Pavel and Lucie, husband and wife, founded this establishment because they both needed a way to travel with their children. 

While Pavel builds all of their camper vans, Lucie has worked in the hospitality and customer service industries for many years, so they decided to start this business together.

We immediately found it impressive that they have various camper vans that vary in capacity, amenities, add-ons, and many more. In addition, we particularly liked that all of their camper vans are newly built and regularly maintained.

In our opinion, this gives customers peace of mind that all their vehicles are dependable and safe to drive.

We also appreciate how they provide clients with a detailed description of their camper vans, as we think this allows them to make an informed decision on which vehicle fits their needs.

For those who don’t like driving in a big camper can, we recommend you rent the Camper Pilot, their newest project. We think this camper van is ideal for couples looking to go camping in a compact but fully-equipped vehicle.

That said, we want to mention that this company requires a damage deposit of CAD 1,500 to be paid 14 days before the rental. They also charge an additional fee for the vehicle to be delivered to you. 

Even so, we still think L & P Camper Van Rentals is one of the best van rentals in Vancouver as they provide reliable and fully-equipped vehicles ideal for traveling.

Customer Reviews

Fully-stocked camper vans

“This was our very first time renting a camper van and we had the most amazing experience! We traveled with Simona (van) for 6 days (5 nights) in May with our 10 month old son and dog. The carpentry / design of the van is exquisite and the organization / storage is superb! We appreciated how clean the van was upon pick up, and also how Pavel took his time to teach us about how the van works, etc. Despite the cold nights we were always warm. The fridge had enough space for a weeks worth of food, and we had plenty of fresh water provided. The power unit was especially impressive. We had our baby camera and sound machine on for our son at night, and all our personal electronics were charged. The van is FULLY stocked with everything you may need (+ more) and the bed is super comfortable! Both Lucie and Pavel are helpful, respond quickly and were accommodating with our travel plans. We requested different pick-up / drop-off times (twice due to our schedule changes) and they were so understanding and quick to respond making it a stress free experience. Book them; you won’t regret it. Bonus: you’ll get amazing pictures too! We are excited to rent from them in the future. Thanks again for everything!.” -Liz H.

Honest Camper provides a modern van rental experience ideal for explorers who enjoy traveling in style.

They have three camper van rentals: the Volkswagen Westfalia, Mercedes Metris, and the Mercedes Sprinter. We appreciate that these vans are regularly maintained and checked.

We also liked how this establishment values safety as they provide contactless pick-up and drop-off for customers.

This company provides clients with a video link with an overview of how to use the camper vans. Once you’re done, simply drop off the camper vans in their office, and they’ll take care of the rest.

Honest Camper provides three types of insurance packages. We highly recommend their ‘peace of mind’ package as this covers up to CAD 5 million in liability insurance. 

Now, we were a bit disappointed that they charge an additional fee for airport pick-ups. Take note that Honest Camper also requires a 50% deposit to hold your reservations.

Even so, we liked that they provide discounts for long rentals, so there’s an incentive there. We also liked that their camper vans have backup cameras, which provide customers with a better view of the area behind the vehicle when backing up.

In sum, we believe Honest Camper offers one of the best van rentals in Vancouver as they provide convenient and secure van rentals.

Customer Reviews

Reliable and well-equipped vans

“A very reliable and well-equipped Sprinter van was the guarantee for our wonderful epic Vancouver Island road trip. Thanks also to the Honest Camper team that the whole rental process went smooth and without surprises. We will definitively consider for our next trip. Furthermore we have already recommended Honest campers to some of our friends. Keep on going with the good service. Regards Richard.” -Richard S. 

Comfortable and good to drive

“The van is incredible, confortable, beautiful, good to drive and all the family had lots of fun! William, the owner, was amazing since the beginning until the end of the renting process. I would definetely rent it again.” -Heidi H.

Vancouver Westy Rentals is a camper van rental company in Vancouver that specializes in fully-equipped camper vans that are ready for the outdoors.

We believe this company’s camper vans are ideal for families and groups of friends because they have ample storage space.

We also believe that this allows renters to pack everything they need without worrying about where it will go or whether it will overload the camper van.

Vancouver Westy Rentals offer EuroVans Campers. These vehicles have a vintage and versatile look. After all, they were first introduced in the 1960s.

We found it incredibly reassuring that all vans are subjected to a mechanical safety inspection before each rental. This, in our opinion, gives customers peace of mind that the EuroVans they pick up are in excellent running condition.

In addition, this company also has 24-hour roadside assistance, which we appreciate.

Unfortunately, Vancouver Westy Rentals only offer self-driven camper vans. Despite that, we liked that they provide a 10% discount on rentals longer than 14 days.

Furthermore, many of the customers we’ve spoken with have commented on how clean and well-equipped their camper vans are, making the entire experience fruitful and enjoyable.

