Very nice experience that allowed us to discover northern Spain in a van.
The experience was great from start to finish! The van was super well equipped, comfortable and easy to handle, even for the first time.The team was super responsive and friendly, everything was clear and well organized.A big thank you again for this great opportunity — I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a getaway for a minimalist life! Starting out in the electric business, you have to distinguish between the different charging station providers, some have a membership card, others like Tesla, work with a credit card. The fastest are the Teslas.
First experience in a van in the Landes and the Basque Country incredible, with an organization of The Family Van team at the top. The team provides us with a roadbook that allows us to organize our stay, give us ideas on activities and places to visit along our entire itinerary. There are also recipes that are adapted to the van. The van is super comfortable and contains everything you need to cook, eat outside, surf (chairs, table, drying rack, boards, wetsuits, poncho,...). Also driving and charging electric cars are super easy. The itinerary was adapted for each charge.
Our days were punctuated by a surf lesson in the morning adapted to our level. Then walks, visits to the various spots or get back in the van to continue our itinerary while enjoying the beautiful landscapes. A big thank you to the team, we can't wait to come back for the next group trip!!
Very good experience with Family Van. It is a smiling, available, attentive team that offers a real decompression haven thanks to its combined formula of “trip in an electric van”, and “surfing”. The team is pro. The stay needs to be refined to avoid the excess of kilometers and leave more time to stroll and enjoy (the Lège Cap-Ferret area to the Basque Country is preferred) to make the nomadic side and the time to enjoy (in a group or alone) equitable. Another improvement expected to make this stay a best seller: more support and advice during surfing lessons for learning and better define the hours of surfing to avoid delays due to inertia (from a group that would not go at the same speed and who learns the starting place and time too late).
We decided to make the electric van our first experience in a van, because we had a very good contact with Kevin from Van Family at a trade show, a new but very dynamic company.
Overall, you were very satisfied with their services (creation of a super book for the trip; assistance throughout the stay...). The only negative downside is related to the network of electrical terminals, access to which is different depending on the distributor, especially difficult in Spain... which puts stress on the trip.
It was an incredible experience! The vans are well thought out in terms of storage, the bedding is of good quality with a comforter that keeps you warm! We had meals included in the van and it was nice not to have to go shopping all the time because we forgot something there with the roadbook: several recipes were dedicated to us with all the ingredients in the van! Then, speaking of the Electric Van, I enjoyed driving it. But it's smooth to drive and you get used to it very quickly and the size of the van is not too tall or too big!
In terms of electricity, it charges quickly depending on the terminals of course but one night at the campsite was enough for us! Then there is an app to allow you to find an electrical terminal in the area, which allows you to help when you want to travel a bit and plan along the way!
Then the Van family, to a concierge if we had a problem during the day, which made it possible to reach them at any time easily and quickly.
The concept of a surf trip in an electric van is an incredible idea, it felt like being in a summer camp for adults! Then the surfing lessons with Antoine were very pleasant, he listens and explains to us to help us evolve, he adapts to all levels. Having him with us allowed us to have an opinion on a city to visit, hikes or activities to do! In the end, we were so sad to leave each other, it's a pretty crazy experience in one week!
Thank you so much again for this experience 🌞
It was a great experience, a human, sporting and super rewarding adventure. The idea of mixing road-trip in a campervan, with an electric vehicle, all in a group makes the trip very interesting in all aspects. In terms of surfing lessons, Antoine is simply at the top! Both cool and educational, he plays an important role in this trip by not only limiting himself to his activity as an instructor, he is a guide present from the beginning to the end of the stay. It was a real summer camp between adults, I could not have asked for better!!
A magnificent experience!! The organization of The Family Van was top notch, arrived at Dax station we picked up the van and our surfing gear, a few explanations for the autonomy and the charging of the vehicle, then the adventure begins! A great trip for a surf trip with recommendations for walking around and discovering our magnificent regions in France. The Family Van is planning a very copious lunch basket that lasted us all week!
Then in this type of trip there are great encounters, Antoine who was our surf teacher, accompanied us all week through the different regions to find the best spots and during the sessions they give great advice for both beginners and intermediates!
During the week, a group is also formed, with a warm and energetic atmosphere!
So many beautiful memories, thank you The Family Van for this experience, we will be back:)
Excellent welcome and organization. Very friendly team.
