Maneuvering a motorhome, and especially a car with a caravan in a tight parking lot, can be a real challenge. It may or may not! Even experienced drivers can find a reversing camera a big help. Reversing cameras are becoming increasingly popular even in passenger cars. But it is when parking in a motorhome or a car with a trailer that they can be especially useful. Large dimensions, limited visibility, and in many cases also the lack of a rear view mirror in the motorhome, make it difficult to maneuver precisely.

Reversing cameras - what to pay attention to?

The sun honors us with its presence more and more often, but it cannot be concealed that we are all quite tired of the long and capricious winter. More and more often we think about reloading the battery, going far outside the city and the possibility of forgetting about work and duties. One of the options for such an "escape" from reality is a trip to Slovakia - far enough not to think about problems, and close enough that organizing the trip will not be a problem. Your destination may be the famous spa town of Piešťany situated on the D1 highway. The route leading to it is so simple that no one will have any problems with hitting it, and apart from being easy to get to, the road is exceptionally beautiful, so the trip to the spa will be as pleasant as the stay in the city itself.

Piešťany - an idea for a picnic

If you think about caravanning trips, your imagination suggests pictures of caravans and motorhomes in which the living area is permanently integrated with the seating area. However, there is also another solution - mounting an expedition container. Buying a motorhome is often deterred by the fact that such a car is often used for only a few weeks a year. So there is a dilemma as to whether to spend money to buy and maintain a vehicle that will be standing rather than driving most of the time. However, is there any alternative? It turns out that it is, although let's be honest - it is not a solution for everyone.

Expedition container? An alternative to a motorhome

Family trips are a great adventure. Spending time together and getting to know new places brings us closer and strengthens the bonds between the members. Parents show their children the world, children absorb knowledge about the area they are exploring, and everyone has a lot of fun doing it. But there is often a problem - sometimes you have to spend several long hours traveling before you get there. If we travel with teenagers, they will take their time on their own. However, if we are taking care of several-year-olds, at best, we are faced with questions: "Are we there yet?" asked every few minutes. For many parents, such a trip is a test of patience, but if planned well, it can be as enjoyable as the sightseeing itself.

Baby on board, or what to do for children while driving

"My delight was great when I saw this city and saw so many bell towers and monasteries and buildings, all on the water ..." - the description of Philippe de Commynes, a fifteenth-century French chronicler, also fits well with modern realities. Venice is beautiful, romantic, full of elegant architecture, mansions, palaces and churches. You can fall in love with it. Tourists are delighted with the view of the city from the side of Lido di Jesolo or Punta Sabbioni. You must have a camera, and it will turn out to be especially valuable during a ferry ride - the landscapes you watch are breathtaking. When visiting the city, it is worth buying ferry tickets , which also entitle you to use the Venetian water trams and buses (outside the city). The price of a 72-hour ticket is around 30 euros.

If the price does not matter to you, but the greatest comfort is what counts, we have something for you. The American Prevost H3-45 VIP is the highest level of luxury that can be imagined in a motorhome, or rather - in a tourist bus. Do you want to make a great impression on other campsite users? Bigger is hard to imagine! The Prevost H3-45 VIP has a wheelbase of 8 meters and a height of 3.8 meters. Under the flat floor there are cavernous hiding places with a capacity of more than 500 cubic meters. The independent suspension is said to provide a truly regal travel comfort. But the fact that the interior feels like a palace is of course the main advantage of equipping this huge motorhome.

Prevost - the upper limit of luxury

While traveling in the south of Italy, you may experience great dilemmas - common sense tells you to go back, but admiration does not allow it. Why not stay here one day longer? After a short thought, you can head west and walk towards the beautiful town of Reggio di Calabria . If Italy looks like a shoe to so many people on the map, then the journey to Reggio will be on the inside of the foot. But what a beautiful foot!. We noticed the beauty of Reggio di Calabria in historic Lecce . Now, driving west, we will pass several towns where the air is full of the atmosphere of a typical Italian town. There is no other way to describe it. Driving through Francavilla Fontana , one cranes one's neck to see if Sophia Loren might emerge from around one corner to - like in a scene from the film entitled "Italian style of marriage" - walk proudly and attract the attention of all men. In addition to memories of the classics of Italian cinema, the town also has several monuments, palaces and monuments. It is worth paying attention to, among others: to Porta del Carmine , the 17th-century city gates resembling a triumphal arch, or Chiesa del Rosario with its impressive dome. Looking at some of the city's monuments (and not only this one), one may get the impression that in many cases their beauty lies precisely in their domes - in the line of sight they are quite modest, without any decorations, so to admire them, you have to raise your head high or look from a distance.

