The Ultimate Trip Planning Guide
your choice - your freedom
We all dream of that epic travelling adventure!
The thought is invigorating, whether seeing our home country or visiting exotic lands.
Add to this the thought of a Road Trip, and the excitement meter rises.
The problem is that we resign ourselves to the impossibility of it all, with cost implications and trip planning, instead of embracing the possibility of it happening despite the hurdles. The first step is not to wait for a trip opportunity to appear but rather start your trip planning now and move towards the possibility.
Our family has been blessed with many amazing trips, during which we have learned many lessons. We want to help you fulfil your travel dreams for your first trip or your next one. We want to help you with everything from your initial choices to trip planning to trip execution and everything in between.
Our experience, other than travelling extensively in our home country, is mostly travelling around Europe. Although we have a Europe trip planning focus, all the lessons we learned can easily be applied anywhere else. Our experience speaks for itself.
Our Experience
We live in South Africa and have completed 8 road trips to Europe.
We have spent over 205 days touring through Europe,
we have been to 24 different Countries across Europe,
we have seen 320 Different Places in these Countries,
while travelling over 43 000 km,
and have taken 65 700 pictures
First Things to Consider
Anything is possible, from the bucket list of iconic places you have dreamed of to the many incredible places in between. The choice is yours, and with it comes a sense of freedom and control over your adventure.
How you get around and where you say impacts cost, comfort and convenience. There are different trip planning options that can be mixed and matched. Flexibility is a vital resource that is invaluable.
The time of year does make a difference in various areas. It has a significant influence on pricing, the freedom to go where you desire and the options that will be available.
Best Way To Go
The ability to adjust a trip when confronted by real-world unplanned circumstances is valuable. Of all the ‘How To?’ options, the motorhome is The Sweet Spot for freedom. It allows trip planning to be fluid and unchained!
The motorhome is the most convenient option. It is our preference, particularly after experiencing its flexibility and convenience. It is The Sweet Spot of travelling, and we would not do it any other way!
When it comes to maximising the cost of a trip and gaining as many experiences as possible within the same time period, the motorhome is king. You could do it cheaper but can not do it more cost-effectively.
The Game Changer
Travel and accommodation are sorted. Great! But what about getting between sights? Walking and public transport are costly, very slow, and exhausting. Is there a better way?
This could be a solution, but it raises some questions. What is the best approach? Are there other benefits? How can we get the most out of it?
Adventure Phases
Planning a trip can seem daunting, but it’s an essential part of the adventure. We are here to help you with everything you need, so buckle up – the adventure begins here.
The Execution Phase
While the planning is progressing, we need to discuss things to consider and take action before departure and also the week before the flight.
The Adventure Phase
At last, it’s boarding time, but there is still a lot to think about and do. We will give you all we have learned to help make this the most amazing adventure ever.
Our Story
Our first travel adventure to Europe resulted from a bit of fortune and some out-of-the-box thinking.
We discovered the most convenient way to travel through Europe seeing as much as possible with comfort and freedom.
