Gandalf is a magical van
Although it may seem too good to be true, this van is not a work of fiction. Gandalf is a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, custom-built by Automotive Designs & Fabrications, and the perfect camper van for six people! This van is located near San Francisco so the whole family can explore the magic of the Bay Area (and beyond) in complete comfort. With a 7-night minimum, this van is perfect for long-term adventures!
“The world is not in your books and maps. It is out there.” – Gandalf
With room for up to six passengers, Gandalf will take you on a road trip to remember. The super-comfortable bunk beds in the back are basically Sleepover Central. And all of the seats swivel to create a spacious living and dining area. Gandalf’s powers never cease!
Other on-board amenities include:
- kitchen sink with water pump
- built-in induction stove
- electric refrigerator
- exterior shower with hot and cold water
- portable cassette toilet
Gandalf is ready for anything. With a built-in heater and 4×4 capabilities, this Mercedes-Benz Sprinter camper van stays cozy and steadfast in wintery weather. There’s also a ceiling fan to keep you cool when it warms up. And Gandalf has plenty of power to offer thanks to the solar panels, lithium batteries, and shore power hookups. Whether you’re camping off grid, cruising the coast, or meandering in the mountains, you’ll be happy to have Gandalf at your side.
This camper van can be your home away from home (on wheels!) and your sage guide to van life. When you rent from GoCamp, all you need to do is grab some groceries, load up, and head out! And don’t forget your gear because there’s plenty of storage space in the “garage” under the platform beds and in the overhead cabinets.
If you need a camper van for six people, then look no further. Be as wise as a wizard and rent Gandalf for your next vancation!
