About Carissa and Tom's RV rentals
We're Tom and Carissa, proud owners of Vancouver Campervans. Our journey began in 2020 when we rented a campervan and explored beautiful British Columbia. Experiencing the freedom to travel and maintain a balanced life inspired us to share this opportunity with others. As passionate entrepreneurs and avid travellers, we juggle our businesses while embarking on exciting adventures or hitting the gym for some gains. We're thrilled to connect with like-minded individuals who share our love for exploring the world and creating lasting memories. Looking forward to meeting you on the road!

Memories made on trips with Carissa and Tom Campervan's RVs

We had a great time traveling the Sea to Sky highway in Carissa and Tom's van. The bed was comfortable, and they had all the amenities needed for a 5 day trip! Even little extras like bug spray, mini lights, and various power cords. Communication was perfect as well. We couldn't be happier with our decision to use their van!

Terrible experience with owners and outdoorsy !
Van had an issue with front breaks due to a lack of maintenance from the owners, when breaks made a screeching sound we advised both owners and outdoorsy. We wasted 2 days of our honeymoon trip to get repairs from a nearby garage advised by outdoorsy support.
Total of repairs was 999.94 $ to change calipers, rotors and break pads. All these part are car wear parts, so we cannot be held accountable for these damages, but yet the owner asked us at first to pay half of the repairs, we refused. When she had the amount announced by mechanic, she asked if it was possible to do only break pads, which was impossible, or if we could drive to Vancouver (200km) without breaks properly functionning so she could take care of repairs herself to of course, spend less money, the mechanic adivsed her that it was totally unsafe as it was metal against metal and the overheat could make some serious damages to the van and to ourselves. Meaning that she considered, maybe just for a second, putting me and my pregrand wife in danger during our honeymoon just to save some dollars. She then paid the whole amount to the garage, letting us know that the issue was solved.
We made the van drop-off to owner place the next day, they never mentionned the issue and we left in "good terms". But later that day we received an email from Carissa stating the course of events (in a way that could fit her narrative), and then we received an email from outdoorsy stating that we could be held responsible for repairs, but not just half of it but the whole amount !
This is a total outrage from both owners and outdoorsy, owners for their lack of honesty and greed, and outdoorsy for their lack of support.
The case is not closed yet, we won't accept this terrible situation.

We had the most lovely 8 nights in Carissa and Toms van. It had everything provided that we needed for a comfortable and easy stay. They took the time to send some personalised recommendations of places to go and things to do and were very responsive to any messages on outdoorsy. The car was easy to drive, especially coming from England and needing to adjust to driving the other side of the road! Would recommend this vehicle for all.

Carissa and Tom were nothing short of amazing in regard to all things van related. The communication was great, the van drove like a dream and had everything I could have possibly needed included! The mattress was so comfortable and I truly had the trip of a lifetime through the Canadian Rockies. Thanks again guys, everything was truly appreciated!!

Exploring Canada with the Campervan was an awesome experience. It was our first time in canada and our first time camping at all. So the van is also suitable for beginners. You get everything you need for your trip. The van is very well equipped. There was even a bear spray on board. Luckily we didn't need it. You can connect almost any smartphone, as Carissa and Tom provide useful adapters. And the car itself made a pretty good job. We drove about 3500 km in 3 weeks and it coped with every route. Even the roads near whistler were no problem although it's like a rollercoaster going up and down.
I would therefore recommend this great customized campervan to anyone planning a trip through British Columbia and Alberta.

A friend and I recently rented the Dodge Campervan for a road trip around BC and Alberta and covered about 2700 km in 10 days! The interior was thoughtfully designed, offering storage space and all the essentials, including a stove and refrigerator, making it easy for us to prepare meals on the go. The paddle boards were a great bonus and enhanced the Canadian lakes experience. The bed was surprisingly super comfortable, enabling a good night sleep after a day of exploring.
Carissa and Tom took the time to show us how everything worked, offered tips on sites worth seeing and useful stores along the way, and even provided some extra amenities to make our journey more enjoyable. They were very fast to answer and provided all the necessary information in the weeks in the run up to our trip.

Tom & Carissa were so easy to organise everything with. Their campervan is absolutely perfect for a couples roadie and we had a blast exploring BC. The bed is super comfy and the van ran really well with no issues. Tom and Carissa have kitted it out really well and have thought of everything you might need! The paddle boards were an awesome addition for our trip! Thanks guys 😊

We recently rented a minivan from Carissa for a 5-day trip and covered 600 kilometers. The van was in excellent condition and felt like brand new, demonstrating how well-maintained it is. It was surprisingly good on gas, which was a big plus for our journey. The minivan was perfect for us as a couple, offering plenty of storage room for all our belongings. The bed was super comfy, ensuring we had restful nights throughout our trip. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable vehicle. We'll definitely rent from them again!
