What our customers say
"If you own a motorhome and enjoy some great company and plenty of laughs while exploring the world, you must sign up for one of Giles and Linda's tours. Spending a month with them in Spain over Christmas was one of the best decisions we have made during our 12 months on the road. The rally was well organised but, just as importantly, was great fun and enabled us to hang out with an amazing group of people. Thank you Giles and Linda."Read more

"From the moment we booked our tour of Norway the service we have received from Motorhome Tours has been nothing short of 5*. From the time we met up in Folkestone to get us cross channel via a pre tour booking facility we knew we were onto a winner! Giles and Linda have made everyone on the tour very welcome and their knowledge and planning has been second to none. Campsites in stunning locations, a great atmosphere and camaraderie among the whole group plus lots of organised walks and visits to places of interest along the way which you can take or leave according to your own interests. Without doubt, we will be choosing Motorhome Tours for future holidays.... why wouldn't we? Amazing attention to detail, an easy going fun atmosphere plus none of the hassle of pre booking sites and planning routes yourself! Thank you Motorhome Tours for the most memorable and fun tour."Read more
"Had some anxieties about travelling abroad in our motorhome. However after reading the information about the rally and speaking with Giles, I signed up and have been very pleased with our experience. The days have flown past and having Giles and Linda organising events has made the rally more than we could have expected. Any concerns we’ve had have been resolved quickly by help from both Giles and Linda. I have no hesitation in recommending Motorhome Tours. Paula"Read more

"We highly recommend Motorhome Tours. From the moment we booked our tour and throughout the tour Linda & Giles were there to give help and advice if we needed it. The tour was well planned and very enjoyable. We also recommend the Christmas rally at Bonterra Resort. We have booked another tour and the 2024 rally, Our experience with Motorhome Tours has been excellent, Linda & Giles are very sociable and enthusiastic tour hosts and take great care of their customers."Read more
"Friendly, knowledgable and helpful couple. I like that when you arrive on site they (on most occasions) meet you at reception and show you to your pitch. After a long drive it is most welcome. On 2023 tour of Norway the venues and sites were eclectic, with most having fabulous scenery and location for exploring. Even for overnight stops between long distance the basic sites were clean and relaxing. Travel was made simple, they give you an itinerary the night before and directions for travel to your next site, with approximate timings. Group excursions are varied with no pressure to join in if you want to do your own thing. Overall a great itinerary which I don’t think I would have put together myself, and it’s been good meeting other like minded travellers along the way."Read more
