About Natalie Ellis
Hi! We're Natalie & Darragh, a Brit & an Aussie who have been living in Vancouver since 2018. Our van, Vincent, was a pandemic project - we bought an old van and turned it into our camper. You can see more about the conversion process on instagram - @camper.converts

We had such a great week traveling around in Vincent! It has everything you need for a great camping trip and Natalie was very helpful and supportive with everything as well!

Overall, great first vamping experience for us! Perfect way to explore Vancouver Island a bit. There were a few things that were a little rough around the edges with the van, but everything important was functional, and there were no issues with anything under the hood. These were a few of the things that came as a bit of a surprise when we showed up to pick up the van that I wish had been advertised a bit more accurately:
- The sliding door came unlatched a couple of times after hitting small bumps in the road, and we’d have to pull over to close the door
- The passenger seat was torn.
- The ice packs / cooler system only kept things cold for about 2 days, even when running the refrigeration when driving.
- The rubber door seal for the sliding door fell off a few times, and we had to put it back up.
- You have to use a provided padlock system to lock the doors if you leave the van, which wasn’t a huge deal, but it was a minor inconvenience at times.

Natalie was wonderfully responsive, flexible, kind, and accommodating throughout our whole experience on this trip! Vincent Van Gogh was a pleasure to take on the road, and an excellent travel companion. I would highly recommend Natalie as a superb host to set you up for your journey!

We had a really good time with Vincent, the van was really comfortable and full of everything we would ask for our camping trip through the Rockies! Natalie and Darragh also were very kind with before and during the rent!

We enjoyed our trip with Natalie and Darragh’s Van! Communication with them was very easy and very responsive.
For our first Van trip, they helped us to better organise our trip by sharing their past experiences and gave us useful tips.
They are making sure from the start to the end that everything goes very smooth.
Everything is provided with the Van, just come with your smile! :)

We had such a great time with Vincent and can only recommend to rent this van. Natalie and Darragh, who were very kind hosts, put a lot of thought into their van and its interior. Also, the communication before and during our trip was very quick and easy. In total we had the van for 16 days for a tour through the Rockies and for us it was the perfect way to travel.

Natalie and Darragh were terrific hosts! They answered our questions promptly and their guide was very comprehensive, providing all the information we needed about the van. They were very accommodating and we would rent with them again!

It was so easy booking with Natalie! The tour of the van was seamless and made me feel confident to take it on the road. It was easy to drive and we didn't have any issues parking in and around the city.
The van was clean with lovely bedding and pillows. I loved the reading lights and remote controlled heating.
I would highly recommend taking a trip with Vincent !

The overall experience was absolutely incredible! The van was so well build and had everything we need. Sleeping the two of us was so comfortable and with so much space. Driving the van was so smooth, easy to control and miniver even though it was so big.
Natalie was so accommodating and fell able always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. This was my first time using outdoorsy and we had an absolutely incredible time. I would highly recommend renting Vincent VanGo through Natalie.
