RV Trip Planning Ideas

Enjoying a vacation from the comfort of your RV is a fantastic way to get up close and personal with Mother Nature. Steer yourself in any direction you choose to accomplish lifelong dreams and discover parts of the world you never knew existed. RV trips offer unrivaled flexibility to your itinerary. Hit the road early, sleep in late, take the highway or hop on the scenic route — everything is on your schedule.

However, thoughtfully planning your adventure's rough outline is crucial to having the time of your life while you are away. Let's dive into how to plan your next RV trip.

The Importance of Planning Your RV Trip

Creating an itinerary is a good idea whether you are heading out for a few days or a few weeks. Knowing where you want to go and what you want to see lets you check everything off your list. You will have a better understanding of ideal routes and what you want and need to bring. A plan can also help you stick to your budget.

Here are two of the most important RV trip planning considerations.

Activities 

RV trips come in all shapes and sizes. Some RV campers drive along the coast to catch some rays at the beach, while others head for the mountains to get in some hiking. Some even park their RV to explore the city, tour museums and introduce their tastebuds to new and exciting flavors. 

Before setting off on your trip, it is wise to understand what you want to do in the places you are going to ensure there is something for everyone to enjoy, no matter their age. Plus, you will be spending much of your time in your RV, so you will want to devise fun ways to pass the time. A few activities you might want to add to your RV itinerary include: 

  • Reading your favorite book.
  • Playing a board game.
  • Attending a local festival.
  • Going stargazing.
  • Enjoying a walking or biking trail.
  • Cooking a delicious meal.
  • Listening to a podcast.

Equipment 

Regardless of the length of your trip, there are some important things you will want to pack with you. Getting these items ready before you head out allows you to make sure you have everything and can comfortably pack them. Here are some ideas: 

  • Tire inflator
  • First aid kit
  • Battery jump starter
  • Flashlight 
  • Food and water
  • Pillows and blankets
  • Portable phone chargers
  • Clothes for all weather types
  • Activity-specific equipment, like hiking boots or a mountain bike
  • Camera
  • Games and books