Excellent welcome as part of an organized camp. The vans are very well laid out and easy to use. Noémie and Kevin are extremely welcoming, caring and trustworthy. The whole rental and the camp were perfectly organized. I highly recommend and will probably go back to enjoy the Moors and the Basque Country thanks to The Family Van.

Very good first experience in an Electric Van. Autonomy and recharging are not really a hindrance. On vacation it allows you to take your time and visit when recharging.
The van is very well appointed and perfectly equipped down to the smallest details (seasonings, dishwashing liquid, tea towel,...).
The team is very friendly and attentive.
We highly recommend The Family Van, and we will repeat the experience soon.
Great experience, I recommend to anyone who loves adventure, nature and flexibility:) the Family Van team is very caring and the vans are nickel-good! 10/10
The Van is very well equipped with all the necessary comforts. The campsites selected are top notch. Very good experience
An unforgettable first experience in an electric van with The Family Van 🚐
We had a great vacation cruising the Basque coast aboard the Malibu campervan! A big thank you to the team who was helpful and responsive. We will be back for new adventures with great pleasure:)
Great surf trip! Discover the region, surf the beautiful waves of the southwest, enjoy convivial moments and enjoy driving these soothing and comfortable electric vans. Great memories shared with our travel companions as well as our top guides, Kevin and Noémie. I highly recommend this vacation, it was a joy!
Thanks to the team who are always very helpful if we have a question during the trip.
The vehicle is incredibly comfortable in terms of driving! And it's well laid out. Everything is planned in the van.
All utensils, salt, coffee, comforter, pillows everything! You just have to come with your stuff!
For the more cautious, if you go in winter, bring a sleeping bag and warm clothing in addition.
Big plus for us, it's animal friendly, so you can travel with your 4-legged friend!
So we were able to travel with our cat, who didn't want to leave the van!
Very well equipped van where everything is there and has been well thought out, very pleasant to drive thanks to its small footprint, you can park everywhere. It is easy to recharge it either at the fast terminals or simply at night on a simple plug in the campsites while you sleep! Noémie and the team are very responsive and friendly, they are there to answer questions at any time. It was our first experience and I was a bit worried but in the end it was very simple! I recommend 😃
I rented an electric van to discover the moors with my dog (The Family Van is “Pets Friendly”). My biggest fear was struggling to charge the van. But in fact, there are many stations installed and in addition, easy to locate, with the ChargeMap application. I really enjoyed traveling in silence:) And parking in the only parking space that was left... reserved for electric cars, to plug in. Then, the Landes department, and great! Loved it! The team is very attentive, they help, throughout our trip, if we have a technical question! Very reassuring!
Thanks to Noémie and Kevin for this VERY friendly welcome as well as the very clear and fun explanations/demonstrations! Being already a fan of “vanlife” myself, I wanted to share this experience with my best friend and especially to make her discover this way of life. WE LOVED IT!! This van is extremely well thought out and equipped, the space is very optimized, we were able to store absolutely all our things (we are 2 girls I specify = a lot of stuff). Top experience, and especially in electricity! It changes life (and the planet)! Thank you The Family Van for these wonderful moments. 🚐😎
We spent 10 days in a van! And it was a great experience! The van is perfect, it has everything you need, electric is a real pleasure! The Thé Family Van team is attentive and very well organized. We recommend 100%, not to mention the discovery of the Basque Country, a pure wonder!
Our van road trip was great. The van itself is very well thought out, we have space, it is airy and not too busy. Easy to use and really pleasant.
We identified a few points that could be improved, such as the cover, which was a bit small for two, I think that individualizing it can be nice and adding a fixed mirror as well. The electrical side is great in the sense that the level of impact on the environment and the silence is really important for us, we had trouble recharging the van because many terminals in Biarritz did not work, which caused a little stress but I think it's a habit and a habit to get into.
In any case the size of the van allowed us to go everywhere without problems and the layout is really nice.
Thank you again for this beautiful stay which did us the greatest good
We had a GREAT vacation thanks to the Family Van.
The team is professional, friendly and above all available.
I can only recommend.
I recommend 100%
I recommend 1000%: the van was perfect, the check-in/out went without a problem, the team was always available by message or call to answer our questions and we were even able to bring our dog!
