Airlie Beach Kombis
- Written by Corrie Gardner
Taking you right back to the 1960s, Airlie Beach Kombis is a specialised transport provider giving you that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bring a touch of magical nostalgia to your special occasion.
Airlie Beach Kombis is a super cool new Whitsunday service which offers groups of up to seven the opportunity to have a fun drive down memory lane and embrace some authentic vintage beach culture. The chauffeur driven 1963 “splitty' Kombi is a classy two-toned cream and white duco with gleaming chrome and can transport small groups in style to weddings, parties, graduations and formals, shopping tours, progressive dinners and more.
Create memorable photographic opportunities and turn some heads as you travel around Airlie Beach, Shute Harbour and Proserpine in this vintage vehicle everyone loves and remembers from a by-gone era. Sit back in her decadent cream upholstery, crank up the Beach Boys on the stereo, open the sunroof and safari windows and enjoy the smiles on the faces of everyone you see. Kombi cruising doesn't get any better than this.
Owner Greg McKinnon from BIG4 Adventure Whitsunday Resort says, “I saw this classic beauty on my travels and thought how perfectly it fitted into the whole Whitsunday theme. No matter your age, everyone loves a Kombi and it is an iconic symbol of happiness, freedom, youth, travel and just cruising around. Our aim is to bring a little ray of sunshine to town and an extra level of enjoyment for people organising a special occasion.”
Hire charges start at $350 for two hours including a chauffeur. You can find Airlie Beach Kombis on Facebook and Instagram, more information at www.airliebeachkombis.com.au or call 07 4948 5444 to book the retro ride of your life.
