Chariot was created to chase a wild dream of mine back in 2019 and she has brought me to the wildest dreams I could ever imagine after living full time in it for one year. Chariot is a Ford Transit XTL 250 High Roof cargo van (good for tall human to stand in but not driving :). Then piece by piece, wire by wire, my carpenter friend and I designed and built the basic structure. She went across the country 3 times after the built and have become something bigger than I expected. Over the years, my partner, Derek, and I slowly refine and upgrade everything to which of what you see now. That being said, we're still refining and upgrading her. She may not be the most perfectly designed camper van (yet), and she sure has all the charms which require you to take good care of while on the road! But I promise, she's not high maintenance and would certainly make your journey a lot easier if you pay attention to her details :-)Chariot has taken us to 15+ national parks across the country along with our little black cat, miss mishi. Chariot has all the things you'd need to call it home. So all you need is your free spirited mind and suitcase! I can't wait to see what she will take you on for a magical journey of your own!Ce qui est inclus• One burner induction cooktop
• Polaroid instant camera with film
• Yoga mat
• Foldable picnic blanket
• Biodegradable soap for handwashing and showering - Dr. Bronner's
• Portable bluetooth speaker
• Stepping stool for easy in/out of the van
• Two extra 5 gallon water jugs for your off-roading trip
RecommandationsCalifornia is beautiful everywhere you go. Let's chat so I can recommend what interests you the most (the towering Redwoods, Giant Sequoias, rugged coastline, sea urchin hunting, fishing, bird/animal watching, etc...)Autres points à signalerOur normal pick-up time is 2pm, drop-off time is 11am. I won’t charge early pickup fee or extra late fees AS LONG AS we work it out before your trip, and you can be punctual and communicative if you run late.

5Charlotte was very nice host who really took time to explain everything about the van we were renting. We did a 4-day trip South from SF with her van and it worked perfectly for our trip!

5Charlotte and Chariot were both so sweet! Super user-friendly van with everything you need to feel safe, comfortable, and ready to immerse in whatever adventure you’re on. Everything a traveler may need while calling Chariot their base has been intuited and is a part of the design. Love that attention to detail. This van feels like home quick and has such a warm and inviting energy. I will definitely be renting again! Thanks Charlotte! Xo

5This is a fabulous vehicle that has been very well thought out. It has everything you need to make your next outdoor adventure fantastic. The interior is beautiful with all custom wood, plenty of storage, a sink and refridgerator (no more soggy cooler food)! The bed is comfy - i would recommend bringing a mattress topper or comforter to put over the cushions. Charlotte the owner was great and communication was excellent. We did self deop off which was a breeze with excellent instructions. If I could give 6 stars I would. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

5We had the best time! Not only was the van exactly what we expected, it was exactly what we needed. It was super comfortable to sleep in and we had everything we needed for our trip. Charlotte (owner) was amazing and went through everything for us when we picked it up and even sent YouTube videos in the case we needed help and didn’t have service. We definitely will be returning next year to do this trip again. Thanks for everything Charlotte, we love The Chariot 💕

Frequently asked questions
Q.
What if I drive through a toll?
R.
Your toll(s) will be collected after the trip and the payment will be deducted from the $500 deposit within 7 days.
Q.
Are there any special tricks and tips that would help with operating the RV easily?
R.
Please make it a habit to always check and ensure all drawers are locked and all lose items are put away before hitting the road! It will help prevent damages and would ultimately make your trip much more enjoyable!
Q.
What flexibility is available for picking up and dropping off the RV?
R.
We're usually very flexible since I work from home. So I'll try to be as accommodated as possible unless we're happened to be away.
Q.
Can I bring along my pet(s)?
R.
Yes! We're pet-friendly. But please disclose that you're bringing your pet(s) along and purchase the pet fee. Failure to do so will result in $250 penalty if we deem that there's trace of pet(s) being in the van when cleaning.