Special mention for the team who knew how to help us with kindness and flexibility during a setback before picking up the van:)
Great stay
The guides were at our disposal throughout the trip. We were able to discover these beautiful regions, as well as to surf regularly depending on the conditions. The surf schools chosen met our expectations, too bad that some days did not allow us to enjoy them because of the weather conditions... I recommend this stay! 🏄 ♂️
Very good experience with an electric van from Thé Family Van. Good comfort, good autonomy and a team that listens.

It was a real summer camp between adults, I could not have asked for better!!
The welcome was nice, the van in great condition and finally the electric experience quite cool. The initial stress is gradually disappearing. You just need to know that it's not made for long stays and long mileages. To be done again...
Outstanding
A big thank you to the whole team! It was our first experience in a van and we fully adhered. A team that listens with a roadbook that is very adapted to our requests, small addresses that we would never have found without Lisa's good tips and a super well-equipped van...
And a big thank you to Kévin and Noémie for the great gift at the end of the stay following a small setback (you didn't have to but we really appreciated it!!)
We recommend The Family Van with our eyes closed.
Nathalie and Roland
A nice escape in a van
A great escape with very well equipped vans, the multiple landscapes of New Aquitaine, no difficulty in finding a welcoming campsite, charging stations.
Congratulations to the Familly V an team who knows how to support us before and during your stay.
Great experience we loved testing the electric adventure it was so pleasant!! The vans are very well arranged and it is pleasant to ride with.The team is adorable and available, we highly recommend it:)
1st experience in a van and an electric vehicle: it was great! The van was very well equipped and the team is very attentive to answer all your questions
We had a great weekend around Lake Lacanau. The van is very well equipped and easy to drive. We appreciated the electrical aspect all the more and had no charging problems. It was also great to be able to take our dog with us. The Family Van team is top notch. We will leave in an electric van as soon as possible!
I had a great experience with the “Family Van”. The battery life is also quite sufficient. The rental is very well located and Kevin is very accommodating. I will gladly come back (and sorry for my French)!
Incredible
Incredible, despite the changeable weather, a first experience in a van that went perfectly thanks to The Family Van. Thanks!
We went as a couple for a week exploring the French and Spanish Basque coast, as well as the Pyrenees. We came back full of stars in our eyes:
- Very well equipped vehicles,
- magnificent landscapes,
- a tailor-made itinerary by the family van allowing us to ask ourselves no questions during the trip: list of places to sleep and places to visit according to our desires...
In short, all you have to do is let yourself go and enjoy.
First time in an incredible van! The van is very well equipped and has a good autonomy. There were two of us and we were able to put all our stuff in. The electric makes the van very fun to drive. The Family Van team is great. We were very well received! It was great!
We rented the van for our 9-day trip through the beautiful Basque Country and were absolutely thrilled! The layout is well thought-out and of high quality, and thanks to electric mobility, driving is not only quiet and pleasant, but also environmentally friendly. At the same time, we were completely autonomous during our trip.
We would like to highlight the quality of the team's service: very friendly, helpful and reachable at any time during the trip. We would definitely book again!
This is the second time I have rented from The Family Van and there is no doubt that there will be a third and more! Top customer service and comfortable van, nothing to complain about
Great experience with The Family Van. Pick up the van close to Dax station, no surprise price once there and a very pleasant welcome. Kévin and Noémie took the time to explain to us the different functions of the van and were available throughout the trip. The van is very pleasant to drive and very comfortable to create beautiful memories across the Basque Country. I highly recommend it!
The van is very comfortable, the team super responsive if necessary, it was a great first vanlife experience 😎 We were three, so we chose the mattress option on the front seats for the 3rd bed and it was very good. When it comes to driving, it's child's play and to recharge the van too! In short, there is no reason not to be tempted:)
Great experience to test this mode of travel in slow travel mode. New vehicle with a simple and practical layout. Team with great care and attentive to the smallest details. Thanks to the whole team.
Vann well equipped and the battery has a good battery life. We were well accompanied by WhatsApp and the Landes region is well equipped for electric roadtrips. At the top and to do it again with the same family
Fantastic surf road trip
Thank you so much Noémie and Kevin for this unforgettable week!
