Thank you for watching, Mind's Eye Design!
After many years of travel between Europe and Africa, the company Truck Surf Hotel
wants to share the wonders found in both continents.
They've explored the various cultures, shredded all the surf spots,
made a bundle of friends along the way, and experienced the ultimate adventure.
Now, they have developed a wonderful service named after the company. It will take you on
your own incredible adventure with uncrowded surf spots, natural parks, and new cultures.
So without further ado, let's hop into what Truck Surf Hotel is all about.
For many, time outdoors is a necessity that calls to them, beckoning them to a place of simplicity.
The Truck Surf Hotel offers a unique reprieve from the world by offering
a stay in its converted Mercedes Actros with everything you could need on your excursion.
This double-decker is decorated with light-colored
paneling that evokes the feeling of the open sea comforting you.
At the same time, the interior has a pleasant soft look that only helps you relax.
The walls and ceilings expand when at rest, offering a truly open and spacious stay.
It can host up to five rooms, so you can go as a group and enjoy your time abroad
with your friends and family, or you can go alone and make some new pals along the way!
Each room even comes equipped with air conditioning and a locker for storage.
There's a living room that the whole bus can lounge in
and a kitchen stocked with all the amenities you could need for a nice meal.
The bathroom has a toilet and shower so you can maintain your hygiene and keep yourself clean.
Windows are abundant aboard the hotel offering up gorgeous view after gorgeous view
in either Portugal or Morocco.
There's even a terrace if you prefer your vistas like you prefer your vacations; outdoors.
But that's enough of the hotel, what about the adventure?
Well, from June to October, you can catch a journey through Portugal,
with trips to either northern or southern Portugal, depending on the date.
From December to March, you can catch a trip through Morocco.
Each trip offers some packages that you
can opt into for whatever flavor of activities you want to partake in.
You can learn to surf at any site or catch some of the best waves of your life at uncrowded beaches.
If you already know how to shred some gnarly waves.
In addition, you can expect to be picked up at the airport
or train station you arrive at for convenience.
The Northern Portugal trip will see you traveling
the Green Coast from the Porto region to the Spanish border.
You'll enjoy sandy beaches, green mountains, forests, and gorgeous waterfalls along your way.
Of course, traditional cuisine and wine are in order as well.
The Southern Portugal trip introduces nearly two hundred miles of coastlines,
from the pristine beaches of Costa Vicentino with cliffs and luxurious coastal cities
to São Torpes, Vila Nova de Milfontes, Vila de Bispo, and much more.
If beaches and surfing aren't your cups of tea,
then you can enjoy some outdoor activities such as biking, horseback riding,
or trekking at the coastal trails that the Costa Vicentino natural park offers.
Finally, Morocco, where you can ride a camel through the beach while enjoying a daiquiri.
The company will show you Morocco's mountains, oases, deserts, and long beaches.
You can try the local cuisine at various hot spots like Imsouane and Agadir!
If the Truck Surf Hotel seems like a good time to you, reservations are going for around
nine hundred and fifty dollars per person, with variance based on date and package.
As always, thank you for watching, and we hope you enjoyed the video.

The eleMMent Palazzo Superior has the distinction of being the most expensive RV in the world.
And in the world of luxury, extravagance, and price are the defining factors.
Weighing in at 28 tons, it has a length of 45 feet with an expanded width just over 16 feet.
The design has a height of 13 feet which increases to 20 feet when the sky lounge is raised.
The raised cab sits behind a large, circular windshield that
looks cyclopean while still providing an almost uninterrupted panoramic view.
An integrated set of stairs on the side fold down,
allowing access to a living area approximately 732 square feet in size.
The lounge area sits directly behind the cab with an extendable sofa, table, and wall-mounted TV.
The centrally located kitchen includes a large hidden refrigerator, induction cooktop, and oven.
Across from that is the dual entrance bathroom
with a 16-square-foot rain shower and a fancy wall-mounted toilet.
Separated by a sliding door system is the circle-shaped bedroom,
which has a king-size bed and a large vanity area.
The pinnacle is a sky lounge on an automated lift system that raises out of the roof area.
Safety railings all the way around and a canopy with integrated lighting make
it the ideal place for getting some sun. Access is via a retractable stairway below.
