UPDATE

WHAT IS THE PROPOSAL AND FOR WHOM?

Another edition of the autumn tour formula trip, which has been repeated for several years. It is a tourist trip, by definition, focused on getting to know the country, interesting places and local culture. It is another of the 4-wheel fixed-route trips implemented in this destination. Participants travel in a group, spending organized time under the supervision of a pilot/guide, and free time according to their own preferences, nurturing good relationships and supporting each other. The main emphasis of the organization is on the selection of places with high tourist appeal, ensuring a balance between travel time and stationary time, and creating conditions for establishing good relationships between participants, while taking care to maintain the expected privacy.

A proposal suitable for all those who dream of distant travel, but do not have the experience and time necessary to organize such a trip well. For all those who feel much more comfortable in the assistance of someone who will guide, advise, help, organize, communicate, literally - cushion and let you enjoy the time and place, let you fully relax by taking over the responsibilities of organization. 

 

WHAT IS THE PLAN IN A NUTSHELL?

The journey was divided into 3 contractual stages: 1. transit to/ towards a destination in southern Spain, 2 Destination - destination southern Spain and southern Portugal, 3. transit from/ in the return direction to Poland.

Stage 1 - set out on Saturday before noon the planned route through the Czech Republic, Austria, Italy towards the Côte d'Azur in France and on to Alicante in Spain, where we begin the actual part of the trip. Stage 1 of the transit will take us up to 5 days, during which we have planned unique attractions specific to the transit countries and places. For stage 2, tourist-appropriate, about 19 days of stationary-round trip according to the developed program, with organizational and logistic support in the places where the group is stationed (on request: organization of free time, organization of optional excursions, organization of local transportation, etc.). After less than 3 weeks of extraordinary vacation stage 3 and return, in part different from stage 1. We return on Friday, day 28 of our trip in the evening.  


WHAT IS THE FORMULA?

Participants arrive at the place of the contractual start of the event (the place indicated in the Road Book) at their own expense and organization. 

The program of the expedition takes into account the needs of tourism and recreation - the passage of the designated route and the implementation of the points of the program will be held in an organized and group formula, for which the Organizers have provided a leading person (Pilot-Group Manager) in his own camping vehicle, remaining at the disposal of the Participants throughout the duration of the expedition and for 24/7. The details of the program will be presented to the participants of the expedition in the form of a so-called "tour". ROAD BOOK with plotted important GPS points and made available a few days before the trip. 

The touring formula of caravanning expeditions involves implementation of all program points Within the stipulated timeframe, but without a detailed and tight schedule. Such a formula leaves a lot of freedom to the Participants of the trip, and to the Pilot responsible for the full implementation of the objectives, the possibility of adjusting the course of the program to the current conditions of the environment, including the needs of the Participants.

The tour program follows a proven pattern: 

  • Day trip with the caravan led by the Pilot is carried out according to the time plan and between the places indicated in the Road Book which are the planned tourist attractions and places of planned overnight camping
  • The participants of the expedition may move outside the caravan, at their own pace and follow their own itinerary only between the places of planned camping (the places of overnight camping are the checkpoints for completing the group)
  • movement of the caravan led by the Pilot between overnight camping sites shall be carried out in accordance with the principle of providing Participants with 1-2 picnic stops during the day of travel with a total duration of up to 90 minutes, as well as stops provided for tourist sites, as planned in the Road Book
  • Arrival of the caravan led by the Pilot to the overnight camping site by 7:00 pm 
  • camping/bivouacing in places planned up to a maximum of 3 days in the program of one expedition
  • leaving camping sites on the day of departure by 8:30 a.m.

The pilot-leader of the expedition is responsible for efficient organization in the group, leading the group along the designated route, subject and timely implementation of the stipulated program, communication and coordination, translation support at tourist sites. In the case of more than one group, they will move at their own pace with their own assigned pilot, and the consolidation of groups will take place in the designated places of organization of the common part (places of tourist attractions, camping places).