Super well-equipped vans, a well-established course, great tips all the way and a real discovery of the region and Vanlife. I will 100% recommend those around me! It's refreshed and with stars in my eyes that I'm back after this great week:)
Top 3 of my best vac
Well organized stay, top activities and visits. The van is well equipped. Leaving with strangers is a fire Nothing to complain about except that Kévin and Noémie are extra!!!! Thanks for the disconnect.
Everything was perfect!
A great week's stay with The Family Van, we loved it and plan to repeat the experience again! The van is very well appointed, comfortable, we found everything we needed, and nice touches as well. The team is very friendly and available. Travelling in a 100% electric van allowed us to make a nice short trip in the Spanish Basque Country without any problem to recharge. I recommend!!
“Superb first experience in an electric vehicle with The Family Van! The van is very comfortable, very well thought out, furnished and equipped. Easy to drive, it quickly provides a feeling of freedom. All the information and advice shared by Kevin and Noémie allow you to leave with a light mind. Simple and practical charging ensures peaceful driving... and silent!
On the beach, in the mountains, in the forest or on a campsite, we spent quality moments and comfortable nights thanks to this van, which also fits everywhere.
A big thank you to The Family Van for your quality services, your availability and your passion that you transmit with such kindness! And above all, see you very soon for new adventures!”
A superb getaway in a campervan!
We recently opted for a van rental from Dax to visit the region, and our experience was just great.
Here's why we're giving it five stars:
Ease of recovery: Pickup of the van at the exit of the station was quick and simple, making it easy to start our trip.
Impeccable layout: The van was perfectly equipped, meeting all our needs for a comfortable stay. Even as newbies to this type of trip, we did not miss anything.
Pleasant driving: Driving the van was smooth and pleasant, which greatly contributed to our enjoyment of discovering the area.
Useful guide: We also opted for the additional guide, which proved to be a nice resource for discovering spots to see/restaurant/campgrounds in the region without getting too busy.
And as a possible area for improvement, we simply suggest providing new campers with additional information on campsite closing times, in order to facilitate their travel experience.
In summary, our van getaway was a memorable experience, and we would highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a worry-free adventure in this beautiful region. Thank you for an unforgettable experience! 🚐🌟
Rarely have we had to deal with such a great team. Beyond the incredible experience that renting this superb electric van gave us, The Family Van Team accompanies and takes care of its customers. A big thank you to Kévin, Mathieu and Noémie for their smile, their authenticity and their humanity. We will certainly repeat this just magical experience that has the power to put things into perspective.
The family van team was great
The family van team was great and really thought of everything to please their customers. The van is very well equipped and really easy to drive. The destinations were well chosen, the surf lessons good, especially in Capbreton. Two small drawbacks for me: the first was sharing the van with a stranger and having only slept in the tent located above (I knew in advance that it was shared but did not fully understand the tent system and thought that we could have exchanged roles so I am partly responsible for it), the second the poor condition of the equipment from the last surfing lesson, the information should be reported and processed because the Family team is very reactive! Experience to repeat to know real life only in Van:) I recommend!
Noémie from Family Van prepared a road trip for us in the Basque Country, combining mountains and sea, from France to Spain.
She was able to fully understand our expectations and needs: we are traveling with our two-year-old child and everything has been adapted for her, from the pace to the activities.
It is a team of enthusiasts who manage to transmit its values through their work. Attentive and responsive, we will be happy to leave with them.
I wish them a great evolution 🚀.
Before, during and after the stay, the team is at the top, and what can we say about the concept! Just incredible to arrive at a spot surrounded by nature with the softness of electricity! I recommend to anyone who wants a simple and quiet trip
An unusual and unforgettable experience!
Atypical and unforgettable experience!! What a pleasure to travel slowly without being stressed about where you are going to sleep at night
3 great days spent thanks to the family van, rediscovering the Basque country under a beautiful sun. Whether before, during the rental and even when returning the van, the welcome and availability of the team was more than great. Electric driving is easy, the layout of the van is practical and pleasant, in short I can only recommend!!
A great relaxing stay thanks to the silence of the electric! The use of the electric vehicle is very easy, including charging at the terminals that can be found easily everywhere thanks to applications or the phone's GPS. In addition, we were won over by the enthusiastic and adorable welcome from the team, on the way there and back. We wish this small family business a great and long journey!!
