Recuerdos de viajes con las caravanas de Braden Arcand

Pros : Very well equipped van. Comfortable seat and very smooth driving. Braden is very reactive to answer your questions before and during the trip.
Cons : Old van (1999) although overall well maintained. Pick up and drop off without the owner being present. Once the bed is open, there's no space behind the front seats, so your bags and the coolers have to go on the passenger seat. Personally, I would not travel as a couple or even with a dog. The bed is not wide either. I would have appreciated if the stuff I didn't need has been removed beforehand to allow for more space but the owner didn't accept.

The van was kitted out with everything you can possible think of for an awesome roadtrip around Vancouver island. The pickup was very easy and Braden was always available to contact if I ever needed to ask a question. The van itself is great to drive even on some of the more sketchy roads of the island. I would definitley recommend this van.

Respuesta de Braden

Thanks Eoin! Glad you had an awesome trip and hope to see you again :)

It was amazing, Thank you Braden! Van The Island has thought of literally EVERYTHING you would need when camping! Van was super clean. The host responded quickly to my questions whether it was before/during the trip, over outdoorsy/email/text. The self check-in/out was seamless and easy. I'd totally rent the van again.

Respuesta de Braden

Thanks Emily :) your feedback means alot to us 😊

Had the best trip around the island with Braden’s camper. The van had everything we needed and more, and Braden is super helpful and attentive. Can’t recommend the stealth caravan enough!

Would highly recommend this van. Communication re pickup was easy and helpful. The van was easy to drive and nicely sized. Everything was immaculately clean, and the van was stocked with everything you could possibly need. Even had fluffy white towels, which was such a treat while out camping. We had a fantastic time exploring the island 😊

Respuesta de Braden

Thank you for the feedback Natalie :) we are stoked you haf a great time! Tell your friends :))

This mini camper packs a lot of comfort into a great little package! We took it up and down the Island, from Port Renfrew to Port Alice, and would absolutely recommend it to friends. Braden is super helpful and provides loads of useful info, the check-in/out process is very easy, and the pickup location is simple to get to from the Nanaimo ferry terminal by bus.

Respuesta de Braden

Thanks a ton for renting the van for your trip Luke :) im glad you had a great time and the van was everything you needed.

Hi,
Was a perfect trip with this van! Bed and pillows were really confortable. The car itself is really easy to drive and is more than full equipped for everything.
Do not hesitate and go :)
