1976 Volkswagen Bus Riviera Pop-Top Camper (Automatic)

We really had a great time driving around in this little van for a week. We give it an overall five star review, but if you're thinking of renting this vehicle, we highly recommend that you consider seriously your capacity to manage aq finicky old vehicle with a lot of quirks. You most definitely need some working knowledge - we used to own one of our own, which is why we took this trip. This is not an easy vehicle to drive given it's lack of power steering, turn radius and overall finicky personality. We also had a lot of problems with the electrical system. We had to jumpstart the vehicle twice (the owners provide a battery pack for that and it worked great!) Sadly, we were unable to charge any of our phones for the entire trip, or use the cooler as an electric cooler or the water system, because the secondary electrical system simply would not work. I am 100% positive the owners will address this, as they were really great to communicate with and very apologetic. For us, it was no problem, we just found coffee shops and places where we could grab a quick charge and fill up out water bottles. If you can manage it, then you're guaranteed an really amazing adventure!
