Vacationing in a recreational vehicle (RV) is a classic road trip option for many reasons. It saves money while providing travelers with all the amenities you’d find at home. It also gives the whole family a chance to meet new people and helps create lifelong memories. Here's more detail on why traveling by RV can be a great choice. 

The Benefits of an RV Trip

1. Save Money

By design, recreational vehicles are meant to be a home away from home. Depending on the make and model you buy, they come with personal kitchens, bathrooms, Wi-Fi, and beds for the whole family. Not only does a road trip mean no expensive train, plane, or bus tickets, it also means no costly hotels. And with microwaves, fridges, and stoves already built into the vehicle, there’s also no need to eat out at restaurants every day and night. In fact, the primary expense to account for would be the RV’s rental, gas, and nightly stays at RV parks. 

2. Meet Like-Minded Travelers

Not everybody travels by recreational vehicle, so there’s a sense of community when you meet other families on RV trips. By resting at RV parks, you’ll have a chance to meet new faces and swap stories about cross-country travels. Kids will be able to connect with each other and learn more about people outside of their own neighborhoods, which can help them develop as individuals. Even regular drivers and friends back home will ask you about the fun you’re having. 

3. Have Quality Family Time

Like every great adventure, the trip is more about the journey than the destination. Instead of fitting your itinerary into the schedule of a train, plane, or hotel, the family can travel on their own personal schedule, which gives everybody enough time to unwind and connect. Living in close quarters gives each person a chance to learn new things about the family members who are usually at work, school, or in their own bedrooms.