Easy booking thanks to the highly responsive team. Sustained and caring communication. The videos presenting how to use the van are clear, simple and complete while remaining short. The electric van is easy to handle and how pleasant it is to drive without vibration! The vans were in perfect condition. Charging stations are becoming more and more numerous and so economical. In short, we loved it and we can do it again without hesitation. Thank you 'The Family Van' thanks to you we had a great vacation.
An extraordinary van life experience!
The pleasure of changing spots every day. A top teacher who knows empty spots that are perfect for our levels.
Super quality sleeping spots, allowing you to go surfing on foot.
Top support with the super helpful Family Van team.
The best way to (re) discover the southwest!
Go for it!!
This electric van was exactly what we needed, beware of the limited autonomy but congratulations for the comfort and the equipment.
An unforgettable experience
An unforgettable experience, a real road trip among the sublime landscapes of South West France in an electric van and the best introduction to surfing possible (I had never surfed before the stay and was able to progress very quickly thanks to the free surfing lessons and sessions).
The vans were very comfortable and pleasant, just like each of the campsites. We left as a couple and felt really at home.
All the surf spots, surf lessons, restaurants, bars and activities (especially great skateboarding lessons), picnic spots on the shores of lakes and forests had been selected with great care by Kevin and Noémie, who accompanied us with their incredible energy and enthusiasm to help us discover the best places with them at each stage of the trip:)
Go there with your eyes closed, we already dream of going back.
Going on an adventure with The Family Van is trying an extraordinary experience. A pre-scheduled road trip with a roadbook and surfing lessons every morning. An experience full of promises, a team of 8 people who do not know each other, for a stay rich in landscapes and encounters. A special mention to Antoine, a top surfing teacher with good advice on the stages of the Road. Not to mention the team available at any time in case of need through the concierge. I would highly recommend this experience!
The trip, the surf teacher, the campervan, the meetings, the stops, the restaurants... everything was great! It was the first time that my partner and I traveled in a van, and we will do it again with our eyes closed. Driving an electric car is a huge plus! It makes the trip and the immersion in the landscapes more fluid and natural.
Although I was not lucky in terms of weather during my week aboard The Family Van's e-jumpy, I loved my experience! The electric van is so fun to drive and the layout is practical, well-designed and cozy. Perfect for a few days wandering around in the Landes or elsewhere! Travelling in an electric van is a necessary adjustment, made so enjoyable by the great team at The Family Van!
I don't have the words to describe how amazing this week has been!!
The discovery of the region, the quality of the program, the super comfortable layout of the van, the surf lessons, the special moments with the group, the feeling of being cut off from the world and experiencing something exceptional... in short thank you thank you The Family Van!! GO FOR IT GO FOR IT
Great road trip in a van!
Vans are great, comfortable, and easy to drive.
Antoine, our guide, also contributed to the success of this trip! Thank you for being patient, listening and sharing your tips on the coast;)
Finally, The Family Van team is attentive before and during the trip, and very kind! Thank you for your professionalism.
We are ready to try the experience again with you quickly!
First experience in a Van
We took a short tour of Landes and the Basque Country in an electric van from The Family Van this summer. The team that looked after us is great, helpful, welcoming, available throughout our stay if we had any questions or need help, you can trust them with your eyes closed.
The vans are new, well maintained, functional, everything is there for a good stay.
For our first time in a van, we highly recommend The Family Van;)
Just a great experience! On board the van I was able to experience great freedom, with magnificent natural landscapes and then surfing lessons in the same spirit! It was a great human adventure that will remain engraved in my heart! A truly magical return to basics! I am delighted and I recommend it with my eyes closed! 👌🏻🏄🏻♀️🌊🌿🚐🙏🏻🌈🙌🏻
Very pleasant weekend in a van
Little gift for the birthday of my top companion! Fully equipped van, very simple and smooth to drive and comfortable. No worries to pick it up since the offices are close to the station. Thank you again for your responsiveness!
The stay was just great in every way!
It was a first for me in electric vans. It is perfectly adapted to the proposed travel format, all itineraries are calculated in advance for our comfort. We don't have to worry about autonomy or other fears that we can think of in relation to electricity. Also, the vehicles are super well equipped and very comfortable.
The team is very welcoming and available! Always ready to give advice or find solutions in case of problems.
