If you are going to travel to Germany and intend to enter Berlin or any other big city, you will need an eco-vignette. Soon, the vignette will also apply in the Czech capital. People traveling around Europe, even sporadically, usually came across the information that there is a green zone in Berlin, which can only be entered by cars that meet certain exhaust emission standards. Legal entry requires a valid vignette, i.e. a sticker stuck on the windshield of the car. However, not everyone knows that the vignette is already valid in over 50 German cities. So if you intend to drive through the center of a large city or agglomeration in Germany, you can almost be sure that you will face the obligation to have a vignette.

Travelers go to Croatia mainly to the Adriatic Sea. However, not every stretch of the country's coast is the same. You can go to Croatia every year and every vacation will be different. You can go to one of the islands - for example the half desert Pag. You can visit the historic and monumental Dubrovnik, beyond the walls of which elements of Muslim culture have already entered. You can finally visit peaceful Istria . Although Istria is called the largest peninsula in Croatia, parts of this cape also belong to Slovenia and Italy. What will draw our attention after crossing the imaginary border of this part of the land is ubiquitous and lush green. Istria is often nicknamed "green". This is because almost the entire peninsula is covered with oak forests.

Prague is an amazing city that is worth visiting not only because it is close and all friends have already been there. Amazing views, irresistible charm and unique atmosphere are the features that should attract you here. To be able to soak up the atmosphere of this place, put your motorhome on a camping site and set off into the city ... by bike!. Prague and the bicycle are almost synonymous. Moving around the city by this means of transport gives not only convenience, but also freedom in choosing the place and time in which we will get to it. It is popular not only with locals, but also with tourists who prefer to travel healthily and comfortably rather than wallowing in the crowds of the metro. If you are planning a weekend getaway or a longer sightseeing trip, it is worth booking a place at the Sokol Praha campground, where your motorhome will be safe, and in the evening, after the tour, you will rest by the pool or sipping delicious Czech beer on a sunbed. To find out more about a campsite in Prague visit its profile in the campsite list. Due to the fact that the campsite is located within the city limits, you can get on your bike here and, riding between stylish tenement houses, start exploring this beautiful city.

What to take with you to the beach? It can be a blanket, an inflatable mattress, a surfboard and a Fiat 500L. But the latter must be in the beach version!. Unfortunately, the implementation of this plan will not be easy, as for now Fiat declares that the beach Fiat 500L is only a concept vehicle, prepared especially for the Vans US Open of Surfing surfing event. To see this car, you'd have to go to Huntington Beach soon, because the championship will end soon. Well, unless Fiat changes its mind and after the warm reception of this car by viewers and the media from around the world decides that the concept car is worth developing into a commercial form.

It is hard to imagine a caravanner who blithely goes on the road without securing their luggage beforehand. Already after the first trip, he would have found out that this was at least an unwise move. Badly fastened luggage not only requires cleaning up afterwards - it is also very dangerous. Regardless of whether we are going on vacation by car, camper or taking a trailer with us, we must secure both the luggage inside the vehicle and the luggage mounted on the roof before the trip. When it comes to the interior of the motorhome, an alcove is most often used as an additional luggage compartment. You can quickly stuff larger items such as a table or chairs in it. However, it should be borne in mind that improper (not very careful) fastening of such luggage may not only risk damaging the alcove with its windows, but also be dangerous for travel companions.

For automotive fans, Cordoba is the name of a car, and for architecture lovers, it is a Spanish resort with dozens of temples and mansions with beautiful gardens. The city of the largest mosque on the Iberian Peninsula invites everyone who loves the atmosphere of Andalusia. In the past, the capital of the Moorish state and Roman Spain, today Cordoba is a relatively small city. It is a real tourist pearl of Andalusia, although at first it may seem like a small provincial town, where life focuses around the main square and stops in narrow streets. And it must be admitted that the main square of the resort is decorated with a huge attraction that the entire province boasts - the Grand Mosque. Impressive in terms of size and number of decorations, the building known as La Mezquita is the most impressive mosque that has been built by the Arabs on the Iberian Peninsula.

Maneuvering a caravan while parking can be very troublesome, especially when there is little space left. In some situations, it would be best to make the trailer drive itself into the garage or park itself in the right place on the camping site... So far, no trailer will position itself completely on its own, but maneuvering the vehicle using a remote control also sounds interesting. There are systems, commonly called "movers", that allow a person standing next to the trailer to steer it by pressing appropriate buttons.

What are the safest hours to sunbathe? What to use? Every year, during the summer holidays, many people ask this type of question. And every year, many of them make basic mistakes, which results in sore, burned skin. Summer is in full swing and the sun tans our skin, changing its shade to a more or less intense brown. A lot has been written about the advantages and disadvantages of a tan, so we will not repeat it. But what if someone has definitely exaggerated and instead of temptingly golden skin has painful redness and blisters?.

Do you feel a breath of fresh air? Here are new motorhomes that will not be available for sale until 2015. Let's check what we can expect from refreshed products from popular manufacturers. Hobby fills the gaps in its offer. In a separate article, we described the Vantana model, which will be the cheapest proposition of this brand.

The car is to be available in four lengths : 599 cm, 673 cm, 698.4 cm and 738 cm, so everyone should find something for themselves.

A precious gem shimmers in the sun at the foot of the Alps. It is a lake famous for its purity, situated next to the town straight from postcards. The sage blooms in the stone pots, and the geraniums are pink on the black balustrades. Annecy is colorful and cheerful, with music and bustle in summer. Some lakes are famous for their impressive size, others - for their depth or a large population of a rare species living in them. The French lake of Annecy owes its fame to something else, namely the incredible purity of the water. It is considered to be one of the cleanest water reservoirs in Europe.
