WHAT A VAN!My partner and I found this beautiful Hiace when planning a last minute road trip with some friends. It's gorgeous in its simplicity and has been done up so elegantly, very much in keeping with the original interior. Of course this means that it doesn't have the same facilities as a modern van, but who cares when it's so damn cute!?Pedro is a DREAM host! He was super informative when we first picked up the van, available whenever we had questions whilst out on the road and super accommodating with all of our needs. We ran into a couple of minor issues along the way and he helped make everything so easy! Positive things of note - the bed is surprisingly comfy; the hob and sink are more than adequate for a week away; the moving parts for all the facilites (expandable roof, fold out table etc.) all work well. If you plan on doing lots of wild camping, we strongly recommend getting the solar shower extra.Things to be aware of (Pedro will definitely fill you in on all of these) - the gear stick is very old and funky and takes quite a while to get used to, but we both managed it after an hour or so (Pedro will come with you for a test drive should you think you need it); the engine is in the drivers cabin and it's quite easy to burn your legs on the metal work when it gets hot, it's not severe but just watch the back of your legs; there is no power steering which is fine if you can handle the arm work outs on tight corners; make sure to ask Pedro about the safety switch!!!SO basically, you're getting THE REAL DEAL with this one. We are so happy with our experience and hopefully get to ride with Alberto again one day (we named it after the previous owner hehe)

We absolutely loved our first campervan experience. Catia was lovely and so knowledgeable- she gave us clear instructions relating to everything and was on hand if we needed help when we were on our trip. The campervan was perfect, just as described, super clean and tidy. Catia provided sheets and towels for a small extra cost which meant we could travel light to get to the campervan - this was ideal, she also provided a small welcome pack which was super kind of her - we would 100% book this campervan again.

We had such a lovely holiday roaming around Mallorca in Romerita. It it a lovely van that is equiped with everything you need to enjoy an outdoor adventure. Also, Gabi (the owner of Romerita) was very nice and accommodating with our requests and has a very helpful guide put together that came in handy! Thank you!

We had an amazing trip with John’s campervan! The van was perfectly equipped, John was very responsive and helpfull if we had any questions. Pro tip: ask for a testdrive or how to drive this baby, it will make your trip even smoother :). Thanks again John and Tiago for making our trip to Portugal unforgettable ❤️

Well equipped campervan which is easy to drive. The owners were really responsive and were happy to assist with any queries we had. Would highly recommend.

We couldn't have been happier with Ruben and his wonderful RV. Ruben was very responsive on comms before we arrive and during our trip. He explained everything about the RV clearly and wanted us to have the best experience possible (which we did!). The RV itself worked perfectly and was nice to drive, it had everything we needed, I can't recommend Ruben/the RV enough!

Hired the 2 berth motorhome but on collected Julie upgraded us to the 5 berth and I'm glad she did it was fantastic, lots of room and easy to operate everything, we did get stuck on the panel for hot water but Julie told me what to do and it was sorted. Highly recommend hiring from them such a lovely couple and always on hand if you need them, thanks Julie

It was a wonderful experience renting from Andre and Raquel, they are super helpful and kind and always available when needed. The motorhome is very well maintained, very nicely designed and equipped and very comfortable! We would surely rent from them again!

Gil is the man -- made everything so easy and such a great communicator. Next time I'm back in portugal I'd be grateful to take Anchor for an adventure again.

Great trip and great experience around Portugal. Alessandro gave us great advice on where to go and was great to deal with. Would 100% recommend 👌

All smooth! Maria and her husband are great , communicative and the van exceeds expectations! All in all a great experience!

Great couple of days! highest quality and great service!!

Spent 5 days travelling around Portugal in this campervan, was great, no major problems! Not the fastest but full of character. Also Diogo was incredibly helpful, couldn't reccomend highly enough.

We had a great time in Gilles beautiful motorhome. It’s very modern, with a practical layout and a good use of the space. It’s very easy to drive and was remarkably good on fuel too. It was very clean and is fully equipped with everything we needed to cook our meals. Gilles is a nice guy, very friendly and helpful, and we had a full briefing of all the features before we left. He even gave us a lift back to the ferry port when we returned. Thank you Gilles! Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans le magnifique camping-car de Gilles. Il est très moderne, pratique et bien agencé, et l'espace est optimisé. Il est très facile à conduire et consomme très peu de carburant. Il était très propre et entièrement équipé, avec tout le nécessaire pour cuisiner. Gilles est un homme sympathique, très aimable et serviable, et nous avons eu droit à un briefing complet sur toutes les caractéristiques avant notre départ. Il nous a même ramenés au port de ferry à notre retour. Merci Gilles !

We absolutely loved our trip- it was a real throwback in time. For an old van, it drives surprisingly well and has everything you need, and more! Gil and Nelson were very helpful, we would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience. Hope to be back someday !

Amazing camper with everything you could possibly think of, easy exchange, hassle free

Absolutely UNREAL. These legends will go above and beyond to help out if anything, and I mean anything goes wrong! Unreal tips, great campers but most of all unreal, reliable customer service and support when you’re out in mallorca and don’t know a thing about the place! Can’t recommend these guys enough. Will definitely return and will be suggesting this exact owner to my buddies 🤙🏽 ⛰️ 🌊 ☀️ Thanks for the amazing trip.

From the get go we were welcomed and greeted with a great attitude. We got picked up from the train station to the van hire location and spoke the entire drive getting to know each other. We then got a full detailed break down of everything required and more for the van and added the portable toilet on the day as we thought it would be a good extra to have just in case, Claudio was very flexible with extras and add ons which was fantastic. After detailing the car from top to bottom we set off to explore the Dolomites for 10 days! Exchanging a few messages on the way regarding the car we were responded to swiftly with any questions we had, no matter how big or small Claudio answered us immediately which is the best thing you could ask for. We arrived back after 10 days with 0 problems with the car and nothing but the best time we could have had. All in all it was top tier experience with the car and the owner, went up and beyond to do anything and be as helpful as possible and we appreciated every step of the way. You won’t be disappointed with the service you will receive from hiring from Claudio. Much appreciation from 2 Aussies!

We found the pick up location really easy, could get the tram/bus from Nantes if you didn’t want to take taxi. Good run through of how the camper works and where everything is. I cannot speak French and we were able to communicate rather seamlessly! Lots of space, chairs and tables were handy and there was also a BBQ included. Car wash and refuelling only 5mins away from drop off too which made that simple. Would definitely hire again

Andrea and his van were amazing!!! Couldn’t recommend more!
