I had heard about this company on social media and I admit that the idea of travelling electric appealed to me from an ecological point of view.
Right from the booking, our questions about the car seat (which was bought for the occasion, thanks again!) and other details were answered very quickly.
The campervan was very pleasant to drive and everything you need was available. Camping chairs and a tent + sleeping bag were even provided. Everything is ultra practical and good-looking on top of that. The double mattress is very comfortable and suited all 3 of us!
You get used to electric very easily. We had a bit of a scare in the Spanish Basque mountains with the battery running down quickly, but if you know that, honestly we did not feel slowed down at all by the electric side. It is great to drive and to say to yourself that you can enjoy nature while polluting it a little less.
So we highly recommend the experience, and with thefamilyvan in particular. Thanks again to the whole team for the organisation and the quality equipment you make available.

Surf camp
A friendly team, quick to respond and ready to listen. There was everything you need to travel for a few days. We'd taken an extra little blanket given the temperatures (February). We hadn't planned a precise itinerary and made it up as we went along with places that were recommended or found online. Would do it again!

Tailor-made trip
- Very well equipped vehicles,
- magnificent landscapes,
- a tailor-made itinerary put together by the family van meaning we didn't have to ask ourselves a single question during the trip: a list of places to sleep and places to visit depending on what we fancied...
In short, all you have to do is let go and enjoy.

Over time, The Family Van has developed its own approach to more sustainable van travel :)
We invite you to set off on an adventure in a 100% electric campervan anywhere in France and Europe.
When you hire one of our campervans, you’ll enjoy a premium service including comprehensive insurance, fully equipped campervans and support throughout your trip.
Whether it’s a surfing road trip in a campervan or a weekend away as a couple or with the family, our campervans offer exceptional comfort for road trips in south-west France.
Travelling in a campervan in France and the south-west means discovering our region’s cultural and natural heritage and enjoying a level of independence you won’t find anywhere else.
Go on a group trip with The Family Van
A surf camp or an itinerant Pilates retreat with The Family Van necessarily includes a group, Pilates or surfing lessons at various spots in the region, aperitifs at sunset every day, the discovery of vanlife and the southwest, as well as memories and encounters for life <3
We offer you this new formula to venture all along the Atlantic coast from Biscarrosse to Saint Jean de Luz, supplement San Sebastian, and then return home with only one question in mind: when do we leave??