In short, only for the positive, you can go for it with your eyes closed.
Thanks Family Van!
Great first time in a van with Family Van. The experience is great, Kevin was extremely thoughtful and thoughtful. We highly recommend!
We had an unforgettable experience: top welcome, circuit and logistics with the greatest care, surfing lessons with the best teacher, an ultra-comfortable and easy to drive van, exceptional encounters... Everything was perfect! In the top 5 of my best vacations ever:) Thank you The Family Van, I will be back and I recommend you 1000%!
We spent a weekend of 3 days in Gironde with a Van The Family Van.The Van is small enough to pass through parking lots that block out at 1.90m, but very well laid out and comfortable.The electric side of the vehicle brings a lot of charge and is very consistent with the slow travel that we like to do in a Van with my girlfriend.I recommend
The desire to travel in a van had been itching for some time. After several searches, we came across The Family Van. It was a wonderful experience both in terms of supporting the team in preparing the trip and the experience in an electric van.
We explored the South West for 12 days, from the beaches of Lacanau to Hossegor via the Pyrenees. We loved the freedom that the van offers thanks to its versatile size, its comfort and the tranquility of driving electric.
The region offers charging stations everywhere and at ultra-reasonable prices, magnificent spots and a jovial atmosphere.
Thanks again to The Family Van for such a great experience!
We had a great stay thanks to thefamilyvan. We went as a couple with our 2 and a half year old daughter, it was our first trip in a van and they helped to make it unforgettable!
I had heard about this company on the networks and I admit that I liked the idea of traveling by electric vehicle from an ecological point of view.
As soon as we booked our questions about the car seat (which was purchased for the occasion, thank you again!) and other details were answered very quickly.
The van was very pleasant to drive and everything needed was available. Camping chairs and a tent + duvet were even provided. Everything is ultra-functional and aesthetic what's more. The 2 seater mattress is very comfortable and suited all 3 of us!
It is very easy to do with electricity. We had a little scare in the Spanish Basque mountains with the battery running out quickly but if we honestly know it we didn't feel slowed down at all by the electricity. It's great to drive and to tell yourself that you can enjoy nature by polluting it a little less.
So we highly recommend the experience and especially with TheFamilyVan. Thanks again to the whole team for the organization and the quality property that you provide.
Claire, Raphael and Alma
We really enjoyed our stay in an electric van, it was well equipped with everything we needed.
The van is pleasant to drive and charging is very easy when camping.
The family van team is great, very friendly and responsive by message during the stay.
I rented a van from The Family Van to test the use on vacation before maybe buying one. Mission accomplished with this perfect stay on the Basque coast! As I am traveling alone, the team was great at answering my questions and gave me lots of very useful tips to make my stay a great memory. The van is very functional and easy to drive and the fact that it is an electric one is a real plus. Thanks again to the Family Van team and I hope to see you very soon!
Thanks to Noémie and Kevin for this incredible week. Very well organized surf trip. I went alone and the welcome was very warm, the group really great and the possibility of sharing the van with one diaper per person. I highly recommend if you want to discover Van Life and/or surfing. Very nice first adventure in a van, thank you again!
Excellent first campervan experience! The reception team showed us very well how the van works (the living area and how the electric vehicle works). They also recommended places to sleep and eat.
Very available via WhatsApp if needed.
We will repeat the experience with The Van Family
Superb experience in an electric van!
Top welcome and comfortable van.
Perfect. I went on a group stay, the van reception and the explanations were fluid and clear. The group atmosphere was pleasant, the surf instructor Antoine was there to listen to help us progress.
The van is very well equipped, the bedding is good and in the van there are all the accessories for cooking, connecting your phone, storing your things, showering...
Very good stay, I recommend. The team is caring, young and dynamic:)
1st experience in a van and 1st experience in an electric vehicle, we are won over! As soon as you book, all the explanations are very clear, it's a great idea to view the videos before departure as well as the recommendations on applications to download in order to facilitate the stay. The team is very responsive if you need to (which was the case to help us recharge the vehicle), which is very reassuring when you are not used to it. They are also very good advice on places where you can sleep.It's another way to think about your stay and you get used to it very quickly.We only want to do it again!
The very warm team at The Family Van offers an incredible experience out of the ordinary.
