  • Crossing the Sea in Style: Motorhome Adventures on a Ferry to Spain - Brittany Ferries. In this Vlog we take our Swift Kon Kiki 794 to Spain by Ferry from Portsmouth to Bilbao. We normally take the Euro Tunnel and drive through France so this is a new experience for us. Join us to find out if we think the ferry is worth it. #motorhomeadventures #vanlife #travelvlog #spain

    takes me about 45 mins from southampton then ship to santander on a thursday night 33hrs crossing but from plymouth its 24hr xing but im also a hgv1 driver so used to bigger rvs- -- everybody gets a ticket so you can show them to duty free shop for whatever you want--plusv you can get pet friendly cabins as well

    travelling by ferry is the best way to travel,no worrying about backage weights and so much easier driving your own vehicle,great video

      Thanks for the information we have just looked it up and it looks like a great site, unfortunately, we have already booked our stay this time around so will look at that one in the future. Happy travels 😊

    Really good vlog. You were lucky with the crossing as apparently that one can be really rough if you get bad weather. Happy holidays. x

    We love the inside cabins especially with the false window. Also a note about the reclining chair lounge if it feels uncomfortable and it’s not too busy coming back I did see and speak with others that lied on the bench seats opposite the lounge.
    Have a great time

    • @lifes4touring
      @lifes4touring  18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you Mick and thanks for letting us know about the bench seats as it sounds like a good option if needed. We appreciate it 😊

    We had a smooth crossing like that , only did the overnight trip and stayed up as find it hard to sleep on a moving vehicle , looking forward to the rest of the vlogs

    • @lifes4touring
      @lifes4touring  18 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi and thank you, we have the overnight crossing on the way back so giving the recliners ago. It wasn’t the best sleep even with the cabin as you say because it's moving it's a surreal sensation but we did get some. Happy travels 😊

    • @lifes4touring
      @lifes4touring  16 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Thank you and it is very hot at the moment, I think even an Aircon unit will struggle. A couple of good fans will keep the air flowing 😊 Happy travels

      @stuartgillies8307 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      We are currently in Spain and have a Truma Aventa , it doesn’t struggle at all and it was 37c in Merida

    Don’t do what I did and put the room card in the back of my phone in the case as it stops it from working , oops 😜. Happy holidays

      @lifes4touring  18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you and gladly we didn’t do the same thing, thanks for the heads up for our return journey 😊🙌 Happy travels 😊

      Every time I do the same. I think I exchanged it 3 times last time. Beats me why they can’t use a proper RFID tag rather than magnetic strip cards.
