"Highly recommend Escape Camper Vans! I’ve rented vans from both the Seattle and Vancouver locations. The staff is as helpful and friendly as they come, and the vans are clean and fully outfitted for a perfect vacation. I prefer a camper van over a boxy RV as you can fit into almost any campsite, it uses less gas, and you don’t have to plug in or stay at noisy RV camps. This has become my favorite way to vacation. Happy camping!" - Anna Penn

Why Choose Escape

 

1. Drive anywhere!

People love campervans because of the freedom they offer to get off the beaten path where RVs can’t go. Parking is a breeze, city driving isn’t stressful, and winding mountain roads are no problem!

2. Affordable and transparent pricing

Save up to $1600 by choosing to rent an Escape Campervan vs. an RV. Our rates are competitive with other RV companies, campervan companies, and even hostels & hotels. We have flexible add-on options so you can customize your trip to fit your needs, comfort level, and budget.

3. Artwork

Why have your home on wheels be an advertisement when it can be beautiful artwork? 600+ of our vans are unique, colorful, and hand-painted by talented local artists in LA. Our designs are family-friendly and eye-catching (in a good way)–you’re sure to make some friends on the road!

4. Fuel efficiency

Spend half as much on gas in a campervan compared to an RV. Our fleet is among the most fuel-efficient in the US. Compared to gas-guzzling RVs, this is going to save you the big bucks in the long run.

5. Space-efficient vehicles

Our spacious campervan interior, large bed, and extra storage space make for a more comfortable experience without sacrificing drivability.

"100% recommend Escape Camper Vans. We were originally planning to rent an RV for the 4 of us but the astronomical prices proved too much and I'm SO glad we found this alternative. Everything was so straightforward, incredible customer service, great price, the van was a dream with everything we needed and so much easier to drive than an RV! We had plenty of space with 4 of us in the Maverick! We were so sad to give it back after 9 nights, I'm already starting to plan another trip and can't wait to use Escape again." - Keira Smalley
