Recommendations• The opportunities on Vancouver Island are endless. Grizzly viewing, storm watching, rain forests, hiking through wilderness or just sitting by the beach watching a sunset.
• We recommend you google the island and see what resonates with you. There is a back roads map book in the van which can help with camping and ideas of where to go and what to see.
• No matter where the road takes you we promise you will have the trip of a lifetime!
Other things to noteBecause "Goldie" is a 1985 van she must be driven with a light hand. You must remember to take off ebrake and if using the awning you have to tie down in case of a wind in the night. There are many quirky things like the back door lock which needs some patience plus putting up the roof can be a challenge. Needs abit of know how and strength. "Goldie" is delightful to drive and she is maintained after every trip yet be prepared for anything and everything. Oh and waving at other VW vans on the road is a must! After all you are driving a classic.

Our family of four had a great time (two teenagers, two adults).
- The hosts are delightful and easy to coordinate with.
- The van works perfectly and was good to drive.
- The van is extremely well equipped with everything we needed, even games, frisbee, hammock, coffee, tea, towels, headlamps…
- Special mention for the great pillows and nice bedding/sheets for four people.
- It was easy to book different campsites around Vancouver Island, all different and beautiful.
We look forward to our next van adventure!

We had a fantastic holiday with Sonny, the hosts were amazing and showed us everything we needed to know as well as giving us some lovely information about Vancouver Island. We had everything we needed for a memorable adventure around the island, the Tommy Bahama chairs were great for sunbathing at the side of lakes, rivers and beaches and the fire pit was awesome as a fire ban came into place and it allowed us to still have a fire in the evenings :) Honestly one of the best things we have done was renting this camper and setting off on an adventure around the island, hiking, chilling by rivers and lakes, surfing tofino, walking in old growth forests, stopping in awesome cafes and cooking up a storm in campsites and on the beach. Take your home on the road! Would 100% recommend!!
