VAN TOUR: Renault Master Campervan Conversion for Vanlife Australia | DIY, luxury, off-grid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- Hi! We are Maddie and Dan and we've spent the past 6 months converting a Renault Master into a fully customised campervan! His name is Rio and we'd love to give you a full tour of everything we've built into him.
Follow us on our travels on Instagram @tranquilatravels
We give a full in depth tour of the kitchen, dining area, bedroom, storage, pull out bench, roof deck and plenty more!
The van was fully built by us with the help of:
- Ben the builder
- Ryan the auto electrician
- and of course Dan's main man, Dad.
The video covers most parts of our van, however if you would like any advice or recommendations please feel free to leave us a comment or message us on our Instagram (@tranquilatravels). We'd be more than happy to help. Dan didn't want to get too technical in the van tour video to save the boredom for those not interested.

What a lovely conversion. I’m thinking of getting a bigger van next year, I need all the storage space 😅 this has given me lots of ideas! 💡
Thank you! Good luck with your build 😁
Good to see Aussie van lifers ! I have a long wheel base Renault master van I’m currently converting and boy is it overwhelming but I can’t wait to hit the road and travel my beautiful country Australia 🇦🇺 blessings form melb 💜
Excited for you! Vanlife in Australia is the best. We are so lucky to have this beautiful country to explore! Good luck with the build - it will be worth the effort!
Been checking a few vans and it seems like this could be a good choice in the future for me. Started planning with sketching out the open floor plan with toilet/shower and smaller kitchen space. More room for lounging and office/entertainment for single old me. 😊
The slide out bench and table is so awesome! Love your color scheme too. Very beautiful!
thank you!
wow the van looks beautiful! what a great space.
Thanks 😄
Wowweeee you’ve done such a fab job this is so so cool!! 🤗👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much 🤗
you put a lot of work into the van, some interesting features
Awesome video!
Thanks!
well done, good video
Thanks!
Awesome tour guys! I’m just editing our van tour 🚐🙌🏼✨🧡 Subscribed & following along yewww
Thanks so much! 💕💕 Looking forward to seeing your tour! We're already subscribed to yours hehe 😊
Looks good.
thank you!
I came up with an idea to take a shower 50/50 indoor and outdoor with this size van. Is the same thing you created at the back of the van with those heavy duty sliders to hold a persons weights and also a clip to the edges of the doors so u have a square space and shower curtains wrapped around the space your in. If it’s raining there’s a small awning at the top to cover up. But if your parked on a mountain facing the sea who needs curtains😂 And the great idea with skipping the process with a ladder giving access to strangers climbing up there is the same idea you did by climbing up the roof from the roof vent. 👍🏿
Like this van conversion very much a pull out shade outside would be a good idea ...cheers from Melbourne
Thank you Jan!
Loving videos we also are building out a master. How did you set up your fresh and grey water?
지붕 위로 올라가는게 너무 재밌을듯^^
캠핑카 너무 예쁨❤️❤️
Very nice guys. Good luck
Thanks heaps!
Amazing build guys! I love the kitchen. It’s exactly what I’m doing in mine.
Can I ask where you got your sink? As you say, seems the perfect size
thanks so much Juan! We got our sink from Bunnings - one of the cheapest ones there! Good luck with your build🤙
Really nice 👍
Thank you Wendy!
Hi, a quick question for Dan, what waste water tank do you have? I cant find one anywhere for a renault master series 3 that sits under the van. Great channel by the way. Hope you can help me. Regards, sam.
Молодцы. Уютный дом.
Hey guys,
Your van has definitely inspired us. We have recently purchased a 2015 Renault Master MWB as well. Looking at fitting it out ourselves over the next 5 months.
How do you find having to use a solar blanket rather than a fixed solar panel? Where in the van have you guys kept your batteries/inverter/charger?
What did you guys use for insulation and did you include any sound deadening in the build as well?
Thanks in advance and thanks for inspiring!
Heya!! This message made us so happy - glad to have inspired you. And you've made a great choice, we love our Renault.
We are completely fine with the solar blanket because we have a charger that turns on when the engine is running - so if we drive a little each day it's fine! The solar blanket is good for topping up on days we don't move, but we don't need it regularly! All of that is kept next to the fridge behind the driver's seat. We used a combination of Earth wool and aluminium insulation; super happy with it and that provided enough sound deadening for us.
Good luck with your build! Let us know if you have anymore Qs
@@TranquilaTravels Thanks so much for your response guys. Appreciate it!
Hi Iv just bought a 2010 Master and I’m struggling with awning adapters. I currently have two roof bars in the ‘fixed’ roof points. Does your awning utilise these points or is it completely separate from the pre existing roof bar mounting points?
Hi guys! Your van looks amazing. I was wondering what the dimensions are of your Renault Master?
Hey! Thank you 🙌 it is the medium wheel base so it is approx 5.5m in length, 2m wide and 2.6m high
PS the stripes add alot of demensio. So many smart features on ya ...
We love our beachy strips. Thanks :)
Which height/length variant is your model?
nice van. I wonder if it's mid wheel base or short ?
Thank you! Mid wheel base 😊
@@TranquilaTravels thanks :)
I cannot get over how u built this from scratch ! No professional help? How?
Haha thanks! I had the help of a few people along the way but other than that, I just gave it a crack and it turned out pretty good 🤙
Still happy with the master a year later?
Yep love it! Zero issues at all 😊
What’s the size of the van?
The external is 5.5m x 2.6m :)
Where's the private toilet n shower, wouldn't be without mine. Every lady deserves one.
There are heaps of public showers and toilets around Aus, we haven't had a problem yet!
