sprostongreen Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 Thinking of taking a few days and driving this year instead of the usual boring plane journey. Looking for any hints or tips and if it's worth it or not. What route did you take? where did you stop off to stay overnight? Are you completely f**ked on the road back?!! How much did the fuel cost? Stuff like that. We'd be leaving from Glasgow on the Friday night, stay a night in France and then one in Barcelona and be in Benicàssim on the Monday afternoon/evening. 4 of us, 2 drivers so it would cost maybe £400 diesel there and back. Flights are £200 from here anyway so the other £400 can be used for food and accomodation and it's an adventure for the same price as flights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HippyDave Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Only thing I could offer is: seeing as you will/should have tents with you, camping on the way would be great. French campsites are all over the place, cheap, and pretty good too. You can also keep costs down by doing the hypermarket/wine/bread/cheese thing, which is pretty cool too. Mind you, Glasgow to Barça in two days is going some, you might want to adda a day inthere..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
