Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Furthest you have travelled from home?
Permalink  

I know most of you have pretty much traveled all over the country. What I was wondering was what is the furthest you have traveled from the mainland United States. have you traveled to far Northern Canada or have traveled through South America? Have any of you ever taken a cruise across the Atlantic and then traveled in your RV across Europe?

We did Alaska a few years ago, turned out to be over 11,000 miles. Left from Great Falls Montana and returned into Fargo North Dakota 5 1/2 months later. What a trip!!

Like Fred we have been to Alaska and also to the Florida Keys. I know people who have driven their RV all the way to Panama and to the Arctic Ocean in Alaska and the Northwest Territories of Canada. I also know people who have rented or bought RVs to travel in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. I saw one very rugged motorhome in Alaska that had been to about all continents, scroll down my journal entry to see the map and country list on the side of that motorhome.
You can even rent a Class C motorhome on the Big Island of Hawaii. There is no limit.

I was thinking in a year or two getting a seasonal job in Alaska and trying to get up to Prudhoe Bay. I worked in Alaska about 10 years ago and had an opportunity to go to the Artic Ocean but passed it up. I have been kicking myself every since then.

7000 mile trip in 15 days, a big loop from California to Missouri to Michigan and back to visit friends and family. Too much in too little time.

By RV we have traveled (not all the same trip of course):
1.  from Tumwater, Washington to Key West, Florida
2.  from Tumwater, Washington to Yukon River up the Dalton Highway in Alaska
3.  from Tumwater, Washington to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia

On a cruise:
1.  from Los Angeles we flew to San Juan, Puerto Rico boarded cruise ship, various islands, through Panama Canal to Acapulco and flew back to Los Angeles

P.S.  would love to rent RV in Europe and do that for a couple of months...bucket list item but it will never happen. Oh well.

We were in Scotland fall of 2008. Was quite surprised by the large amount of RVs on the roads and in parks. They were quite small by our standard. They call it Carvaning over there. Looked to be fun.

 I've been on several cruises around the northern half of the world, on gray ships.
Sharon and I went to Argentina and stayed in a villa in Campo de El Paso outside the city of Sante Fe on the Parana River. Been there twice. Also went to Ovalla, Chile about 8 hour drive north of Santiago. We stayed in a campground and later at a beach house in Tongoe.
