfortable bed for two (if you are over 6 feet tall you might be a little squished but it’s really not that bad and works fine). The added plus is the little TV! We got to watch two movies which was great :) Overall we highly recommend renting this van!

We had such an incredible trip in Thomas & Katy's Grand Glamper!! We spent 5 gorgeous nights camping around the Squamish and Whistler area. The sleeping area was big enough for me and my partner to sleep comfortably, even at my height of 6'2". The storage setup was super clever, which allowed us to store all of our belongings safely while we hiked during the daytime. The van was extremely well-equipped (it even came with olive oil, salt & pepper, and ground coffee!!) which made our experience even better. We were able to travel to some remote locations down well-maintained fire roads, which the van handled well. Katy and Thomas were wonderful hosts - excellent communication, and even recommended some special spots to visit in the Squamish area. If we're ever back in BC, we'd rent again from Katy and Thomas in a heartbeat!

Could not have had a better experience for our first time camping in a van! Katy and Thomas were very responsive and really made sure that we had everything we needed for a successful trip. The van itself drives very well and was super comfortable! The awning was really nice to have, and all of the equipment included was straightforward to use and very efficient. We ended up with very cold weather on our camping trip but were totally fine with the blankets provided in the van. Would definitely rent from them again!

Wow! An unforgettable adventure in the “Grand Glamper.” Our experience with Katy & Thomas was top notch. They spent time with us ensuring we were comfortable & answered any questions we had, and explained everything to us thoroughly. The van itself was great to drive, and had everything you could think of & need. The bed was comfortable and easy to set up, and the warm duvet (& extra blankets) were great for our colder nights! The window coverings provided us with a complete black
Out experience, which allowed us to sleep in a little and made us feel comfortable in the van, no matter where we were. Cooking in the van was great, and we found it helpful having the trunk of the van as an awning. The yeti cooler was easy to access and was more than enough space for 9 days of fridge storage. Speaking of storage- there were endless spots to place our stuff throughout the van- which helped us keep the space tidy and organized. The Thule rack was AMAZING for our luggage! 10/10 recommend! Thank you K & T!

Katy was informative about the vehicle. The vehicle has everything we need. Being able to cook in the back of the car was great when it is raining. The unlimited kilometer is a huge bonus. Overall the whole experience was amazing. 5 stars to both Katy and the vehicle.

The Grand Glamper was the perfect choice for my girlfriend and I’s week long trip from Vancouver to Banff to Jasper. Katie was pretty much the sweetest person I ever met, and the van was a dream. It has everything you could possibly need and a really comfy bed. We absolutely will be renting the grand glamper again for future road trips.

Katy & Thomas put so much love and effort in the campervan! It contains everything you need for comfy camping.
Also they are such lovely and friendly personalities! I had great three weeks with the campervan and I would do it again.
Thank you very much!