Almost all campers are based on the construction of passenger cars, sometimes you can meet vehicles resembling small buses. The Liner de Luxe, however, is completely different, because its base is ... a MAN TGL truck with a 4-5 liter 220 HP engine. ... can impress not only with its external dimensions and spaciousness of the passenger area. The garage may be even more surprising. In a large motorhome, we can usually count on a storage space, which at best will fit a motorcycle. But in this respect, nothing beats the Carthago model, which can accommodate a Smart two-seater or a Fiat 500 four-seater!.

A holiday on the Italian coast, especially in summer, is something everyone should experience at least once in their life. If only to be able to feel this wonderful atmosphere every time he looks at a photo of a romantic cove, incredibly clear water or a wide beach. You will never forget waking up in the morning and looking straight into the blue of the water, blending almost imperceptibly with the blue of the sky. But to be able to admire it, it's best not to waste time and continue your journey along the coast. From Ancona we go towards Pescara , another small but very atmospheric town. It is one of the most important economic, commercial and tourist centers on the Adriatic coast. Thanks to its diversified coastline, over 20 km long, it is also a popular resort, crowded with thousands of holidaymakers in the summer. In addition, each year in July, Pescara organizes the international jazz festival Jazz Pescara . The sounds of jazz resounded here for the first time in 1969, and the event was the first Italian summer festival dedicated to jazz music. Since then, it has been one of the most important jazz festivals in Europe.

High heels - Lecce

This motorhome is not made in Germany, although you can buy it there. It is also not manufactured in Italy, although it also has a dealer there. Novano 636 is being built in Pruszków, near Warsaw. The Polish caravanning market is growing in strength, and this is happening not only due to the increased import of camping vehicles from beyond the western border, but also thanks to Polish producers. Novano 636 is a motorhome built by the Polish company Doch. The base for this vehicle is the Fiat Ducato H3L4. The customer can choose versions with four different diesel engines - 2.0 (130 HP), 2.3 (150 HP), 3.0 (180 HP) and 3.0 in a more powerful version (227 HP). The permissible total weight of the vehicle is 3.5 tonnes.

Who, who loves the warm sea, wide and sandy beaches and the sun, does not dream of getting to know the Italian coast? And it is not about a blissful holiday with a drink with a palm tree, but about intense sightseeing. What if you took a few days' trip along the famous Italian shoe? Experience the power of adventures, meet a lot of great places and enjoy the sun? The more that before you get to that shoe, you still have to drive many kilometers along its "upper". You can start your journey from the city of Trieste in northeastern Italy. It is a picturesque town with a magnificent town hall, a romantic lighthouse and the mighty Miramare Castle , standing right on the seashore, not far from the city. Trieste prides itself on its monuments, especially the pretty buildings in the old part of the city. It is really worth paying attention to it and spending more time here.

A trip to the edge of the heel - the coast of Italy

Manufacturers are outdoing each other in developing new gadgets and creating more and more sophisticated devices for recording great image quality. Recently, another one has appeared - the Phantom DJI Quadcopter Aerial Rig , a multi-rotor vertical take-off multicopter designed for aerial filming. The integrated design allows you to easily mount a GoPro or other handy camera on it. It is a neat and agile gadget that will allow us to create a smooth recording enriched with shots of hard-to-reach places (e.g. roofs of high-rise buildings) and a bird's-eye view, which so far we could only admire in professionally filmed productions of large studios. Today we can create such recordings ourselves thanks to the Phantom multicopter.
