I can’t quite BELIEVE this! - European Motorhome Tour Episode 6

Ok so I finally get it! Motorhoming in Europe is sooooooo easy compared to the UK!
Me and Pete hit the road leaving Belgium behind making our way into France and there are so many places to stop, park, get water and empty the tanks, we can’t quite believe how easy it easy is.
We find some amazing places to including the best park up I’ve ever stopped in!

[@vivien408]

See you Darren on TV tonight 🔜 📺 ❤👍 can't wait twice in one day ! "Yes" !

[@micro_adVANtures]

Wow that stinky motorhome has been there a really lo g Time. I saw it in the northerners on tour video many many months ago - are we sure someone hasn’t met their demise in there?

[@trishamy6512]

That's what I was thinking even scrolled down for the comment you'd think the local police would notice it and check even if other van people ignore it😳

[@carolynhaywood7701]

If only we could have these in Britain. I watched you on tv, very good program.

[@lyncheeseman]

Love watching your videos, you tell it how it is… plus your sense of humour.. great trip.

[@olliebodman9771]

Saw you on channel 5 tonight I guessed it be the blow out You were the best celebrity on it mate

[@bettyourcampervan]

Another ace video Daz 👍👍

[@matthewwall3319]

Oooo hello Mr tv star lol you on channel 5 right now. When motorhoming goes horribly wrong lol

[@gazsandall3421]

Love it Daz! Borrowing my brothers motorhome this weekend for the first time. Only going an hour or so down the road and just 3 nights but can't wait! Something I've wanted to try for a long time 😎

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Have fun!

[@diannemarshall7473]

Yet another fantastic vlog. So funny 🤣. And yes it is a pulpit where the vicar preaches to the congregation.

[@RoamingRaine]

Great video Daz,…. Uk need the services that Europe provide campers/Motorhomers. And as you said even if they charge a few pounds (as uk wouldn’t do it for free). Looking forward to see you on TV tonight 😊

[@diannemarshall7473]

This country needs to take a leaf out of Europes book and sort some decent stopovers for us respectful campers who leave no trace. Keep enjoying your European trip buddy. Love your content 👍👏👏👏

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Yeah it would be amazing if we had a motorhome and campervan network like they do over there! But they do have a lot more space than us 😆 cheers for watching mate

[@Scud_and_thesTig]

You captured my joy exactly at finding it so easy to drive and parkup in France. It makes it such a pleasant experience and takes any anxiety out of finding parking whether you’ve hit your journey’s end or need to pull over earlier. Great video 👍💙❤️

[@davidjamesmoody922]

Would have loved to have seen Pete's House

[@davep1499]

Another great vid Daz, love the longer version 👍👍

By the river ! Happy day's get the rods out

It's on the menu as Recette originale. Find yourself great lunches at town restaurants. Around €15 for the plat de jour 3 courses 😉

[@UHfishingshane]

Living the dream mate !!!

[@ajandthebs]

Really enjoyed this Vlog Daz. Awesome park ups! Your enthusiasm is contagious. Why can’t the UK embrace more Aire’s, what is the problem, surely this will increase tourism in the uk and help the economy.

[@stum8374]

If the uk have Aires they will be abused,overstaying, rubbish,hight limits and travellers....the councils take months to get them to court !!!!

[@ThisWontEndWell]

That last park up is like the Dunstable Downs, the two areas should be twinned they have the same flat view for miles and miles.

[@Mevi]

I used to go to Dunstable Downs and watch the gliders. Terrible place to have a picnic as the blanket, food and drink becomes airborne with the wind. 😂

[@Travelling_Noodles]

Their are so many amazing Parkups in Europe, the uk is So far Behind is crazy..Now you've Crossed the water there's no looking back 🙂

[@MrDubery]

That TV program you said you were on Daz, was it, 'million pound motorhomes?'. X

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Na the program just before it “when motorhoming goes horribly wrong” should be available on 5 catch up

[@kevohagn6920]

Loved the slowmo intro out the drivers window on ch5 dazza 👀🙌

[@brumsgrub8633]

Hello, love watching your channel mate. When i did this in the 90s i found i just didn't stop moving from town to town, i know you've got videos to make so it makes it difficult, but don't think you gotta keep moving, it saves on fuel wear and tear on vehicle and you get to know all the towns really well. Second bit of advice, get to some cheap countries, north Africa was amazing and still is. Turkey in remote parts also. Keep on doing your travels mate. Love it

[@bomax1066]

Great trip. Your drone footage is getting much better (look out John 😮) love your new van.

I totally agree you can do these airs in uk !! But one question what’s to stop the travellers moving in & wrecking it 😮 just asking cheers Daz great video

Alright Daggs. I’m Downunder. How am I gunna see you on TV? I’ve got Surfshark and can pretend I’m in England, but how do I see English TV from OZ? Kind regards, Stu

The roads are so much better in France, hardly any traffic and less stressful motoring. ❤ . What app you using for all these great park ups? Keep up the great work !

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Yeah, it is deffo easier isn't it! I use Park4Nnight mate 👍🏻

[@redmoon8217]

Great video, you look like yers are having such a good time. As any good Catholic or even an ex one like me will know Pete was right with the wooden construction being a pulpit. It comes from the latin, pulpitum meaning platform or staging. He wasn't so good with consecration, which means when something usually a church or ground is made holy or sacred. But a still love Daz and Pete's history lessons. 😂 It makes me laugh when Pete says something and Daz just totally accept it as right. Daz ask Pete can I watch the channel 5 program on catch up? 😂 But really can I watch it on catch up? Update. . . I taped and watched, very good. I seen that video when you upload. Looked very scary. I won't even drive on the motorway and that put me off even more.😮

Nope, not because of Sunday. In France KFC no longer do their traditional chicken!! They used to until not long ago. I guess there just wasn’t much demand for it in France.

Such a great vlog……you do make me laugh…..so pleased you are enjoying The French experience of driving your MH. Puts The UK to shame, such a welcoming country for MHs and Caravaners.

[@tonykirk1966]

It would be great to have park-ups in the UK, but I fear they be taken over by travellers and used as fly tipping sites.

[@ArianneAvalon]

We were just saying that. And local kids would wreck any facilities there too. They would soon become dogging spots and lorries would use them and fill them up. Such a shame.

[@elliotedge4307]

Uk is stunning just no were to bloody park lol.

[@anthonyfernwood8093]

Our island has a lot to learn, it’s a pity that motorhomes get the blame for everything even when it’s not true, they need to take a look at how France cope.
