“Defining our van life dream and scouring the internet for the best team to execute our plan, we luckily came across Cedric from Artivan, and it clicked!
In no time at all, we had our conversion project up and running. To say the Artivan team are people who work very closely with their clients is an understatement! They were in constant communication with us at every stage of the conversion, highlighting their expertise with factors that we hadn't even thought of. Above all, they respected our budget.
We're very proud of our Wissijimin! The Artivan team gave us more than we could have asked for! Giskuumidin' mishti! (Thank you very much in Eeyou)”

Ford Transit 4x4, 2021, HR EXT
It was on an automn day when I was going for a run that I came across the Artivan van in the streets of Montreal. I visited their website and instantly fell in love! I knew it was with this team that we would convert our Ford Transit!
Throughout the process, Cédric listened to our vision and our ideas in order to optimize the space and make our van practical and wonderful for 4 people.
The day of the unveiling was a real magical moment where we were able to meet the wonderful team of Artivan and see how much everyone put their heart and passion into this project. Artivan takes care of the technical aspects, the detail and the finish. The space the team has created for us reflects who we are and meets all of our needs. Our dream has come true thanks to Artivan and this project will lead us to lots of great family adventures!

We chose Artivan for the good vibe we felt with Cédric, the fact that the projects are 100% personalized and the competitive price.
Our experience was very good, we were delivered a high quality van. The team is very meticulous, and we feel that they put a lot of heart into our project.
The service is really personalized and it really gave us the feeling of being part of the project. They showed a lot of flexibility, collaboration and listened to all our needs.
We have already done a few miles with Yakivan either for snowboarding, cycling or visiting microbreweries and we are delighted! We are leaving for West America this summer on vacation/work and we have everything we need to have the best summer thanks to Artivan!

Cédric helped us with the transformation of our Ford Transit and we are very satisfied! We had the same goal: to create a camper van; he would be the creator, we would be his first customers. It was the beginning of a creative and engaging adventure. It was very pleasant to work with him, he listened to our needs and desires (everything is “custom” with him). Moreover, he brings many suggestions that come from his own experience with van life.
Cédric is proactive in finding solutions to the various challenges that arise and, believe us, there are always some!
He is meticulous in his work, likes to learn about the different possible avenues and he is very available with his time.
If we had another van to convert, we would certainly do business with him, period. But, unfortunately for him, we are very satisfied with the one we have! We would recommend his services without hesitation. He will know how to make your project a unique and authentic experience.

Very pleasant experience, we were involved at all stages and that's what we wanted.Frankly, the van is texting what we wanted, everything works A+. Thank you for agreeing to take our Pepito with one month's notice to fit with our obligations and for agreeing to take it back several times to accommodate us. It meets our needs exactly and we feel very good there. Nice job ;)
We really appreciated the fact that Cédric is an outdoor enthusiast and that he didn't get scared when we told him that we needed space for a stroller, 4 bikes and as many skis.
We also felt that it was important to him to make a pleasant and baby-friendly van for our little Juju. Again, we felt that he received our ideas and comments well.
