We have 2 or 3 weeks off just after the schools go back in September and we are tempted to take our first trip in the van off UK soil - the Dolomites are our preferred destination but haven't done anything like this before - so this place seems a good resource of useful know how to pillage. We...

Hi everyone! I’m based in Norwich, UK, and in Trentino, Italy. We’ve 2 x T6 Caravelle 204 DSG 4Motion. One family wagon for UK school runs, and one that has a more interesting life for adventures in the mountains in Italy & Austria! The mountain van is currently a standard 2018 T6 Caravelle...

Hi, I’m doing a quick return dash trip to a place called Roverto in northern Italy at the top of Lake Garda. Driving from Calais and emphasis on quickest route rather than most scenic. Planning on spending one night at an aire (or equivalent if they exist in other countries) on way there then a...

Good morning, We are planning a family (2 adults and 2 children) trip in the new T6 to Italy in the summer and looking for some recommendations for campsites to stop in the following locations for overnight stopovers. Disneyland Paris Offenburg/rust/Black forest Bolonga Grindelwald Reims...

Afternoon all, Does anyone have any experience of doing the Amalfi coast in a campervan? I've heard some mixed reports, we've driven down to Italy before around the lakes and also Ca savio near Venice but heard the Amalfi might not be one for campervans - more a flight and public transport...

Hi All, we're heading off to France in a couple weeks to drive down to Italy - Autohaus T6 Campervan with Transporter HQ aftermarket headlights with their LED bulbs. Will likely use Mont Blanc tunnel route so need to be sure where not dazzling oncoming traffic - does anyone know how to work...

Hi, We're planning a little break later this year - late July/early August time. We'll be travelling with our two dogs (a lab and golden retriever) and were looking at doing the Eurotunnel then some campsites in France, Germany and Italy. Would like to do Switzerland but seems like we'd need...

It looks like we will have some time free for a longer campervan trip in early October. We want to go to Scotland, but I suspect it could be a bit fresh up there doing something like the NC500. We have friends in the South of France, so could drop down there, then move on to Spain and Portugal...

I’m roughly planning a 4 -5 week trip for September / October 2019 and would like to hear about personal experiences of wild camping in Switzerland, Austria and Northern Italy, preferably in the Alps and Dolomites. We would be looking to be as unobtrusive as possible; no furniture, awning or...

I am looking at driving my fantastic new t6 to Italy this winter and have started looking at snow chains or winter tyres. I have 275 40 20" and lowered so fitting chains i think will be a challenge and on initial search they are expensive. All help greatly appreciated

Its our first time driving through France this year and we are looking for advice. From the eurotunnel to the south of France google maps has the fastest route going through Paris. I imagine this is a bad idea so maybe take a longer route down. We are heading to Luchon for le tour and heading...

Here she is. My caravelle executive 150 DSG. Done 2000 miles so far and loving it. I've come from a 2008 2.5 kombi which was pretty agricultural in comparison! It pulls like a train and is very smooth with it. I've swapped the step light bulbs and boot bulbs for LEDs. I also covered the back of...

Hallo to all. I live in Italy. I am waiting my new caravelle T6. This is my second velle. Enjoying reading through your site Stefano
