Absolutely fantastic! Our experience renting this very comfortable and beautiful van in Scotland was simply exceptional. From the very first contact, the comfort and beauty of the vehicle impressed us. It was spacious, well-equipped, and incredibly comfortable for tackling the Scottish roads, even the most winding ones. Special praise goes to the owner, whose kindness and helpfulness made our arrival and departure a breeze. Being picked up directly at the airport was a very thoughtful gesture, and the detailed and clear explanation of how the van worked immediately made us feel safe and ready for the adventure. He was very good because we don't speak English. The fact that he took the time and found a way to communicate clearly with us, despite the language barrier, demonstrates true customer care and great humanity. He immediately made us feel welcome and supported, eliminating any potential worries related to understanding the instructions. This additional gesture of thoughtfulness and kindness significantly contributed to making our trip even more peaceful and enjoyable. It's rare to find such a level of dedication and helpfulness! The van itself was a real gem: well-maintained interiors, comfortable beds, and everything necessary for a carefree road trip. Driving through the breathtaking landscapes of Scotland aboard this van was a real pleasure, helping to make our wonderful trip unforgettable. We highly recommend renting this van to anyone wishing to explore Scotland in total freedom and comfort. The customer service and quality of the vehicle were impeccable. A five-star experience!

The most amazing luxurious adventure ever! The minivan is clean, cozy, well-equipped and perfect for a 2 people adventure. Derek and his son were great and made our check-in experience fast and supporting. They were always on-hand for any question and gave us a van in perfect shape. Everything worked perfectly, from the cookers, the sink and the fridge too. There is plenty of space for comfy dining and sleeping, and there is enough room for luggages and groceries. The bed is very comfortable and the sleeping linen Derek provided were clean and soft, it was like sleeping at home! The engine worked greatly too and we did not have any single issue. I totally recommend this van for your adventure; you won’t regret it! I hope I’ll be able to have another trip with Derek’s van soon. May 2025

Thanks to Derick and Craig for a great trip. The van is very new and in great condition. All features and functionality worked as described. Adaptive Cruise Control, Android auto etc very useful including cables for both iphone and android. The diesel heater is very fuel efficient and quiet so can be ran overnight on a low setting if you're somewhere particularly windy and/or chilly. We also found closing the pop top roof overnight improved insulation of both sound and heat. Be sure to either disable internal interior monitoring, or use the central locking button on the drivers side, when locking the van to sleep overnight. Otherwise, the van will auto lock and any movement inside will trigger the alarm. We had a great time up north. Thanks again for all your help April 2024

This was a wonderful experience for us. Pickup was easy and we were shown all the features of the van and how to operate everything before we set off. When we had questions during our trip, an answer via Whatsapp was almost immediate. When we do another trip like this, I would happily rent this again! September 2023

Wij hebben een week door Schotland gereden in een geweldige Camperbus. Alles was zo goed geregeld met Derek. Hij pikte ons op vanaf het vliegveld en nam rustig de tijd om alles uit te leggen hoe alles aan de Camperbus functioneert. Omdat wij met het vliegtuig kwamen lagen er in de camper handdoeken en warme slaapzakken (super schoon) voor ons klaar. De Camperbus was van alle gemakken voorzien👌🏻 bij vragen aan Derek over de camper of omgeving antwoordde hij heel snel en gaf nuttige aanvullende informatie over de omgeving. Wij zijn dus erg tevreden en raden Derek en zijn Camperbus aan iedereen aan! July 2023
