And when it comes to hitting the open road in style, there's nothing quite like a classic Volkswagen Westfalia camper van.But not just any old camper van rental will do, my friends. You need the kind of ride that's been lovingly restored, meticulously maintained, and fully equipped for whatever the road throws your way. And that's where our story begins.Nestled on the shores of Vancouver Island, surrounded by towering trees and breathtaking vistas, is a humble little rental business called Karabana Kampers that's been turning heads and winning hearts for years. Our fleet of classic VWs has been handpicked and expertly restored, with every detail lovingly attended to. From the cozy interior cabinetry to the ruggedly dependable engines, these vans are the real deal. These vans have been outfitted with everything you need for a comfortable and memorable road trip, from kitchen gear to bedding to outdoor adventure gear.We’re true Westfalia enthusiasts, passionate about sharing the magic of the open road with visitors to the island. We’ll happily share insider tips and local recommendations, helping you make the most of your time on this wild and beautiful coast.Whether you're chasing waves, seeking solitude, or simply soaking up the stunning scenery, these vans are the perfect companions for your journey. So pack your bags, buckle up, and get ready for an adventure you'll never forget.FYI - Currently undergoing a full restoration and will be ready for June 2023 (please see our other listing, Mojito, for what this Westy will look like when complete.)What's includedLinens
