Leaving South of France heading for Croatia - returning to Kent - Any help, info and advice please.
Hi,
I appreciate that this is a massive ask, but having toured primarily France, Portugal and Spain for a number of years, we are now hoping to plan (very loosely) a route taking in a complete change of countries and scenery that we have zero knowledge of (Italy, Croatia, Germany, etc are complete unknowns to us that we'd love to visit).
It will all be dependent on how the world looks over the coming months, but could I ask for any help, advice and tips based as if the world was something like normal and that there are no 90 days in 180 restrictions.
The only given that we have, is that we need to be back in the UK for mid October, and we can get towards a start point from St Tropez area, at anytime really that gives us the best option to make the most out of the trip (but initially thinking of a start point of June/July, but this is mega flexible).
How long would you suggest as a good timescale to make the most of the route?
What routes and stops would you recommend? (It doesn't have to be the most direct, just a route that will give us the most enjoyment).
We love touristy places, lakes, rivers, beaches, bars, cafes, etc, and are equally as happy with 1 day stopovers as we are with bedding down for weeks at a time.
As it's all new, we would like to see as much of each place as possible to give us ammo for future outings.
We prefer Aire type stops, but wild spots and campsites, etc are fine also. But I'm not a fan (at all to be honest) of mountain roads. Also, we are 8.5m in length.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
