Monia's Converted van

Have you ever dreamed about starring in your own road trip movie? Surely there is no better way to finally do it than in this iconic VW camper van from 1972. 

Wendy doesn't have the comforts of a hotel or a new camper, but she is a legend, the history of travel. She also has a custom built wooden interior that is super cozy.

Sleep on the beach under the stars and explore the treasure island of Tenerife with its misty mountains, deserts and winding roads. The road awaits you!

IMPORTANT! Wendy is an old lady and may only travel on the south coast of Tenerife (see details below). Insurance requires minimum driver age 26 with minimum 2 years of driving licence.

Welcome onboard Our perfect old VW Westfalia Bay has a wooden interior and a bit of hippy style to turn your vacation into a real journey.

Tenerife You will also get access to our interactive map with our personal favourites, accessible from any device. Where to sleep, eat, drink, surf, hike, chill, drop your yaw and more - far beyond the tourist traps.

We think of Tenerife as Treasure Island. The beaches, misty mountains and mystic forests are right out of an adventure book. Add an almost Martian desert, timeless villages, vibrant cities and a South American vibe and you have Europe’s most diverse destination. Luckily for us vintage van enthusiasts it’s also small enough to explore at a slow island pace.

Conditions

• Minimum age 26 years old with minimum 2 years of driving licence.

• Wendy is a old lady and can't go everywhere on a mountainous island like Tenerife. Her use is limited to beach hopping the south of the island, which is where our best spots are anyway. Specifically, she can go between Los Gigantes in the northwest to Las Teresitas beach in the northeast, and in altitude up to the roads TF-82 and TF-28. This means no Teide, Masca, Anaga or north coast.

• Delivery will take place in Los Cristianos. Unfortunately we don't have the possibility to offer a transfer or delivery elsewhere.

• An old van is not easy to drive and needs good care. We will do a test drive and you need to be able to drive it well before taking off.

• We will sign a regular rent-a-car contract when you check in. A basic road insurance is included.

• Wendy will meet you with a full tank of GASOLINE (95/98) and you return her the same way.

• She will also have a full fresh water tank. Please fill it up and empty the grey water before returning (see our map for good places).

• In case of mechanical breakdown we will reimburse the remaining days.

• It's a good idea to pack soft bags, since there is little space for hard suitcases onboard.

Please take care of our baby. We are custodians of a heritage and would like to see our vehicles around for another 40 years. Travel slow, take in the moment, don’t go off-roading and just use common sense. Let the adventure begin!
