Notes From Happy Campers

This was the most professional travel experience I have ever had. Nomadic Rigs are OUTSTANDING hosts. I arrived to the truck and they gave me a complete and thorough tour of every detail of the unit. They are super keen on safety and efficiency, so wanted to make sure I had every bit of info I needed for a great trip.

The truck was INCREDIBLE to drive. clean, modern and FULLY stocked with everything one might need on a camping trip. I am usually used to having to buy little things like rope, toilet paper, etc - but this ride had EVERYTHING i needed so i could just enjoy my time on the road. The bed was SO comfortable and sleeping in the scout was super relaxing. This was the most fun i've ever had on a vacation - because this rental was TOP NOTCH, loaded and ready for adventure. Thank you Nomadic Rigs for a five star experience.

Ali E - Toronto

Nomadic Rigs was extremely detailed in showing us how to best drive their truck, and how to operate the camper. This was appreciated once we were on our own and had to do things ourselves. They have outfitted it so we had everything we needed and more. The Yoho is a wonderful size for people looking to be somewhat practical. I appreciated being able to navigate forest service roads without issue other than just taking it slowly. The diesel heater quickly got temps up to speed at which point, we turned it off. All in all, 100% recommendation from us. Thanks!

Jon W - West Vancouver

The Nomadic Rigs team was responsive and informative.

The camper set up included everything you would need and more.

We were able to get off the beaten track, have some shelter on rainy days and thoroughly enjoyed the journey.

Would recommend.

Gillian D - Australia

Amazing rig and very knowledgeable host, would recommend for anyone looking to get off the beaten path.

The camper has everything you need and more, the truck is in top shape and the team at Nomadic Rigs could not have been more accommodating.

The Scout is a very well-designed camper; it's tight quarters, but comfortable.

Thanks for the great trip!
