I do not know where to start but Charlie was everything we wanted and more. Charlie was exceptional in every way and has created memories that we will cherish forever. Our dealing with Dan and Holly was super easy and are both two amazing people!

We LOVED Charlie The Cruiser!
He cruised through all our adventures with grace and ease. We loved the solar power, kitchen including water filter and especially the Bushmans upright fridge!
The rooftop tent was comfy - it great to be off the ground and watch beautiful sunrises and the moon and starry sky from bed. It was super easy to set up and pack up.
Dan was great to communicate with and made everything easy.
Well miss Charlie!

We loved discovering WA with Charlie the Cruiser. Dan and Holly did a great job preparing Charlie as your faithful travel companion. Particularly the fit out of the roof tent and the kitchen is perfect! The solar panel and the large water tank are extremely reliable off grid. Communication with Dan was easy and always helpful. We thoroughly recommend Charlie the Cruiser!

What People are often Asking
Can I Take Charlie Off road?
We know there are lots of awesome places to discover in our beautiful state but we ask that you stick to the designated road-worthy bitumen. BORING! we hear you. Because Charlie The Cruiser is designed for off-road use we do allow him to be used on unsealed roads. However, this needs to all be pre-approved with us and Camplify otherwise all insurances are void which could mean some unwanted nasty surprises for you.
Please Note: insurance & roadside assistance will be void in this instance
Do You Have A Minimum Hire?
We all know that when we take a holiday the first 2 days are a settling in, a switching off, right! Only then do we really start to relax & enjoy our adventure. With that & you in mind we have a 5 day minimum hire on Charlie to allow you the best opportunity to really experience all that Off Grid Living has to offer.
Is The Rooftop Tent Suitable For Kids?
The rootop tent is certainly a fun .
We would recommend a 10yrs + for this magical experience . (there is plenty of space to move around but we need to have our sensible hats on at all times). The tent itself is fully contained.
Do You Provide Linen/Towels etc?
Yes, Everything Will Be Clean & Ready For You To Head Off At Pick Up.
All Beds Will Be Made Up & Beach Towels In The Garage Box.
Do I Need A Special Licence To Take Charlie On A Adventure?
We wanted to make Charlie accessible to everyone so you can absolutely take him on an adventure with a standard driving license. We recommend making time to take Charlie for a couple of laps around the block before you head out. Our Minimum Age for Hire is 25 Years Old.
