Modern life can be exhausting. We all need to get away from it all occasionally, whether we live in the city, suburb, or the country. And if you can do so without having to step foot on a plane, all the better. Thankfully, for those who want to avoid any unnecessary visits to the airport, the camper van is in the midst of something of a golden age.
Today’s camper van, known to the heads as a Class B motorhome, is nothing like the modified Volkswagen Microbus of your youth. They may sleep fewer people than their relative, the driveway-filling RV, but the current crop still has room for everything you need to feel at home while on the road. Manufacturers and conversion shops like Airstream, Boho and Westfalia, are packing their vehicles with high-end kitchens, WiFi-enabled multimedia systems, plush beds, and, in some cases, full bathrooms with showers. Thanks to all these creature comforts, roughing it is a thing of the past. Plus, their smaller size means they are more agile, off-road friendly, and easier to park.
Below are 16 camper vans that will let you experience all that #vanlife has to offer in comfort and style.