Electric vans allow total autonomy and freedom, we alternate between surfing sessions and walks in the South-West region, a delight!
Definitely a must try
Very nice first experience in a van...
Very nice first experience in a van with 2 friends! I recommend and the team is super friendly! Thank you so much
Superb experience in an electric van: silent, good autonomy, very pleasant cruise control, very pleasant living space, mountain roads without any problem etc. Really I recommend for living a different van experience and discovering slow travel!
Discretion and efficiency 👌
Collective and conviviality 🤝
Surprise and wonder 🤩🌊🏄
Thank you Noémie and KévinThank you to the June 22 group 😉💪🙏
Wonderful stay in the Family Van!
We loved traveling in this vehicle, which was very pleasant to drive and very well equipped, which allowed us to discover the Basque coast gently.
I 100% recommend The Family Van for an ecological and authentic trip:)
We had an unforgettable stay...
We had an unforgettable stay between the very well appointed van, the very kind and generous team and the magnificent days discovering the Landes and surfing, everything was perfect and very well organized!
Thanks again!

I would highly recommend this experience!
Just a great experience! On board the van I was able to experience great freedom, with magnificent natural landscapes and then surfing lessons in the same spirit! It was a great human adventure that will remain engraved in my heart! A truly magical return to basics! I am delighted and I recommend it with my eyes closed! 👌🏻🏄🏻 ♀️🌊🌿🚐🙏🏻🌈🙌🏻
Superb first experience in an electric vehicle with The Family Van! The van is very comfortable, very well thought out, furnished and equipped. Easy to drive, it quickly provides a feeling of freedom. All the information and advice shared by Kevin and Noémie allow you to leave with a light mind. Simple and practical charging ensures peaceful driving... and silent!
On the beach, in the mountains, in the forest or on a campsite, we spent quality moments and comfortable nights thanks to this van, which also fits everywhere.
A big thank you to The Family Van for your quality services, your availability and your passion that you transmit with such kindness! And above all, see you soon for new adventures!
An unforgettable road trip!
Van trip was a big first for me! Despite the unpredictable weather we were able to fully enjoy the surfing sessions and no need for sun when you are accompanied by Noémie and Kévin who are real sunbeams.
On the program: surfing, hikes, magnificent landscapes, restaurants, good humor and lots of laughter!
A journey from Dax to Sopela, then Bilbao, Somo, San Vicente, then Bilbao, Somo, San Vicente and terminus in the French Basque Country by a spot that will make you never want to leave 🤩 Leave with your eyes closed you will not regret it!
First experience in a van carried out with The Family Van Team last week in the Basque Country.
An extraordinary stay that allowed us to reconnect with nature, to discover new spots every day in a very accessible way and in complete freedom without a real detailed program; a real pleasure!
The attentive, smiling and available team takes care of you from the beginning to the end of your stay. Everything is designed to make the most of your experience. The van is very well laid out, all spaces are optimized with storage, a kitchen area, an outdoor shower, a dry toilet, a sofa that can be transformed into a double bed, an indoor and outdoor table, outdoor chairs. A lot of things are also provided so that you have as few things as possible to bring by yourself: dishes, bed linen, kitchen essentials etc.
In summary it is an experience that we loved, that is turnkey and that we recommend with our eyes closed!
It's up to you to try the adventure:)
Congratulations to The Family Van team for this different and innovative offer.
We enjoyed ourselves, both in choosing the spots and during our surfing sessions with our coach.
Thank you for listening, your professionalism and your kindness.
Long live The Family Van
I went on a weekend with The Family Van for a trip along the Landes coast, to the Basque country! On this trip, I packed my mom, our flip flops and our towels. It was not my first trip with their great electric vans and once again my opinion remains unchanged. Vans are handy, comfortable and go everywhere! I recommend you 200%
We had a great time staying with The Family Van. The team is very attentive and knew how to help us before and during the trip by making our life easier.
The van was perfectly equipped and very comfortable. We will definitely be back to explore this magnificent region in an electric van!
Just perfect! Great vans, and a lovely and available team! Nothing to say:)
First experience in a van for my boyfriend and I, we loved it. We visited the Basque country (French and Spanish) at the pace of an electric van.
We took the opportunity to surf thanks to the boards rented with the van.
The team is great and gives lots of advice for beginners in van life. They are super responsive if you have questions before or during your trip.
