The day we picked up our Vacationer Caravans Rough Rider 226C was one of the happiest days for our family.
Like every other Australian, COVID threw a massive spanner in our planned adventures for 2020 and after being stuck in lockdown, we could not wait to collect our new caravan and plan some fun for the future and camp in our backyard!
The day was SPECIAL! The team at Escape RV’s rolled out the ‘green grass’ carpet and we finally got to experience our very own handover! Plus – our great mate Macca was there with What’s Up Downunder to say G’day and film some segments for the telly. Could the day get any better?
Handover was OVERWHELMING…in a great way! We were blown away by the service and attention to detail Escape RV’s & Vacationer Caravans focused on. They took us through absolutely everything – inside and out. Despite being in and out of hundreds of caravans over the years at shows and through promotional work, we asked them to go through all the things they would normally go through with first time caravanners – we actually learnt a lot and here is our biggest tip!
FILM IT or RECORD IT…
I had my phone on standby the whole time and made sure I filmed all the bits that were new to us or that I knew we would want to go over again – this came in handy during shake down when we referred to clips we had taken of our new Redvision Battery Management system by Redarc, information about the ALKO Enduro & ESC and our Award RV Diesel Heater (…stuck in Vic over winter, we are so glad we added this one…)
STAY TUNED for our FULL review of our Vacationer Caravans and more about WHY we chose this awesome Ausssie Manufactuer…

What a beautiful van. Congrats again guys. 😁♥️
Adele it was amazing to meet you today at the sydney caravan and camping show and showing us through the vacationer vans for our family of 2 soon to be 3. I appreciated that you spent the time with us to tell us about your experiences in the van and showed/told us about the quality of vacationer vans.
Hey Alana and Damien – thank you so much for stopping by 🙂 I hope you had a wonderful time at the show. Always here to help – Cheers Adele x
