ORIGIN campervans is run by inspired entrepreneurs who are outdoors fan who love travelling, meet people and have a great time camping.
Backpacking in South America, Surf in Indonesia, Trekking in Nepal, Exploring the outback in Australia to finally settle down for a few years in New Zealand, where we lived "the" campervan experience.
Back to Europe, we realized how travelling around Europe and specially in France could be expensive! It is why we’ve decided to offer the possibility to all the budget travelers who enjoy freedom and adventure to discover our beautiful country!
So, we've launched our campervan rental agency, offering budget campervans that are bang up to date!
Because security is a must, with which we don’t compromise!
We’ve purchased and fitted a fleet of brand new Transporter Volkswagen in memory of the good old Combi VW.
(and we kept the style from the 6O’s with all those colorful flowers!!). Origin Campervans wants to distinguish itself with its customer focus service and by ensuring maximum security.
Please do not hesitate to contact us, should you require any further information.
We look forward welcoming you in France!
