The host was great and extremely professional! I had a trip that was roughly 3000 miles and they worked with me on the miles. In addition, they supplied us with everything we needed for our trip! I would highly recommend them for anyone who is looking to book an rv trip. The rv ran better then most cars and handled the Rockies like a champ!
