Van is pretty clean and pick up and drop off is a breeze. The only down side is that it does not have a lot of cargo room for your stuff. Seats are a little uncomfortable AC takes a while to reach the very back. Other than that everything was great. It drives smooth and the backup camera is a big plus! You cannot beat the price. I would definitely rent again!
Kelvin was a great host! His Ford Transit was amazing four our family trip. We had 6 adults, 3 kids, and 2 pets and it fit us all comfortably. The vehicle was clean and in good condition. The AC worked wonderfully for the heat and the seats were very comfortable. The only hiccup we had was picking up the van because we were confused with the parking garage. This was our first time using Turo and picking up a rental at the airport. Otherwise, the van was perfect for our family vacation!
So easy to work with. This is my second time and will rent many more times. Van runs great and host is incredible.
Clean, comfortable, and well taken care of cargo van. Ashley was very friendly and gave clear instructions. Would definitely rent from again!
Great vehicle, had a great road trip with our fam. Host was friendly and service was excellent. Will definitely rent again.
We rented a van and had a great experience. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and in excellent condition. The rental process was smooth and easy, and the staff was very professional and helpful. Everything worked perfectly, and it was ideal for our family trip. I highly recommend their service and would definitely rent from them again.
It was a great van, clean great tires. Very smooth drive. Host very friendly. Thank you
Excellent!! Host communicated, van worked great! We had ten people and had plenty of room for all of our stuff!
5 stars! The host was incredibly flexible with the return. My plans shifted at the last minute and I needed to bring the car back a few hours later than originally scheduled—he didn’t even blink, just confirmed the new time and made it work perfectly. From start to finish, he made the whole process feel effortless. Clear instructions, quick replies, smooth pickup, and an equally painless drop-off. No stress, no complications, just easy. The car was clean and ready to go too. Would rent from him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!
Loved working with this company! Great van to haul a bunch of kids around with Thank you
Awesome van!!! If you're looking for comfort and cleansiness, this is the van you want. Thank you so much, Kim!!!
The Sprinter was perfect for our trip. Beautiful condition and ran smoothly. No issues whatsoever! Thank you Thomas! Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
Daniel was my first rental on Turo and he was easy to work with. From the rental process to pick-up and drop-off, the entire process was seamless. His 10-passenger van was affordable for our short-family vacation in San Diego and an amazing vehicle to have that enhanced our memories filled with laughter and joy having everyone together during our road travels from San Diego to Orange County through to Los Angeles. While the Van provided a television for entertainment, it was not needed for us but I am certain that it will benefit others. A great feature to the Van!! The only trouble we had, at first, was locating the gas tank. It took us a while to locate it, but after the while we decided to look it up on YouTube and we found it. It is located at the Driver side, unnoticeable because the cover blends in with the door and Van’s side panel. Haha. Rent this Van from Daniel. I promise you that you will not regret it!! Thank you, Daniel, for allowing our family to be together in your Van and at an affordable rate!!!
Clean vehicle, responsive host, and amazing memories on a trip. What more do you need than that? Thanks Khoa!
Kim’s ride was clean, excellent condition and worked properly. She was organized and good communicator. My family plans to rent from Kim again. Thanks!
This car is super reliable, and can haul your family on a weekend getaway easy with such comfort and space. Drives great.
Great size vehicle for a larger party! Would definitely book again if we needed a larger vehicle. A million times better and more spacious than a minivan!
Dude was available for pick up and extremely friendly and informative. Made me feel comfortable and gave me a clear understanding of the vehicle and operations. Would definitely use this csr again.

Frequently asked questions in Laguna Niguel
What van features matter most for Laguna Niguel family trips?
Spacious seating for up to eight passengers ensures everyone travels comfortably during your Laguna Niguel adventures, whether heading to nearby Laguna Beach or exploring Santa Ana attractions. Climate control becomes essential for California's warm weather, while ample cargo space accommodates beach gear, luggage, and shopping from Newport Beach excursions. Safety features like backup cameras and blind spot monitoring prove invaluable when navigating busy areas around Anaheim or San Diego.
How do you handle van driving in California traffic?
Maintain extra following distance since vans require more stopping space than regular vehicles, especially during rush hours between Laguna Niguel and Irvine. Use your mirrors frequently and signal early when changing lanes, as California drivers move quickly around larger vehicles near busy areas like Long Beach Municipal Airport. Plan your routes during off-peak hours when possible, particularly for trips to San Diego Airport or Ontario Airport where traffic congestion peaks during morning and evening commutes.
Where can you easily park a van in Laguna Niguel?
Most shopping centers and restaurants in Laguna Niguel offer spacious parking lots designed to accommodate larger vehicles, making van parking straightforward for family outings. Beach parking near Laguna Beach requires arriving early during peak season, as van-friendly spots fill quickly at popular coastal destinations. Public parking structures in nearby Irvine and Newport Beach typically provide adequate clearance and wider spaces suitable for rental vans.
Which van size works best for group adventures?
Eight-passenger vans provide the ideal balance of space and maneuverability for exploring attractions from Juan Capistrano to Anaheim with extended family or friend groups. Twelve-passenger vans suit larger gatherings but require more careful navigation through tighter spaces in historic areas like downtown Laguna Niguel. Consider your typical group size and luggage needs when selecting between standard and extended van rentals for California adventures.
How do you stay comfortable during long van journeys?
Adjust seats and mirrors before departing Laguna Niguel to ensure optimal comfort for extended drives to destinations like San Diego or beyond. Pack snacks and entertainment for passengers, especially when traveling with children on longer routes through California's scenic coastal areas. Take regular breaks every two hours at rest stops or attractions along your route, allowing everyone to stretch and refresh during your van rental adventure.
What safety features should you check in your rental van?
Verify that all seatbelts function properly and familiarize yourself with the van's blind spot monitoring system before leaving Laguna Niguel for your California road trip. Test the backup camera and parking sensors, as these features prove essential when maneuvering in crowded areas around Newport Beach or Santa Ana. Check tire pressure and ensure the spare tire kit is accessible, particularly important for longer journeys to airports like San Diego Airport or Ontario Airport.
