Bicycle-surfcamp for beginners, in groups, by bike or electric bike

Fantastic experience with The Family Van, the vans are very comfortable, the electric brings a very pleasant softness and silence. The team is attentive, super friendly and very available. The loan of surf equipment is a big plus and the lessons were super well supervised. I recommend 100%.

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!

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.

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

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!!

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.

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

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.

The Family Van Group Stay

We spent a wonderful week with friends.
Breathtaking landscapes, wild surfing sessions, and above all, laughter and good humor:)
Thanks to Kevin and Noémie for their dedication and their perfect organization.

See you next year!!!

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!

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!

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!

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!

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! 🏄 ‍ ♂️

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:)

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!!

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

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:)

Really great Vantrip experience

Really great experience. 5 days of VanTrip surfskate/yoga that went wonderfully! Thank you Noémie and Kevin for their kindness, their smiles and their professionalism! See you soon for new adventures

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! 👌🏻🏄🏻♀️🌊🌿🚐🙏🏻🌈🙌🏻

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!!

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).

The Van is very well equipped with all the necessary comforts. The campsites selected are top notch. Very good experience

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.

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.

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 experience that I highly recommend:) The van is comfortable and super well appointed. Driving is intuitive, and the electric battery is not a problem thanks to route planning. We slept and surfed in incredible places, accompanied by a great teacher (thank you Antoine)! Thank you Kevin and Noémie for your availability from the beginning to the end of the stay, we'll see you again!

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%!

An incredible experience
A perfect week alongside Kevin and Noémie, in a perfectly equipped electric van.
An ideal program with surf lessons every morning, discovery of this sublime region, well-selected restaurants to invigorate yourself and even freesurfing sessions at sunset for the most motivated.

If you want to meet new people, experience exceptional moments, live the van life to the fullest and improve your surfing skills: this is the ideal stay.

Thank you so much to The Family Van team, I leave with exceptional memories

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.

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:)

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 🌞

A great human and surfing adventure!

The Family Van offers a very well thought-out route, from the Arcachon Bay to the Basque Country, for perfect sports and tourist holidays!
Kevin and Noëmie accompanied us for this week of surfing, skateboarding, walking, hiking... Thanks to them, the group was able to spend good human moments around aperitifs and barbecues in magnificent places.
As for the van, it is very well equipped and has everything you need for a nomad/camping life. In addition to being very easy to drive thanks to the electric one!
In short, nothing but good, do not hesitate and go for it:)

Long live TV!

Superb week

Great week: friends, surfing, hiking and tapas!
We started as a group in Dax and then in 2 hours we arrived in San Sebastian. We discovered the Spanish Basque Country and the Cantabria region, which is really worth a visit. And we went back to the French Basque Country the last two days.
