Plan your Van Tour

What's the Van Tour 2010 about and how do I plan my Van Tour Europe?
 
Van Tour is just another word for a trip in a van around Europe. Where you go, when and for how
long is your own and your friends decision. You go at your pace, with friends or people you met to
places you have chosen for you. You might go to The Bulls in Pamblona and to Munich Octoberfest
but if crowds over crowds in not your thing, there is beautiful quiet nature all around and never
forget:

“The journey is the reward.” 
Take time to discover some beautiful parts of Europe, attend some nice festivals, meet nice people
on your way around. We have listed some good sites for you to get your Van Tour 2010 planned.
 
Where to go?
Find a list on European festivals, a route planner with interesting touristic information on Europe to get a
first rough tour plan, a planner for bike and hiking trips in Europe as well as excellent information
on the German country.

How to come to Europe?
To book your flights to and within Europe first check out your local agent and the Internet. Often
it's important to book early to get the flight you want and to avoid rising prices. Also check the
directions to our place before you book flights todecide where to fly to.

 
How much will it cost?

Fuel and toll:
Diesel is between 1€ per l in Rumania and 1,45€ in the Netherlands. In a small van, count around
9l/100km, in a big motor home around 12l.
Some countries charge motorway tolls like i.e. France and Spain, others have some vignettes to put on your windscreen. But as you go on your pace you might be able to avoid those toll roads.

Living costs:
They vary a lot between countries. Food in Rumania will be a lot cheaper than in France or Spain, so
it depends on how long you stay in some of the countries. But as you save on accommodation,
train-, and bus tickets..
For discount on entrance cards take an international student card along if you have.
 
Camping costs:
On a camp site count 15-20€ a night for a van and 2 people. There are lots of places where you can
stay with a motor home for a low fee or even for free. Ask us for adress books and discount cards to
save on your budget!