All in all, if you’re planning to travel outdoors in style, we highly recommend you rent out a EuroVan Camper van from Vancouver Westy Rentals.

Customer Reviews

Well-equipped vans

“We had a terrific Vancouver Island road trip with one of their apparently older VW Westfalia vans. The van was very well equipped with basically everything you’ll ever need on a road trip like this, and despite its age, handled long periods of driving very well! We also received great service from Sandra, the prices are reasonable and everything was done with exceptional professionalism!It was overall a very pleasant experience, a wonderful way to end the summer! 10/10 would recommend.” -Harry P. 

Clean, well-maintained, and easy to drive

“We had an excellent experience with Vancouver Westy Rentals and Sandra, in particular. The camper van itself was incredibly well equipped and very very clean. Communication with Sandra was excellent and she was very friendly and helpful, providing a number of great tips for our trip. The operating instruction for the van were very thorough. Sandra also went out of her way to drop of a number of items to us that we had accidentally forgotten in the camper van after dropping it off to her. Overall it was a great experience and we would highly recommend Sandra and her company if you are looking for a campervan rental in Van.!.” -Steph M.

Get a Van is a van rental company in Vancouver founded by two couples starting their own family business.

One of our favorite aspects of this company is that all their vehicles are equipped with all-weather tires, making them suitable for driving in any terrain and weather condition.

Furthermore, we liked that all of their vehicles include a backup camera for your safety and convenience when parking.

However, we were dissatisfied that they only have three camper vans available for rent. Even so, we appreciate that they offer a more personalized van rental experience because they have converted their camper vans themselves.

We highly suggest you head to their website and check out their video timelapse on how they assembled their first camper van. In our opinion, we think this is especially useful so clients can have a glimpse of their process. 

We want to mention that they require a 50% reservation deposit to secure your slot. Even so, we liked that they no longer charge damage deposits as they have a contract for additional expenses.

As for insurance options, Get a Van offers three insurance options which include Zero, Essential, and International. These packages vary depending on coverage and insurance claims. 

Unfortunately, they don’t offer any type of glass/windshield/window coverage options, but they are looking to have these added soon. 

Overall, we believe that Get a Van offers one of the best van rentals in Vancouver as they provide a more tailored van rental experience.

Customer Reviews

Great hosts and high-quality vans

“Absolutely perfect experience! My partner and I visited BC for the first time this summer and decided to do a road trip with the fantastic Trudie. We were beyond impressed with the care and creativity that Angie and Toni took to convert this home on wheels. It had everything we needed to make our 6 day adventure a safe and enjoyable one – bed is super comfy, kitchen is large with excellent counter space, shower and toilet work great, lots of storage which we needed as we flew in, and the CUTEST little accents that made us feel at home. The battery and water system worked perfectly – and so many device charging options! Above it all, Angie and Toni were super accommodating and communicative — we couldn’t have asked for better hosts. We will 100% rebook for future road trips. Thank you a million!.” -Dirk D. 

Good communication and friendly staff

“We had the best week of our lives with Trudie. She had everything we needed to live on the road and nothing we didn’t. We made the best memories and we can’t thank Angie & family enough for the best communication, friendliness, and convenience! We will absolutely be renting again!.” -Grace S.

Karma Campervans is open 24 hours a day to accommodate many customers, providing easy-to-drive and comfortable camper vans.

We were impressed by this company’s four-season campervans, which are suitable for any landscape or weather.

In addition, they also have dedicated vans for winter camping that include thick and comfortable beddings, warm duvets, and a built-in heater which we found convenient.

Unfortunately, they only have two office locations in Vancouver and Calgary which we think limits their availability. They also require full payment upon booking.

Even so, we liked that Karma Campervans provides relatively affordable pricing as we think this makes their services more accessible. 

Just when you think their services end there, we noticed that all of their van rental packages include roadside assistance for tire changes, fuel delivery, towing, and other services.

In our opinion, this gives clients peace of mind knowing they are in good hands in an emergency.

Besides this, many of our customers have stated that Karma Campervans exceeded their expectations because their camper vans are incredibly comfortable, simple to drive, and beautifully designed.

If you’re looking for a full-service van rental company, we highly recommend you visit Karma Campervans.

Customer Reviews

Exceeded expectations

“10/10 recommend Karma Camper Vans. My 16 year old daughter and I rented one to see Stevie Nicks at the Gorge Amphitheatre and the van took this epic experience to the next level. Honestly exceeded my expectations and then some. The folks at Karma have truly thought of everything. The bed is super comfy. We never ran out of power. Vans are easy to drive and so beautifully outfitted. Communication with the staff was quick and easy and the orientation video is so good (it made us want to be friends with Dave, lol). If you’ve never been to the Gorge for a concert, it is an absolute MUST! Sharing the beauty of this place and the magic of Stevie Nicks with my daughter in this amazing van was one for the books; I’m having serious concert and campervan separation anxiety. We will most definitely be back for more amazing roadies! Thank you, Karma Campervans.” -Marilee C. 

