Happy
New Year from the Motorhomes Worldwide
Team!!
'2005 was a big year for us and our business continued
to grow by over 20%. We would like to Thank all
of our clients as you are all very important to
us. You are the reason we are here.
We are particularly grateful to those of you who
make repeat reservations on a regular basis and
we are planning to introduce our Customer Loyalty
Club later this year. We will announce full details
as soon as possible.
As I speak, we are rolling out our new internet
based reservations system which will operate 24
hours daily, 7 days a week - without any public
holidays. This will allow everyone to easily make
bookings themselves instantly, without having to
wait for a response from us.
This
does not mean we do not want to hear from you!
We pride ourselves on our friendly personal
service and we have actually expanded the number
of people in our Reservations department - please
Click
here
We understand that much of the product we offer
is of a specialist nature and it is extremely hard
to get quality assistance and advice elsewhere.
Planning your trip should be a pleasurable experience
and our helpful and knowledgeable team are here
specifically to ensure you receive the best advice,
service and value for money so you can enjoy doing
business with us.
Having said that, our clients come from throughout
the world - in every time zone. We want to make
sure everyone has access to rapid detailed quotes,
and the ability to make a reservation, no matter
what the time is here.
We do offer extended office hours and Freecall
telephone numbers from a number of Countries for
your convenience
We are one of the few companies who prints our
address, phone and fax numbers and email addresses
throughout our web sites so it is easy for you
to make personal contact. We have been in business
for over 26 years, and we know this is very important
to most people.
People do not normally like new companies who
are inexperienced and hard to contact 'live'. Your
leisure time is far too valuable to risk anything
going wrong with your arrangements.
2006 has started extremely well and the whole
world appears to be planning to travel! We are
setting new records for the number of enquiries,
virtually on a daily basis. Our web site rankings
have never been higher and new reservations are
at an all time high.
One note of caution however: If you are planning,
particularly, a Canal or River boat holiday - or
a Motorhome or RV - or a car Lease in Europe -
PLEASE book early. Some products are already booked
out for certain dates!
Whilst we have added additional quality suppliers
to make sure we can offer you the greatest choice
and selection, there are going to be many people
who miss out this year because they leave it too
late to make their reservation.
By the very nature of many of our specialist products,
they have a limited supply.
Please BOOK
EARLY - you cannot make your reservation
too soon, it is easy to leave it until you are
too late.
A big THANK
YOU once again for your support. Everyone
here really appreciates it and we do not take it
for granted.
Please let US try to exceed your expectations
in terms of Service, Choice and Value, and please
tell your friends about us.
We are 'The Experts'
Thank
you,
Tony
Wilson
Managing Director and Owner

Best
Price Guarantee !!
We don't say Lowest Price guarantee because sometimes
our prices may APPEAR higher but you have to carefully
check out the inclusions. We try and include as
much as possible in our rates so that you don't
have any 'big surprises' at the end of your rental.
Our quotes carefully spell out what is included
and what has to be paid at the start of your rental.
A
common mistake when clients compare rental rates
is that they don't read the inclusions carefully.
Sure, some companies say insurance is included but
what they omit to say is that it has an excess or
deductible of $3000 . We include Collision Damage
Waiver which reduces this to a more manageable figure
as standard. To buy this waiver will often cost
up to 12 Euros per day !
We
also include airport fees where we can - in Italy
for example some companies add 14% of the rental
rate. Other items to check for would be: Road Registration
fees, additional driver fees, city and sometimes
rail surcharges.

REMEMBER TO PACK...
- Calculator
- don't get ripped off with foreign exchange
conversions.
- Duct
tape
- great as fluff remover; to seal a box if you
want to send excess
baggage home; wrap around a travel bag if the
zip breaks or as extra security
- Lip
balm
- lips can dry out especially if you are not used
to being outdoors quite so much
- Muesli
bars -
will keep you going until the next meal
- Notebook
and pen...
handy especially for language barriers - draw
a picture - a bit like foreign pictionary! When
you don't know foreign numbers... at least you
can understand written prices & to make notes
of when and where you took that photo and to write
down details of new friends.
- Pedometer
-
see how many km's you cover in a day
- Pocket
knife - handy for cutting up an impromptu
picnic lunch
- Plastic
plate or frisbee
- useful for your lunch, cutting your cheese,
salami, tomato etc and for playing with afterwards...fun
on the beach
- Pre
printed address labels
- instead of taking your address book - just peel
and stick labels on your postcards
- Plastic
poncho with hood
- looks dorky but at least your hands will be
free for taking photos etc whereas an umbrella
can be a hindrance - especially in crowded places.
- Spare
spectacles - easy to replace sunglasses
but would you be lost without a spare pair of
prescription lenses?
- Safety
pins
- a hundred uses
- Travel
clock - in case you need to get up early
to catch a train, plane or make an early start
to avoid the crowds
- Torch
with fresh batteries - lots of uses
- Travel
scrabble / cards
- impromptu entertainment - great for breaking
the ice in a youth hostel!
- Tissues
...
if not for you, for the kid next to you with the
runny nose or sticky fingers
- umbrella
can be a hindrance - especially in crowded places.
- Various
sized Glad bags for fruit
(squashed banana in your backpack is NOT fun),
for leftovers, damp clothes, messy things.
- Wet
wipes
- instant hygiene and ideal for after lunch clean
up.
Got
any more travel tips?
Let us know and we'll pass them on to your fellow
travellers. A windcheater,