Before, during and after the stay, the team is at the top, and what can we say about the concept! Just incredible to arrive at a spot surrounded by nature with the softness of electricity! I recommend it to anyone who wants a simple and quiet trip.
“We rented the Uluwatu van to travel around the Basque Country for a week. It is very well equipped in terms of sleeping and cooking, we did not miss anything! The driving is very pleasant and the driver's space is very comfortable, even for long mountain trips.
Noémie and Kévin are adorable and have very good advice on using a van, share good addresses and offer tailor-made itineraries off the beaten track that allowed us to discover exceptional spots ⛰️
The rates are transparent and much more advantageous than those of competitors: no hidden costs, and a trip at a reduced price thanks to electricity!
To go on an adventure as a couple, it is ideal. Thanks The Family Van!!! 💕”
It made us want to do it again! Everything was smooth in the exchanges from the moment of booking and very easy. Nothing is complicated, Noémie and Kévin are very attentive, very reassuring and very available (very helpful even at a distance regardless of the problem). Getting around in an electric vehicle is very easy, the van is very well equipped and functional. You get used to the rhythm of Van Life very quickly! Warning: you would quickly become an addict
Unforgettable experience with The family...
I recommend this unforgettable experience with The Family Van, Kévin and Noémie are incredibly kind, attentive and very professional, between the first contact and the meeting on site everything was put together in an irreproachable manner.
The 5 days in a surfskate yoga van trip that I spent with the group were a pure delight, being the veteran of the band (53 years old) I had a little apprehension but I immediately felt at ease as if we had known each other forever.
The surfskate lessons with @tensehorr allowed me to progress well thanks to Hortense who is very attentive, pro, patient, pedagogue and who provided us with excellent boards from the Yow brand
The vehicles are very well maintained, equipped and very practical.
Thank you for everything, don't change anything you are great and I wish you all the best for the future.
See you next year to do it again.
A van, an infinity of options
You are unique! Choose the stay that's right for you, with or without our help. Go alone, in pairs, in three, or in a group.

Frequently asked questions
What is included in the individual rental?
When you rent a van for individual use, you get free bedding, outdoor accessories (camping table and chairs), as well as all cooking equipment (cutlery, utensils, stove and a gas bottle) free of charge. Basic multi-risk insurance is also included, and free of charge.
How do your group stays/itinerant surfcamps work?
At The Family Van, each surfcamp is a unique adventure, composed of a fleet of 3 to 7 vans, with 1 to 3 people per vehicle, thus forming a close-knit group. You will be accompanied by Noémie and Kévin, the co-founders of The Family Van, throughout your journey.
What makes our surfcamps exceptional is their itinerant nature: every day, you will explore the region in your campervan, from Biscarrosse to Saint Jean de Luz, and surf on world-famous spots thanks to daily lessons.
The days are divided into two parts: a half-day dedicated to surfing lessons, and the other to discovering the region and activities such as village visits, tastings of local products, aperitifs on the beach/guinguettes, shopping sessions, more free surfing sessions in addition to lessons.
Our desire is to offer a differentiating and complete experience unlike traditional surfcamps during which you stay in the same place during the week. Roaming and traveling in a van also create a special atmosphere and proximity for an unforgettable stay.
Are surf camps open for all levels?
Our surfcamps are open to everyone, whether you are a beginner or at a more advanced level! Our teachers adapt to your level to offer you personalized courses and help you progress at your own pace.
How does the tailor-made stay option work?
After discussing your travel project (budget, interests, essentials...), our team creates a tailor-made roadbook. It includes a detailed itinerary and daily recommendations for activities, exclusive addresses, and accommodation suggestions. You can then give us your feedback so that we can adjust the roadbook to suit you.
What is the autonomy of the van?
Our vans have a range of 330 km and are equipped with fast charging (40 minutes). This long range and fast charging make electric vehicles perfectly suited and compatible with campervan travel.
How long does it take to charge the van?
On a fast charging station, charging a vehicle with 10 to 85% autonomy takes 35 to 40 minutes on average: the time to have a coffee and clean the van before leaving!
You also have the option of recharging the van at slow charging stations (between 2 and 7 hours for the slowest ones) or at the campsite, overnight.
It's up to you to choose the most suitable option according to your itinerary.
