Rent your bike or electric travel bike in Dax, in the southwest

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! 🏄 ‍ ♂️

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!

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!

It's my first experience in an electric van and it's a success! I recommend The Family Van to all travelers who want to travel off the beaten path.

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:)

Very nice discovery of the South-West with the 100% electric van! Everything is well thought out and optimized inside. The autonomy of the van is sufficient for a discovery of the region over a few days. The Family Van team was very attentive. Despite the fairly cool weather we enjoyed it and we recommend it with pleasure!

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!

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

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! 👌🏻🏄🏻 ‍ ♀️🌊🌿🚐🙏🏻🌈🙌🏻

Great stay with this van, super well appointed and very comfortable. We enjoyed good weather between the Landes coast and the Basque coast. No worries with autonomy and there is everything you need on board to get lost on the best spots. The team was particularly friendly and available, we highly recommend it!

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.

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.

Incredible

Incredible, despite the changeable weather, a first experience in a van that went perfectly thanks to The Family Van. Thanks!

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:)

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.

A first in an electric van that went very well!

A friendly, responsive and attentive team. There was everything you needed to travel for a few days. We had brought a small extra blanket in view of the temperatures (February). We did not plan a specific itinerary and gradually came up with recommended places or found on the internet. To be done again!

Everything was perfect!

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:)

First experience in an equipped van and first experience in an electric vehicle so a bit of apprehension.
But the team at The Family was very available and very efficient in answering all our questions and put us in the best conditions to make the most of the stay.
The vehicles are in excellent condition and are very easy to handle.
In addition, the fact that it is 1.90m high allows you to park everywhere, which is extremely practical.
I recommend without hesitation!

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

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!!

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.

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%.

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.

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!

Just perfect! Great vans, and a lovely and available team! Nothing to say:)

Recently rented a campervan from The Family Van for a week of road trip and it was just great! The van was equipped with everything I needed for a super comfortable trip. And the company's service was impeccable and very welcoming. I highly recommend it for all future travelers looking for a great experience. Thanks again and I will not hesitate to repeat that this summer:)!

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

We tested the ThevanFamily electric van during a 4-day road trip in Landes. We really enjoyed this ecological and economic experience. Indeed, there was no need to fill up with gas (that's the principle) and to recharge, we stopped for the night at campsites or used fast charging stations during our lunch breaks or visits. And what about the layout of the van? Ideal for 1 or 2 people, it offers bed, fridge and kitchen space. A small studio on wheels, super practical. Personally, we fully subscribe to this new concept.

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!

We had a great trip with The Family Van, I highly recommend them!! We rented an electric van for two people for a week. Everything went very well, the van is spacious and comfortable! We had no problems whatsoever with the vehicle's equipment and the recharging of the vehicle. Hoping to be able to go back with them this summer!!

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, 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

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:)

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.

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

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...

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.

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!

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;)

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!

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:)

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!!

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

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.

First experience in an equipped van and first experience in an electric vehicle so a bit of apprehension.
But the team at The Family was very available and very efficient in answering all our questions and put us in the best conditions to make the most of the stay.
The vehicles are in excellent condition and are very easy to handle.

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).

An incredible stay with valuable advice on good addresses in the region, crazy responsiveness in order to know the beaches where to surf, a very pleasant team, a super well equipped van that allowed us to have a wonderful stay. Thanks for everything, I recommend 2000%! 💛