Easy to drive

“My partner and I rented a van for camping over Easter. Karma Van was amazing, easy to drive, and the team is super friendly. We are excited to do it again soon!.” -Derek S.

These crates contain basic equipment alongside various cooking and camping equipment, so you can go on your journey with complete peace of mind.

Another thing we like about RentACamper Canada is their free camping tour resources, available on their website. With these resources, campers can learn everything from campervan setups to local camping spots.

In short, RentACamper Canada makes camping an enjoyable and hassle-free experience for everyone. We highly recommend them if you’re looking for an affordable alternative to campervan rentals in Vancouver.

Customer Reviews

All the utilities for camping and cooking included

“Thank to this offer we had amazing trip to Canadian Rockies. It was verz comfy and convenient that we had regular size car but transformed into a campervan. And all the utilities for camping and cooking included! Great idea and perfect balance if you want to explore on your own. We were travelling as two girls and this was the simplest and the best scenario. Thank you very much for this experience! We will be remembering long time this trip.” – Anna S.

Gave us everything we needed for our road trip

“My husband and I road tripped around bc and Alberta in August. We rented a dodge caravan and rent a camper quickly installed curtains and a wooden bed frame. They gave us everything we needed for our road trip (kitchen items, pillows, mattress, blankets, gas oven, bear spray, ice box, table, chairs) we were fully equipped. There’s no better way to see bc and Alberta and rent a camper really helped us have the best time and experience.” – Nikki H.

Vantastic Rentals Ltd., founded by Jeff McSweeney, is a camper van rental company based in the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia.

What’s great about them is that they offer a selection of classic Chevy and GMC camper vans that have been fully restored. These vehicles have undergone safety inspections and feature new tires, brakes, and engines, providing a reliable and enjoyable rental experience.

We prefer them because they are situated just 30 minutes away from Kelowna International Airport, Vantastic Rentals provides a convenient location for travelers. They also offer a shuttle service, making it easier for customers to access their rental vans and start their BC escapade promptly.

Renting a camper van from Vantastic Rentals gives you the freedom to create your own itinerary and explore at your own pace.

Unlike others, you can follow suggested routes provided by the company or venture off the beaten path to discover secluded hot springs, waterfalls, hikes, and lakes. Having your own accommodations in the form of a camper van provides convenience and flexibility, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the BC experience.

Although they specialize in classic Chevy and GMC camper vans that offer a unique and nostalgic experience, individuals seeking modern amenities or larger camper van options may find the selection limited.

Customer Reviews

“Super friendly and a great service. We had no problems with the super cool vintage van while beeing 3 months on the road. We can recommend to everyone renting a camper at vantastic rentals.”

“We had a fabulous journey to Banff with one of these fabulous vintage vans! We loved the flexibility of camping on the spot and all of the amenities we needed were on board. The vans are well equipped, well maintained and Jeff was great to work with! We can’t wait to take one out again soon!”

“We had an amazing trip through The Rockies with the 1977 Boogie Van. She was warm and cozy and very reliable. We didn’t want our trip to end in this beauty. Jeff is super nice and helpful. This was a vacation we will never forget!”

Let’sGo Campers is a company that provides its clients with a wide array of unique and customized camper rental services ideal for various adventuring and trail explorations in the area.

With various customized and highly functional campers readily available for rental, we like that they have various amenities readily available for clients to avail of such as picnic chairs, camping gear, and bedding materials among others.

Aside from this, they also capitalize on their highly reliable and transparent transaction processes that made clients sure that no hidden costs are to be applied to the services that they intend to avail of at the last minute.

Note though that there might be slight limitations when it comes to the availability of their camper vans which clients interested in booking may need to book in advance for better procurement of their services.

Nonetheless, with their assistive and prompt customer service, excellent array of camper vans made available, and transparent transactions offered, we highly recommend interested clients to check them out.

Customer Reviews

Here are some reviews from their clients:

“We had an amazing time on the island driving around in ‘Seymore’. Owner was super lovely and helpful throughout. He was flexible with pick up and drop off times which we appreciated. The van is quite vintage and rugged (cool vibe, but not in perfect condition) and did struggle a little when going up hills – especially on dirt/gravel (so allow extra time when travelling). Overall really good experience with this company”

“We enjoyed the use of the truck with a tent on top for one week. Went went to Ralph River Campground in Strathcona Park, Elk Falls Provincial Park and up to San Josef Bay up in Cape Scott Provincial Park with the truck. It was great to be in a 4WD vehicle, rather than in our tiny car. Cam was great to deal with. For the price of the rental, don`t expect a brand new vehicle with all the bells and features. These are reasonably priced rentals in reasonably well condition, and more than adequate to handle highway driving and forest service roads. We will consider renting from LetsGo Campers again when we need a truck and tent combo.”
