Owner speaks only Italian so communication is with Google translate and hands. The owner offered to drop off and pickup the Campervan from the airport. We didn't talk about the price for this service. When we dropped off the Campervan we were surprised to find out that we were charged 200 Euro for this service. Other than that everything else was fine.

Visiting from the US on a cycling vacation with my son. The van was perfect! Fully self contained, and much easier to navigate and park than a typical camping car. Put the bikes in the racks provided, through our gear on our bunks and we were off. Zero problem finding places to sleep/camp on the fly. Also have to mention that Oli is as a wonderland host. Highly recommended.

Excellent experience with Ninon and Jerome. We had three of us in the van and Jerome lent us his 3 bike rack which made traveling and biking the French alps a breeze. As well the van is the perfect size for European roads - some of our friends had a longer van that was much more difficult to navigate the tight mountain roads. They also provided some great dinner and camping recommendations for the couple nights we spent in Annecy! Thanks again Ninon and Jerome!

Impresionante vehículo en estado impacable. Explicaciones muy útiles y detalladas de todo el funcionamiento que junto con la predisposición a ayudarnos ante cualquier duda, nos permitieron disfrutar plenamente de la experiencia. Totalmente recomendable!!

The Westfalia James Cook is awesome. Francisco and Antonio are awesome. :) My partner and I had a great time cruising from Lisbon up to Porto and back camping at beaches along the way. We highly recommend these owners and their excellent "Slim Jim" (our nickname for the camper). Slim Jim was in excellent shape and super easy to operate and drive. No issues. One note: lengthwise, the bed easily accommodates a 6'1" person (6'3"-ish is probably the limit). This was awesome. My partner and I preferred this bed to the hotel beds we had in Lisbon. Thumbs up! We would definitely rent this camper from Francisco again.

Lovely couple and a pleasure to deal with. Would happily hire out to them again (should they so wish to rebook!)

We will write this review from the perspectives of the Three passengers (Wife, Husband, and FurChild) who shared this lovely VW van for 12 days. Husband’s Review in English: This vintage late 90’s VW campervan simply takes you to another world. I felt like a college kid / boyscout again. The thoughtful touches that Nuno and Sofia put into this green machine add both Hyyge and Efficiency. I slept incredibly well after long days of exploring and hiking. I swiftly cooked amazing breakfasts with great coffee, made instant noodles, and reheated leftovers with the Van’s compact camping kitchen. And having a standard van makes it so easy to find affordable camping parcels or spots to park. We hit amazing beaches, trails, and attractions throughout Galicia and N Portugal with steady “Verdoka’s” help. I will cherish the memories made and am now tempted to buy my own van! Wife’s Review in Portuguese: Essa foi minha primeira experiencia de roadtrip e Nuno foi tao atencioso nos auxiliando sempre que foi necessário. Descubrimos nosso próprio modo viver a viagem depois de um tempo, mas ter alguém com experiencia nisso nos ajudou a pular algumas fases. Eles pensaram em absolutamente tudo relacionado ao que voce precisa num campervan e fez com que isso acontecesse de uma forma limpa e compacta - tudo tinha espaço certo, o que diminuiu bastante a sensação de poluição visual que pode existir nesse tipo de estilo de viagem. A van era confortável e dormimos bem dentro dela. Durante o dia facilmente podíamos converte-la de forma que ela abraçava as necessidades do dia, ajudando com a sensação de transição entre dia e noite. Dava pra ver que tudo nela foi vivenciado e pensado. Tivemos muita sorte de ter essa verdinha conosco. From Ludwig our FurChild: Woof woof olha minhas fotos!

We spent an incredible week along the Portugal coast. Teresa and Ricardo are very friendly and always willing to help. The van is really convenient and well design.

An absolute must try if you want a beautiful van with personality rented from an amazing couple! The van itself is definitely eye catching and was a great conversation starter with others. Despite being an old car we were surprised to experience that everything worked smoothly. The gears were slightly hard, but definitely manageable (i don't drive daily otherwise). The owners are the most kind and helpful people! Providing us with lots of practical stuff (stove, chairs, portable shower etc.) and even their tips/guides of beautiful spots. We would definitely recommend! Check out their Instagram to get the van's vibe: https://instagram.com/nivanpt?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

My partner and I spent nearly 3 weeks in Chiquita while we explored the coast of Portugal. The motorhome was very comfortable, safe and included everything we needed to make our holiday perfect. We didn't experience any problems that weren't easily resolved and communication was quick and easy when any questions or small concerns arose. We had an amazing time and are now missing her while we settle back into work in Australia.

We rented the camper for 6 days. The experience was great. The camper owner was very kind and helpful, he gave us a lot of advices and useful information for our trip. The camper had the best equipment for every situation. The camper was very clean in the inside and the outside. Massimo thanks. I am really recommending to rent that camper from massimo, trust me you'll have the best time. thanks again mr Cohen.

Joao and his wife were super friendly from the day one until the end of our trip. Always available for any question and at the end of our trip even took us to the airport as we were in a hurry. The motorhome is super comfortable for a family of four. We had great time traveling around Portugal and we will return back for sure.
