Hi
Soon I shall go and get photos, and start another thread, as I expect to book for 2011, the site will need a bit of notice, but in the meantime, I would think you might like to look at routes, and how long you want to take...It can be done in 2 days to Bulgaria, with 2 drivers...but I would expect you want to take more. There is then a question of breakdown....many Bongos will have a towbar, so it would be an easy task to knock up a couple of solid hitch bars....and with everyone carrying one type of spare part, everything will be covered. I expect this will be un-necessary with Bongos, though, but years ago we were planning a monster European Land Rover tour, and this idea came up!
If anyone wants advice or opinions, ask away!
Cheers
Helen

Hi
I've just thought...if enough people are travelling, and you make a good advanced booking, what about asking the ferry companies/ Eurotunnel, for a block discount?
As the Dutch say...no you have got, yes you can get 8) 8)
