If I asked you to ‘describe an Airstream Camper’ then you’d probably go for the classic shape that we all know and love, or maybe the new Airstream Basecamp Trailer if you’ve been swotting up on your Van Clan articles. You probably wouldn’t start describing mercedes sprinter conversions or an interstate luxury dream ride (sorry, we’re getting a little bit carried away). Let us introduce you to the Airstream Interstate Nineteen, a touring camper for the modern day nomad.

Airstream Camper - Bed Airstream don’t do things by halves, and the Interstate Nineteen is no exception.

The seats in the back of the Airstream Camper fold down to make a very tidy looking bed with no cracks or bumps that would ruin a good nights sleep.
