MEET OUR FLEET

TRAVEL DOWN OLD ROADS & SOAK UP NEW MEMORIES

Experience the 70's

There’s something magic about a Kombi. The way it rumbles to life + makes strangers smile and wave as you drive by. The way time seems to slow down the moment you step inside. It's a rare experience that only the kombi delivers.

When you hire a Kombi, you’re not just getting a beautiful vintage van, you’re getting the easygoing, fun-loving energy of Alyce and George, who make every step of the journey feel relaxed, personal, and full of positive vibes.

George brings over 20 years of hands-on Kombi experience to the heart of our business. He has and continues to meticulously mechanically maintain each van in our fleet and you can feel his passion for what he does when you jump in our kombi's.

You will fall in love with the simplicity, joy and freedom that they offer.

In a world moving so fast, a Kombi offers something we’re all quietly craving. The chance to unplug, reconnect, and experience life in a way that feels real + authentic, just like their aircooled engines.

These vans are rare, iconic, and deeply nostalgic. They transform the journey into something unforgettable.

Whether you’re heading out for a slow weekend by the sea, planning the most meaningful wedding, or creating a brand shoot that needs soul, a Kombi elevates it.

There are plenty of ways to travel but only one that feels like this.

    Nothing beats driving along the Great Ocean Road in Dawson. Alyce + George were lovely and only a phone call away if we had a question. Highly recommend!

    Wow, I can’t recommend George and Alyce’s services enough, great people and very well maintained Kombi’s. I will be telling everyone to use them and hopefully we’ll get to use them again very soon!

    What I really loved about Hire A Kombi was the dedication they have to your adventure. The kombi vans are beautiful and give you that timeless iconic feel.  The ability to venture off into the rugged wilds of the Great Ocean Road, find a beautiful spot and create your little home is wonderful!  It felt liberating and like every moment should be captured in an old Polaroid and pinned to cork board. They’ve created a world where you not only get a beautiful adventure, but an opportunity to do something that will stand boldly and beautifully in your memory. Its so freakin worth it!

    Alyce and George were lovely to talk with and so very helpful in the planning of things. The Kombi’s ran so well and had everything we needed on board! When one dreams about a trip like this for so long and then it finally happens it sometimes isn’t what you hoped for but this trip was 100 x better!! We enjoyed it so much we didn’t want to come home! The Kombi’s ran perfectly and we had all 4 of us sleeping in the van and the kids loved being in the pop top… Thank YOU for making the best trip possible!

    My family and I hired Harriett for the day to celebrate my dads 60th + had the most amazing time driving around the Bellarine and hasn't stopped talking about it. Everyone fit without a problem + the picnic rug came in handy - we'll definitely be renting again the next time we visit!

    We were stoked to be the very first customers of Hire a Kombi! My family and I had planned a trip to travel the Great Ocean Road and we wanted to do it in style – and Kombi style is the best. Our kombi was gorgeous, beautiful to drive and suited us perfectly. George and Alyce are fantastic people to deal with, always accommodating and their love of Kombis is a deep one. Hire a Kombi is a unique venture, one which we would recommend to anyone.

    These guys are absolute legends + I cannot recommend hiring a kombi enough! I've had the most amazing adventures with my daughter + friends. I was so apprehensive my first time driving but Alyce + George are so incredibly lovely + supportive. They talked me through everything + I felt like I could always call them if I needed anything, which I didn't because beautiful Clancy was an absolute dream to drive. Everyone I have taken with me has fallen in love with dreams of the endless summer in a kombi! Thanks again + you will definitely be seeing me again!

    We spent our days enjoying the iconic Great Ocean Road scenery between Lorne and Princetown, stopping to eat, play and explore beautiful beaches along the way. It was an idyllic weekend holiday. Gracie gave us the freedom to take it in at leisure, without the need to make plans or book ahead. My 6 year old son Leo declared it our best holiday ever, and didn’t once ask “Are we there yet?” Alyce and George – thank you for providing a fantastic service, without any pretensions.

    "We used Hire a Kombi for our Dangerfield Spring Summer campaign and they were a joy to work with. The team were friendly, accommodating and very professional. I was in charge of the production side of the shoot and hadn't been to the area before. They discussed location options, sent me lots of photos and helped me to come up with a plan to get the most out of my Kombi hire and photos. They were also very quick in replying to my emails and great at communication prior to the shoot. The end result was fantastic and we couldn't be happier! Thank you!"
