Fantastic Van! We drove this car from Milan through Switzerland and into the Dolomites! Very practical size for the small mountain roads and steep inclines! No troubles at all. Comfy sleep and storage space available! Antonio & his wife were very helpful and made the experience stress free. They provided us with sites to see and advice on driving in Italy. Very happy! Thankyou!!

We rented a van from Andrea for 6 days and the experience was amazing! Andrea is super nice and helpful! She was answering the phone when ever we had a question or problem. Super recommended

Hi Kathrin & Fee, I hope that you have spent some good time in my Van and in Portugal.Despite the Van has had a problem in the last day of the rent, the communication between us was perfect, thank you for your patient and comprehension.I have not seen my Van yet, because it is still in Faro waiting to get up to Lisbon, but i believe that you have treated my Van as if it was yours.I just want to say that you & Fee are two lovely girls, with a very good energy, it was a pleasure to meet you both, and i hope you return some day.Have a nice return home!Thank you! 😀Nuno

It was all as described, the people were very friendly, flexible and understanding. The van is old but ruins very well, managing all the hills and all. The bed is reasonably comfortable. There are a few tricks to operating it, but it's all quite easy and the owner explains it all very well. The only issue for us was that the van has no storage space and you can't leave the bed open while driving. Maybe it's fine if you stay in one place for longer, but since we were driving to a new place every day, we constantly had to move all of our luggage to the front to make space for the bed, then fold the bed and move everything to the back to make space for driving. It's a wasted hour or more every day and it's just frustrating. I'm not sure much can be done since it's a small vehicle so there just isn't much space to play with. But also, we wish we said we don't need all the camping and cooking equipment it comes with and would rather just have empty cupboards where we can store our stuff. Or maybe it's ok if you're traveling lighter than us (we had three sizable backpacks).

Hice un viaje familiar con la autocaravana y fue una gran experiencia que repetiré. El dueño es muy majo, cercano y muy amable. El vehículo fue bien pero nos causo algun problemilla con el aire acondicionado, aunque no lo necesité mucho, pero en algún momento se echo de menos. La autocaravana es la que se ve en la foto tal y como es, algunas cosas mas viejas y quizas si necesitara alguna reformilla pero no engaña. Recomiendo su uso como opción para no hacer muchos kilómetros, en mi caso fue todo el pais vasco francés y de lujo. Un saludo.

We had an incredible experience renting a Van42. It's an old car and its tiny so beware of that before you book, but we were so we enjoyed it a lot! The car got us 1301 km in our 13 days and we got to the top of Torres and back down with no troubles. The car does have difficulties with starting in the morning but Pedro instructed us on how to use the choker, so we managed but it did lead to some interesting mornings! Overall we had a great time and loved our almost two weeks in the little baby blue van - once in a life time experience. Pedro helped us out with camping chairs, blankets, pillows and such. And he was super flexible with the return. Such a fun time, thank you so much Pedro!!

The trip was very nice we had a blast! And the Caravan was also perfect to our needs, we named it Vampira :) Henrique was always very responsive and did everything in the right way. When we got there he explained how everything works and off we went. I would rent Vampira again and recommend it for future travellers as well.

We had a fantastic time in Pedro's van! Pedro was a great communicator and made the process run smoothly and easily. We have made lots of great memories in this van and would absolutely recommend it to anyone else :)

Frigorífico Nevera no enfría Congelador no congela No cierra bien la puerta Se salen las cosas al abrir la puerta, no tiene sujeción Aire acondicionado No funciona 3 días asfixiados. Una mañana y una tarde perdidas intentando arreglarlo. (Tarde del 4 y mañana del 7) Muebles Encima mesa cimbrean al ir circulando El asiento contrario al sentido marcha tiembla y hace mucho ruido. El mueble superior del baño no tiene cierre y con coche en marcha tiembla y hace ruido Puertas Las del piloto y copiloto tiemblan y entra aire Habitáculo hay que cerrarla con fuerza o se queda abierta Ventanas Litera baja, está rota, no puede abrirse La de la cocina se salió y no volvió a bajar Batería Día 8 no tiene batería. Tuvimos que llamar al seguro que nos mandó grúa. El de la grúa nos mandó a un taller o desactivar la batería cada vez que paráramos los 5 días restantes. Conducción La primera cuesta meterla No puedes pasar de 90, todo tiembla Se viene abajo en las cuestas. Con 5% de pendiente no pasa de 70 y tienes que reducir a 4ª. Con el viento hay apretar el volante, la dirección no se siente segura Seguridad Un solo chaleco para una autocaravana de 6 personas Un solo triángulo (obligatorio) Nos revienta una rueda (por qué?, según el mecánico, porque son recauchutados y no soportan los 70 grados del asfalto) y la rueda de repuesto es del 2001 (no apta para su uso).

We traveled with Cesar's Van for 25 days on the north coast of Spain and all of Portugal. The experience was amazing! The car has everything you need for a fun and safe trip. The car is in excellent condition, there were no problems and the ride was smooth, even on steep and winding roads. Communication was done through Cesar's son and nephew, who speak English, are very nice and helpful. Thank you Cesar for a perfect honeymoon.

We had the most amazing trip in the van. It was well kitted out with everything we needed for a fun and relaxing camping experience. The van was clean and tidy and drove well. The process to book, pick up and deliver was smooth and well communicated. Jose was very friendly and easy to deal with. We highly recommend booking with Jose!

Fue un placer alquilar a Aleix y Andrea. Son campistas entusiastas y experimentados. Fueron receptivos y comunicativos tanto antes como durante la experiencia, y devolvieron nuestra camper en excelentes condiciones después de su viaje de 10 días por Cataluña. Totalmente recomendable - 100%!

Very friendly and reliable owner. The camper is very new, full equipped. Beds are quite comfortable. The camper is diesel operated, and consumes circa 10l 100 km. In general, friendly and competent owners, I would recommend
