Barb
About
Barb sleeps comfortably 4 passengers so we would recommend her to families with kids on the first place. A large main bed for 2 with a proper mattress will fold in to give you more space inside if you need to cook, change your clothes etc. A second bed can be set up underneath the main bed and will comfortably accommodate another 2 travelers. The lower bed is foldable and removable (in case of 2 travelers only we’ll remove the bed, and it will provide you with lots of extra storage).
Two 80L water tanks (fresh and grey) provide enough water for cooking in fully equipped kitchen – large fridge, 2 burner stove top, pan, pot, plates, bowls, mugs, cutlery, French press etc. A large inside table sits comfortably 4 people and folds down to give you an extra space if needed.
Barb camper van will save your money for better places than the gas stations - the consumption is only 10L/100km (24 mpg)! The solar system allows you to charge your devices (USB and 110V outlets) anywhere you go. A roof window and a ceiling fan provide fresh air circulation during the summer nights and air-condition will keep you cool if driving on hot Okanagan highways. Barb is also fully isolated, and we installed a strong diesel heater so that will keep you warm in case of cold mountain nights.
Barb is 9ft tall and 19ft long - you will need this dimensions for your ferry reservations.
Camping chairs and a portable table to enjoy a campfire included for free (upon request).

We would strongly recommend L&P Camper Vans for anyone looking into a British Colombia trip. With Barb, our trusty camper van of choice, we traveled around British Columbia for six sunny weeks checking out amazing mountain bike trials and having a great time. For the majority of our holiday we stayed at campsites and found the camper van to have everything we needed, which for such a long holiday is saying something. We really appreciated how easy the vehicle was to drive, the comfortable bed, ample storage and a good-sized fridge.
You get a personalized and friendly service from Lucie and Pavel, who are fantastic – from the big things (providing a great bike rack, which for a mountain bike holiday was a massive help) to small things (showing us how to use all the features of the vehicle and keeping onto our bike bags to give us more storage room in the van).
We found that a camper van like Barb was at home in the mountain bike world, with other mountain bikers either having a similar set-up as Barb, or coming over for a friendly chat to check out our camper van.

FANTASTIC RV!! Rides smooth just like a Mercedes should. Definitely very well maintained vehicle. Inside is a beautiful hard-wood interior custom built and absolutely amazing. They thought of everything you could need! Does have the older smaller diesel engine so don't expect to be in the fast lane going up highway hills, but honestly when you drive this beauty you don't want to go fast. Highly recommend this RV for anyone looking for a small-medium sized RV that is very maneuverable, reliable, comfortable, and built to get you almost anywhere in BC. Enjoy!

Occasionally in life you get lucky and everything you plan falls perfectly into place. Organising our trip in Mr Cap was just one of those rare occasions.
First of all the booking process was super easy, the price was great and we were excited for our trip.
Picking up the van was incredibly easy and very well organised, with Pavel giving us a great introduction to everything.
Whilst we were in the van on our trip in the rockies the van was just perfect. Honestly you could not ask for any more. It’s a smooth, easy drive. There’s everything you need in the van and it looks awesome!
But what really makes the whole experience is that the people who run the business - Pavel and Lucie - are two incredibly nice people. Pavel took the time to drive us back to our hotel, then as if that wasn’t enough, waited for us and drove us where we needed to go in Vancouver. To top it off he gave us a free tour of the city. What a guy! Seriously though, Pavel is probably one of the coolest guys you’ll ever meet.
If you rent from L&P not only are you getting an amazing vehicle but you are supporting a family who are working hard to built a great business.
Thank you both for such an amazing trip. I wish you all the best in making L&P even better and more successful!
