Across the Pyrenees

1. Winding curves through the Pyrenees

From green and lush to rugged and rocky, you will see it all as you travel through the Pyrenees in your motorhome. Perfect for motorhomers who love nature and walking. Whether it's long or short walks, you will find plenty of trails here.

Typically British

2. You can't get more British than that!

Do you love gardens, pretty cottages and castles? Then this is the region for you. Explore England by motorhome and marvel at the beauty of Wales and central England. Step back in time in a National Trust castle, visit a big city like Liverpool with its many museums or the famous Cambridge. To complete the experience, enjoy afternoon tea with scones, sandwiches and delicious tea in a 'tea room'.

Greece by land

3. Soak up culture and relax on the beach

Forget Kos, Samos, Zakynthos and all the other famous islands. Go on an adventure and explore mainland Greece, where the weather is (almost) always nice. Visit the many antiquities of the Peloponnese and try to imagine what it all looked like. Visit the excavations of Olympia, ancient Corinth, the Acropolis of Athens and the springs of Thermopilae. The coastline of mainland Greece is vast and you will find cosy terraces everywhere. The perfect combination of culture, sun, sea and beach!

From the Basque Country to the Algarve

4. Perhaps the most beautiful sunsets in Europe

Along the coast or inland? It doesn't really matter, because wherever you go, the scenery changes. One thing remains the same: it is beautiful. Discover Basque cuisine and enjoy the rugged nature of northern Spain. Then head south to Portugal and be amazed by the hospitality of its people. From authentic Portuguese villages and towns to a coastline in the Algarve that will blow your mind. Tall cliffs, deep orange sand and dazzling sunsets.

From city to beach

5. Endless beaches and artistic cities

Not a fan of the super-hot summer, but fancy a trip to the beach? Head a little further north and discover Denmark by motorhome. In North Jutland you will find long, wide sandy beaches where you can watch seals and, of course, take a dip in the sea. But as well as beaches, there are also charming towns to visit, such as the artists' town of Skagen, the oldest town Ribe or Viborg. And for the youngest motorhomers among us, a visit to Legoland is a must.

Island hopping in the Wadden Sea

6. Be amazed by the diversity of the North of the Netherlands

There is plenty to see and do in the Netherlands. In fact, it's the perfect country to explore by motorhome. Explore the northern Netherlands and the Wadden Islands, jumping from one island to the next. On the largest Wadden Island, Texel, you will find the 'desert' of the Netherlands, a must see! Explore the old fortified town of Bourtange, visit the lighthouse on Ameland and make candles in Eenrum. There are many museums to visit in the region and, of course, miles of sandy beaches to enjoy.

From Rome to Sicily

7. Bella Italia and its wonderful culture

Combine Italy's rich history and culture with its wonderful climate and, of course, its great food. Discover the traces that many different peoples have left in the country. You will see that these peoples have had a great influence on the Italy of today. Visit the classics such as the Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain and St Peter's Basilica in Rome and enjoy the lush nature of Sicily. But the lava island is also incredibly rich in culture. And if you dare, you can climb Mount Etna, the volcano!

Norwegian West Coast and Lofoten Islands

8. For an adventure trip in rugged nature

For lovers of rugged nature with fjords, white sandy beaches and endless summer nights. Travel beyond the Arctic Circle where it barely gets dark in the summer and barely gets light in the winter. Norway's nature is jaw dropping. Visit the cities of Kristiansand, Bergen and Trondheim, go on a whale safari or search for Norway's famous parrot, the puffin. Did you know that Lofoten is also known as the Norwegian Maldives?
