European travel
There's nothing more exciting than travelling freely around Europe and experiencing the many different sights, sounds, tastes and cultures that it has to offer. It can prove to be the holiday experience of a lifetime.
There are certain regulations that vehicles and drivers are required to meet in Europe. It is your responsibility to check that you are fully conversant with driving laws that can vary from country to country. We have available at a modest cost a comprehensive EU Travel Pack which includes:
- Comprehensive insurance
- European breakdown recovery
- Headlight deflectors
- Spare light bulbs and fuses
- European maps
- Warning triangle
- High visibility jacket
- First aid kit
If you plan to go in the skiing season snow chains are compulsory in most resorts so we offer them for hire, along with a lockable ski rack if you need it (see Prices).
Motorhome holidays are extremely popular in many European countries so you will find that there are plenty of sites and special locations dedicated to overnight halts for motorcaravans. Also many towns and resorts have dedicated motorhome parking areas for day time visitors and they are usually well signposted.
Documents
Whatever you do these days there's always paperwork needed but it's not too complicated. Just be sure to bring:
FOR THE UK AND EUROPE
- A full, original driving licence for each driver (not a copy) including the paper counterpart
- An E111 European medical healthcare card (available from the Post Office) is recommended
