About Retro Campervans
Not your ordinary fleet, you will surely experience a step back in time without breaking the bank with Retro Campervans. Travel the scenic Australian open roads with your reliable vintage Volkswagen or classical Kombi.
At Retro Campervans, they offer a rather unique fleet — a compilation of exclusively classical models of Kombi, Volkswagen, Beetle, and mid-ranged Mitsubishi Express. The antique style will seriously lure those with retro hearts. What's more fascinating with the vintage fleet, especially the Kombis, are the large-scaled windows and pop-out roofs that provide panoramic scenery of the Australian countryside. And you actually don't need to spend heaps of money to experience a vintage road trip because most units are rented out at affordable rates. Aside from their main branch in Byron Bay, they have new drop-off areas — Ballina Airport, Brisbane Airport, and Gold Coast Airport.
