Go Motorhoming and Campervanning is the most comprehensive book available on the subject of motorhoming. It will tell you everything you need to know before you go and will act as a handy reference guide during your journey. Whether you're a novice or old hand, don't Go Motorhoming without this book.

 

Seven detailed chapters, discuss everything from what questions to ask before you buy to how to stay warm in the winter. Chapter by chapter your knowledge will build, and everything you need to know is fully explained; not just how things work, but also what that means to you. Real life examples clarify the point and colour pictures show you exactly what to look for. The authors have written mental challenges for you so that you can work out exactly what you want from a motorhome.

 

Campervanners might not consider themselves as motorhomers, but the reality is they drive similar vehicles only a different size. This is important because motorhome and campervan users have the opportunity to do so much more than pitch at campsites. For example, they can use Motorhome Stopovers called Aires in France, Belgium, and Luxembourg or Stellplatze in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. Motorhome Stopovers, also called Camper Stops, are dedicated overnight parking areas where you can park and sleep overnight in your motorhomes and campervans. These Motorhome Stopovers are sometimes incorrectly referred to as wild camping spots or free camping spots. Go Motorhoming and Campervanning completely explains the ins and outs of free offsite parking and campsites.

 

This is the third edition of this excellent motorhome book. The current edition was thoroughly edited and updated for 2015, then reprinted with amendments for 2017. The first edition, named Go Motorhoming Europe (ISBN 9780955280801), was written by Chris Doree and Meli George and was published in 2006 by Vicarious Books LLP. This book was dubbed 'the bible of motorhoming' and received excellent magazine reviews. Chris and Meli extensively rewrote the second edition during 2011 for release in 2012, when the book was renamed Go Motorhoming and Campervanning (ISBN 9780956678119).
