Summary
Based on the above information motorhome hire seems to be the
winner all around. Allowing you to travel freely, save on the
cost of dinning in as apposed to the cost of hotel restaurants,
and the cost of a motorhome park by far surpasses the cost of
a 3 star room in Paris!
Motorhomes allows the kids to be entertained while
traveling, with the freedom of board games in the back or some
cases a tv.
There are a lot of things you need to take into account when
deciding on your travel arrangements for Europe - Rail is going
to allow you a more relaxed way of travel, but are timetables
going to slow you down, or is carting all your luggage around
going to be a nuisance?
Tours are great for working out your itinerary, but are
you going to have the freedom to do everything YOU want to do?
