Got a Fly Drive US style camper in California some years ago.
Fabulous holiday of a lifetime.

A few warnings they are *big*, try driving something big in the UK before
you go.
We were experienced campers, which helped a lot.
Beware the mileage limitations, Canada is *big*.
Take the collision damage waver option you are driving on the wrong side of
the road. I went too near to some fences.
