I had an excellent experience renting a van from Daniel. From the very beginning, his communication was outstanding—he was always quick to respond, helpful, and made the entire rental process smooth and stress-free. The van was clean, well-maintained, and perfect for our family trip. What really made a huge difference were all the thoughtful extras that came with it. Having those added conveniences was a complete game changer and made our journey so much more comfortable and enjoyable. Daniel genuinely cares about his customers and goes the extra mile to provide a great experience. I would highly recommend his service to anyone looking for a reliable and hassle-free van rental. I will definitely be using his service again in the future. Thank you, Daniel, for making our trip so easy and memorable!
Excellent car rental experience from start to finish! The car was clean, comfortable, and in excellent condition. The pickup location was convenient and easy to find, which made the start of our trip very smooth. Our host Daniel was also responsive and very accommodating. Communication was clear and everything went exactly as expected. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely rent from this host again. I highly recommended this for those Filipinos who needs car rental in Calgary!
Rico is friendly and quick to respond to our questions! His high-roof van was comfortable and spacious, perfect for 8–9 people with plenty of room for all luggage. Everything went smoothly, and we had an amazing trip to the Canadian Rockies. Highly recommended!
Jose’s 2025 Ford Transit was absolutely perfect for our trip! The van was very clean, spacious, and extremely comfortable for our group, with all features and functions working perfectly. We had no issues whatsoever. Jose was prompt with all communication and very accommodating with our requests, making the entire experience smooth and hassle free. Thank you, Jose!

Everything about this trip was super easy and convenient. Great van and easy logistics. Thanks Darren!
Van is clean and runs smooth, host is very responsive and helful. we'll recommend for future trip
Daniel is an excellent communicator and made my first time booking through Turo such a breeze! Very comfortable for 9 ladies on a girls hiking trip and all of our luggage which I was worried about, but didn’t need to be. Plenty of space and easy to drive! Thanks again for being so easy going and letting us rent the bear spray too!
Great experience renting this van! The vehicle was clean, spacious, comfortable, and perfect for our family trip. It drove smoothly and had plenty of room for everyone and our luggage. Pickup and drop-off were easy, and Amit was responsive and helpful throughout the rental. Overall, everything went smoothly and I would definitely rent this van again. Highly recommended!
Excellent. The van drove beautifully and provided passengers with a comfortable ride. Very easy to pick up and drop off. Excellent service. Appreciated the good communication of the host.
The car was extremely clean and perfectly suited for our family of seven, including a 16-month-old baby. The trunk and interior space were spacious enough to comfortably fit all six of our suitcases and extra luggage. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend renting this vehicle if you’re taking a large family trip to Calgary and Banff!
Darren was a tremendous host. His response to us was immediate and very professional. The van was extremely clean and well maintained. We could not have asked for a better relationship. We definitely appreciate Darren and would highly recommend him and his services.
Owner: Highly recommend this listing. Daniel is a great guy! He accommodated for your variable schedule. During pickup he stepped out and explained the vehicle and helped us get going comfortably. He provided tips so that we could navigate his van comfortably. He even agreed to change the winter tire in advance as soon as he heard we would be heading over to icefields. Vehicle: This is a van and if you’re coming from a sedan or suv, you must adjust your driving accordingly, especially the corners. For a vehicle of this size, it accelerates fast on highways and handles well. The only downside is that if you don’t have passengers or enough load on it, it will swing on high or crosswinds. Also as a large van, you’ll be restricted to where you can take it; for example Banff downtown or parking lots in main attractions. It has android auto/carplay, blindspot monitor, blindspot mirrors to drive it safely. So if its your first time driving a van, you should be all good as long as you’re careful.
An amazing trip!! Car was super comfortable (especially during the cold nights) and Billy was very helpful with pickup and drop off.
Linda and Darren were amazing. “Bob” was a great vehicle and perfect for our family vacation.
Daniel and David are extremely friendly. It was a great pleasure to deal with them. Highly recommend their service to the others
