It’s clear when it comes to campers, there’s a world of choice almost as vast as there is for cars altogether.

At one end of the spectrum you might have something like a rooftop tent for your ute or SUV, setting you back a few thousand dollars, and at the other you have something like this: the Trakka Akuna.

A completely self-contained camper, this latest innovation by the Australian campervan specialist resides on a relatively compact mid-wheelbase VW Crafter base.

So, maybe you’ve found this review at the beginning of your search for the right camper, maybe you’re specifically looking for something as purpose-built as this, either way, I took it for a weekend away to use all of its features and find out what it’s like to hopefully help you decide if it’s right for you.
