Planning the perfect family vacation takes time and effort. With the world still recovering from a major pandemic, the added stress of trying to plan something safe and fun is just not needed. That is where AVR comes in. We have spent the entire pandemic raising the bar on rental service and our quest won’t stop when the world returns to normal. Our exclusive hand-crafted journeys take your families fun, interests, and above all safety, into extreme consideration. We understand that even with vaccines rolling out, the last thing you want to do is end up in some bustling city for your summer vacation. Plus, all the time spent crammed indoors the last you want is another hotel in the middle of a city with no adventure. This isn't your average road trip, it’s an AVR journey.
