Blending Comfort and Nostalgia

The success of van life owes much to advancements in layout and comfort, transforming camping into a chic and trendy pursuit – an extension of the glamorous camping trend, or “glamping.” The Type Holidays seamlessly integrates the SpaceTourer’s virtues, including spaciousness, tranquility, and user-friendly features like sliding side doors and an independently opening tailgate window.

Elevating the Experience with Expert Partners

Citroën’s collaboration with Bravia Mobil, a renowned Slovenian specialist, elevates the Type Holidays to new heights of comfort and functionality. A pop-up roof provides ample headroom and accommodates a spacious bed for two, while a versatile bench seat converts into a cozy sleeping area. Swiveling front seats facilitate a fluid transition between driving and relaxation spaces. The inclusion of a fully-equipped kitchenette, complete with a cooking area, sink, and fridge, ensures that culinary delights are never compromised on the road. Additional thoughtful touches like a folding table and clever storage solutions enhance the overall experience.
