While many motorhome manufacturers still offer the choice between two or three body colors, the Slovenian company distinguished itself in the simplest way possible - with a total of 10 different paint finishes for customers to choose from. The rest is pretty much standard - but a good standard. Bravia Mobil is a little known manufacturer of motorhomes, which creates its motorhomes on the basis of the Peugeot Boxer . The brand was founded in 2005, and its roots are not related to the automotive industry, but to the production of furniture. The Vidmar company has been producing furniture for over 30 years, and the search for new expansion opportunities prompted the owners to use their furniture know-how also in the bodies of tourist vehicles.

The huge demand for motorhomes, especially motorhomes, which we are currently dealing with in Europe (especially in Germany) has caused new producers to enter the game. Womondo is a new brand that wants to build extraordinary touring vehicles - so far based on the Opel Movano. The "new" in the industry has to somehow stand out. At a time when most motorhomes are based on the Fiat Ducato , choosing the Opel Movano will surely be an eye-catching move. However, what is supposed to be the most important feature associated with Womondo is the possibility of preparing a "tailor-made" car, which in this case means 10,000 available configurations! The customer can determine the color of the motorhome himself, choose upholstery and determine the equipment of the vehicle. Configuration can be done directly on the Womondo.net website.

Navarre is located at the junction of France and Spain, in the western Pyrenees. It is a region that covers part of the historic Basque Country, and its capital is Pamplona, a city on three rivers. What is it famous for? Of all the encierros in Spain, Pamplona is the most famous one. In addition, the city is close to the hearts of the faithful who wander the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, as well as fans of Ernest Hemingway's prose. Navarre is a good destination for motorized tourists, as its location gives you the opportunity to get to know the attractions of two countries. It is easier to travel to several French cities than to Madrid. For example, Bayonne is only 111 km from the provincial capital, Pamplona. Also, those who spend their holidays in France can quickly cross the border and indulge in the charm of the Spanish siesta. Another thing is that some people will not even reach the hot south, because they will charm their coast by San Sebastián, known as the "pearl of the North". And what does Navarre offer to tourists? The possibility of contact with nature, calm down and observing the fauna. Where? For example, in Foz de Lumbier , a canyon where you can relax listening to the sounds of birds, the sound of the water and the silence. Only man and nature. It is also worth going to Olite, a small city full of monuments, and to Estella - especially if someone likes mountain hiking. And the already mentioned Pamplona, one of the most important points on the way of St. James? Tourists associate them mainly with encierros, bull chases held in July, during the sanfermines holiday. They are attended by men who want to find out if they are as masculine as they think. More than one, in addition to torn pants, brought a badly damaged ego from Pamplona.

Can you take… a trailer with you for a bike ride? Yes, of course! The trailer by Wide Path Camper is small, light and can be easily pulled by a bicycle. This caravan is so small that in terms of comfort and equipment it will not compete with any full-size caravan. However, it has other advantages, and those who like to take long bicycle trips will appreciate them. It is certainly more comfortable to travel without such ballast than with it, but how else can you take a place to sleep with you? If we are going to go camping by bike, then we also have to put the luggage and the tent somewhere, so still - even a small trailer could be useful.

In the recent past, Dieppe had the role of the scene on which the failed Operation Jubilee took place. The Allied test landing was a fiasco, the attackers suffered heavy losses and were forced to flee. Traces of WWII events still lie on the coast, but the city does not live only in the past. Dieppe continues the tradition of the fishing town, and besides, it offers numerous attractions for tourists. Each year they attract not only Parisians, but also holidaymakers from other countries. Dieppe is a charming city located practically on the cliffs above the English Channel. Due to the fact that it is the seaside resort closest to Paris, it is very popular among the inhabitants of the French capital. From one city to the other, it takes about 2.5 hours by car, and there are regular trains between them. Dieppe is also a port (one of the busiest in Normandy), from which the ferry leaves for Newhaven. Course prices start at £ 78 per car and 2 adults (one way). With the ferry you can easily get to Brittany, as well as central and western France. And what will we visit in Dieppe itself? The city's many attractions attract tourists spending their holidays in Normandy . They are tempted by the beach surrounded by cliffs, which has already delighted 19th-century painters, including Gauguin and Monet. The local cuisine based on fish and seafood is also a big lure. Gourmets should definitely visit Dieppe in November when the Herring Festival takes place. In addition to food for the body, the resort offers food for the spirit. In the heart of Dieppe is the Villa Perrotte, an art gallery, and the 15th-century fortress, Château de Dieppe, towers over the city. Today it is a museum with an ivory collection, paintings by painters such as Renoir and Boudin, and sculptures by local fishermen. While visiting Dieppe , we will repeatedly see evidence of the durability and strength of the city's relationship with Canada.

The first superstructure, or actually a camping extension, was made by Josef Tischer in 1973 , by mounting it to the Volkswagen Golf . More than 40 years later, the company, led by Peter, the son of the founder, produces nearly 200 annual bodies and collects awards, incl. for the strength and tightness of the body. What is behind the success of the Tischer brand? At the time when the first buildings of this type were built, they were a great alternative to caravans - more expensive, heavier and more difficult to maneuver. Today, however, the buildings of the German company are still selling well, despite the strong competition in the form of motorhomes.
