FLY or DRIVE a VW CALIFORNIA Campervan to the ALPS - Which is CHEAPER ? Driving our VW CALIFORNIA Campervan or flying ?
We drive to the ALPS in our VW California Campervan, our friends travel by plane. How do the cost's compare...as we travel to Bourg Saint Maurice in the French Alps?

We drove our VW california Campervan 750 miles from the UK to the French Alps, where spent a week skiing at Les Arcs and staying in a log cabin at Camping Huttopia Bourg Saint Maurice.
Our trip in our VW california campervan took around 10 hours driving one we had taken Le Shuttle through the Eurotunnel. We drove on the French Autoroutes and used our Emovis toll tag to make quick progress down through France.

Travelling by Campervan is great, but would it be any cheaper than travelling by plane. Our friends who came with us on our trip opted to travel by plane and flew from the UK to Geneva and then hired a car, would that work out cheaper or more expensive ?

The cost difference was significant, over £1000 cheaper to drive, enough to cover the cost of our Huttopia accommodation for the week or our ski passes...so in our book travelling down in our VW California Campervan was a no brainer, but it needs some planning to be able to maximise departure times and lenght of journey to make it worthwhile.

So Who are Campervan Journey?

We are JT, Harry, Claire, Sam and Ben, oh and Hunny the Dog. We discovered campervanning in 2015 when we bought our first Volkswagen T5 Combo after seeing many at our favourite campsites. We were staying with our tent, and dreaming that one day we would have our own Campervan. After much research, we bought and converted our own T5 Kombi to suit our requirements, check out the video on the channel. We soon discovered that owning a Campervan is a way of life and it is not just about amazing trips round Europe, it’s as much about great days out and family time…

We have been lucky enough to visit some amazing places with our van, many of which we know we wouldn’t have seen if we had not owned it. They instil a sense of adventure and where shall we go into your life.

After 3 years with the T5, we upgraded to a Volkswagen T6 California Beach, our current van, and we continue to enjoy travelling and visiting some amazing places. You can check out our latest videos and adventures here on the channel !

Please hit SUBSCRIBE! if this is your thing ! We try to make videos to share the good and bad of where we have been and some tips and tricks that we have learnt along the way, as well as reviews of some of the things we have bought to use whilst camping and places we have visited and stayed.
