Sure, maybe it's blasphemy to say that any new Volkswagen California camper van is better than the icons that came before it. But Volkswagen has worked quite hard to optimize the freshly launched California eHybrid 4Motion for smart, affordable, carefree road trips. Not only does the new camper bus pack standard all-wheel drive to master the slick conditions inevitable in van life, it boasts a virtually silent, zero-emissions electric range over 80 km (50 miles) per charge. And given it adds only a 6.5% premium over the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel California, why wouldn't a buyer go for the 4Motion PHEV?

We can't thank you enough for the amazing week we've had. The Jungle Dome looked great on the website, but it is only when you arrive that you realize what a special place it is. It's rare to find a place in such a beautiful setting with so many places to see and activities to do in such a close distance.

We enjoyed every second; from the horseback ride through the jungle, boat ride down the river, the Black Hole Drop, cave tubing, etc. Also, we are so glad that we spotted a comment in the comment book about David's night time jungle walk- it was brilliant. The overnight stay in the cave was loads of fun too.

Most of all, thank you to Andy, Simone, David, Mynor & the rest of the staff here for making us feel so welcome, comfortable & part of the Jungle Dome family during our stay. Every aspect was amazing and - like I said at the start- we can't thank you enough. You have a special place & we will spread the word in England for you.

 It is sad to leave, but nice to go knowing that we have made so many new friends!

Thanks again, Lee & Natalie, UK


May 21, 2012 Dear Jungle Dome,

Wow! What an amazing week! Jungle Dome far exceeded all of our expectations and the bar high for the rest of our trip. The staff here are amazing and truly made the experience for us. It felt like we were among friends, not resort staff, all week.

The food was incredible, the lodge is beautiful, and the experiences in the jungle were life changing and unforgettable! We will definitely be recommending this place with raving reviews to our friends and family, and hope to make it back here in the future!

Jen & Colin, Vancouver, Canada

We are happy to receive a Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence award for 2012.
