Travelhome: the specialist in motorhome travel

Enjoy glittering glaciers, the vibrant city life or the peaceful national parks. It's all possible with Travelhome's camper trips. Whether it is in Canada or America or a little closer to home such as Iceland or Norway, these camper trips make it a wonderful experience.

Travelhome has been the camper specialist since 1986 and is part of the ANWB. It started with renting out campers in the Netherlands. This soon grew into camper trips throughout Europe and beyond. Canada, America, Cuba and even Namibia and Australia are among Travelhome's destinations. America and Canada are especially popular.

America

America is a versatile country. Ideal for combining beautiful natural parks with large American cities. Discovering the country with a camper is one of the best ways; you decide where you stop along the way and the pace of your journey.

America is of course a big country. So where will you start your camper journey? Do you choose the southwest or northwest? Or would you rather choose one of the 50 states you will travel through? For example Florida or Alaska? We describe a number of trips in America.

Florida

Palm trees, clear blue waters and white beaches. You quickly think of this when you think of Florida. But the beautiful state has more to offer than just that. Florida has many extensive wetlands with special bird species and alligators. For example, the Everglades National Park is located here; the largest subtropical nature reserve in America.

Florida also has vibrant world cities such as Jacksonville and Miami. Jacksonville is the largest city in Florida and is known for its long beaches. Miami is a metropolis and is one of the largest cities in America. With the Art Deco buildings on the Ocean Drive coastal road, you feel like you are in the 30s.

West America

Visiting Western America is high on many people's bucket lists. This is also ideal with a camper. This area of ​​America is best known for its many national parks. Consider, for example, the Grand Canyon, the wide and deep gorge in the north of the state of Arizona. It is one of the oldest national parks in America and you have beautiful views here.

Lake Powell

Another nature park in the area is Zion National Park. Zion National Park has a 24-mile long and 800-foot deep canyon, carved out by the Virgin River. It has towering red rock walls and idyllic waterfalls. It is an ideal park for hiking. One of the most popular trails is The Narrows. You walk through the water in a gorge with steep rock walls. In some places you even stand in water up to your waist! Good preparation for this hike is therefore recommended.

The Joshua Tree National Park is also highly recommended in the area. This park is known for its strange landforms. Both the hills and the rocks consist of solid rock. This rock has again crumbled into loose pieces. The park owes its name to the Joshua Tree that grows in the park.

A must see in this region is Yosemite National Park. There are so many beautiful walks to take and impressive viewpoints to visit. The park consists of thundering waterfalls, beautiful valleys, granite rock cliffs and dense forests with giant sequoia trees that are thousands of years old. Highly recommended!

Other parks in this area include Bryce Canyon National Park, consisting of naturally formed amphitheaters. Or the Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park, which is known for its enormous rock formations and the world's largest trees. Such as the General Sherman Tree, the largest tree measured by volume.

Western America is also known for big cities. Take a gamble in Las Vegas, walk or cycle across the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco or experience the glitz and glamor in Beverly Hills in Los Angeles.

Eastern Canada

Anyone who hears Eastern Canada probably immediately thinks of the metropolis Toronto or Montreal. In Toronto you can enjoy shopping in the Eaton Center or enjoy beautiful views of the city in the CN Tower. In Montreal you can ideally enjoy the historic part of the city, but also the new part. It is a multicultural city and is known for its delicious cuisine.

The main attraction in Eastern Canada is of course the Niagara Falls. These world-famous waterfalls are located on the border of America and Canada.
