2024 Travel Plans

[BeeBee]

Let’s hear lots of travel plans for this Spring and coming Summer. We always pick up great ideas from this forum.
Our van goes in next week for an MOT and service and thereafter ‘ready for adventures’.
Tavish always has his bag ‘ready to roll’

12th May, overnight ferry from Harwich to Hook of Holland. Turn L and head North to Norway. Hope to visit Lysebotn and Trollstigen. Couldn't get there last year due to roads closed due to snow and a landslide, but I travelled earlier then.

In our scheme of things that’s a pretty adventurous trip, but it doesn’t surprise me as in our household you are known as the ‘go to guy’… right at the outset when we first got our van ( 5 years now) you helped with our ‘newbie’ issues…how to fit the floor Anchor, the spare wheel Safeguard.
Have a great trip.

We're thinking about the Loire Valley...... did it in late Autumn 11 years ago so quite fancy visiting in the Spring

Or Maybe La Rochelle and Ile de Re?

 

[Lequimper]

Few local 2 nighters to try things out then two weeks in Brittany in July followed by Edinburgh for the festival in August.

Sailing to Bilbao end of May returning from Santander middle of July. 7 weeks to go around Spain and Portugal in some format! Or just Spain. Or Spain and France.

If you like BIG views and mountains the Pyrenees from West to East is a blast....hopping between Spain and France every week

 

[KevH]

Netherlands next week, Scottish tour in June followed by Norfolk and Suffolk, then a tour of Netherlands, Germany, Luxembourg and Belgium in September. Various one/two nighters in between. Oh, Somerset with the grandkids in August.
All very different types of holiday, which is why I love this van.

 

[Carryon Cali Camping]

Old Oaks, Glastonbury in May for a week, Camper Jam in July, Thorning Farm, Pembrokeshire in September for a week with Busfest on the way home!! Hope to get a couple of weekenders in between, pending work commitments!

That’s a fair drive from your part of the world. We’re off to Ireland in June, same ferry crossing, but not far from Southside Glasgow.

‘a van with a plan’ , like it.

Yep should be quite a trip, looking forward to it. We went to Orkney last year but that was a hire van so this will be the vans 1st tour. Some local shakedown trips in the meantime.