This one from Anderson Mobile Estates is nicknamed "The Heat," and it's
known for being owned by the actor Will Smith.
The two-level home away from home offers almost
1,200 square feet of usable space when the multiple slide-outs are extended.
The lower level houses a full kitchen with a large dinette, a make-up mirror with a hidden
TV that raises out of the countertop, and a private lounge area in the rear.
Stairs at the front lead to a forward bathroom and the upper level.
The full bathroom extends the width of the trailer,
offering a steam shower and a glass door that turns opaque to provide privacy.
The top floor has a retractable roof that raises to add another 3 1/2 feet to the height.
It contains a lounge area with a bar and enough space for up to 30 people.
Extras include 14 TVs throughout,
a 100-inch projection screen, and 360-degree video surveillance.
This entry from Vario Mobil is built around a Mercedes-Benz Actros chassis
measuring just over 39 feet in length with a width of 8 1/2 feet.
And like another one on this list, it has a mobile garage integrated into the design.
The lounge includes a sofa, an extendable L-shaped couch, a coffee
table that electrically raises and lowers, and a 40-inch TV that lifts out of the countertop.
The centrally located kitchen includes an induction cooktop, a flush-mounted sink,
and a 210-liter refrigerator/freezer, while across from that is a dinette
with seating for two and a 24-inch TV that lifts out of the countertop.
Behind this is a sliding door leading to a full-size bathroom extending the width
of the motorhome, which includes a toilet, a trough-style sink, and a glass-enclosed shower.
Leading off from this is a bedroom that has a queen size bed and a 40-inch wall-mounted TV.
A ceiling-mounted queen-size bed in the cab area provides additional sleeping space along
with the lounge seating and dinette that convert to extra beds as well.
The garage is located in the rear and can be accessed via a large external hatch
that raises to reveal a space large enough to carry a small sportscar.
With its headquarters in Austria,
Krug Expedition has been creating heavy-duty safari and expedition vehicles since 2011.
Their latest offering is Project Rhino,
a rock-solid off-roader built on the back of a Mercedes Benz Atego chassis.
The whole thing weighs a surprisingly lightweight 15,212 pounds, and I say
lightweight compared to other motorhomes, which start at 17,637 pounds and work their way up.
Despite its nimble size,
you're still going to need a European C1 truck license in order to drive it on the roads.
Project Rhino's motorhome module is constructed out of 60-mm reinforced sandwich panels
made of fiberglass and aluminum, providing complete insulation from the elements.
Each Rhino comes with 365/80 R 20 offroad tires,
quick access steps, and a rear cargo box built into the chassis.
You'll also find a generous 32 square-foot garage for gear and luggage storage.
Mounted up top is a driver's cab roof rack with an LED light bar,
and Labcraft Scenelights provide up to 1700 lumens of additional lighting on the side.
Also, on the roof, you'll find 915 watts of solar panels
that connect to the 5000V inverter and an upgraded 300-Ah 24-V lithium-ion battery bank.
As an additional upgrade, owners of Project Rhino can add a second roof rack,
a rear-view camera, and a semi-automatic tire inflation system.
Access to the inside comes either via the side door or pass-through to the driver's
cab. It's an option, but at 35 inches by 23 inches, it can be a tight squeeze.
Once inside, it's an entirely different space. Gone are the rugged lines and bland paint jobs.
Instead, the interior is a sleek, modern modular apartment
with all the amenities you could want in a home away from home.
A generous floor plan features a large rear bed, sliding table and dining area,
full-featured kitchen with fridge/freezer combo, and induction cooktop.
Hidden neatly behind the dinette's backrest is a vertical lift TV
that can be pulled out or tucked away when not needed.
Towards the front of the module, the wet bathroom includes HPL flooring,
a waterless composting toilet, a shower, and underfloor water collection.
Project Rhino has tanks for both fresh and gray water, 75 and 37 gallons, respectively.
A Webasto Dual Top Evo 8 diesel heating system
provides both cabin heat and hot water to the 3-gallon boiler.
There's no official price listed for Project Rhino;
Krug asks interested buyers to contact them directly. Despite this,
a listing for a recently completed model on a third-party website listed one as $330,475
