Merrin 5.0We had a great trip in the van.
Gemma 5.0Mat and Babe were great to deal with, very friendly and accommodating. Ernie the van is exactly what you'd expect from a mid 80s hiace, it's easy to drive, chugs along well but is not shiny and new. We spent 8 days in Ernie as for a climbing trip, it was a great van for our purposes and is fairly priced. If you're tossing up between a rental car and tent or hiring Ernie, go Ernie. It was great returning to a dry warn spot we could stand up in at the end of each day, the solar power also worked really well.
Lola 5.0Our trip with Ernie was perfect. Ernie is the perfect travel friend and his age doesnt prevent him from being a pleasant driver. Thanks to Matt for his responsiveness and to Daniel for his kindness and availability.
Mick 5.0Ernie was a joy. Everything you needed for a few nights. Mat was great to deal with. Highly recommended
Lisa 5.0We had a great experience , look forward to renting off Mat again in the future
