When you think of traveling abroad, traveling the countryside in a teardrop doesn’t traditionally come to mind. As more people redefine their travel experiences and embrace the non-traditional, foreign caravan trips are becoming widely well known.
Various countries may have their own take on a retro teardrop, and the country of France is no different. French manufacturers have taken the traditional tiny camper and completely redesigned it to find other options to fill a need!
Carapate Adventure campers are the perfect example of a unique caravan that has taken camping by storm.
Who is Carapate Adventure?
Owners and designers Jean-Marie and Fabien are French business owners.
They launched The Carapate Adventure in 2019 to create a line of new style teardrop models. With backgrounds in interior architecture and design, working with small space designs was a natural fit for them both.
Sharing their passion for unusual design and modifications, creating an alternative to traditional teardrops fell in line with their goals. Not only do they offer their teardrop models for sale, Carapate Adventure provides rentals using their inventory.
With distinctive features, you will find their teardrop models a delight!
