Скачать или смотреть TomTom Go Camper sat nav : review after two months use

The TomTom Go Camper sat nav is specifically developed to help RVers and was introduced in May 2018. I acquired mine at the beginning of August 2018 and have been using it for two months have dong two particular journeys with it in different environments - the first partially on small country roads in northern Poland and the second using mainly motorways in Germany. Here I present my opinions after this time.

It costs around EUR400.

Features with the device include a 15cm screen and Wi-Fi which not only means that maps and places of interest can be updated without a computer but more useful than that is that it knows about actual driving conditions. It also reads aloud SMSes and I tried that out in three languages (English, Polish and German) all of which were understandable. Another feature is TomTom Road Trips which I have not learned how to use yet so I have not commented on it but will do so at a future date.

It also has campsite finder built in alongside the other points of interest.

I believe however that the main reason for getting a device such as this is the ability to programme it with the vehicle size and weight meaning that low bridges should not be a problem - and lets face it - all of us campers have had problems with this in the past!

Other useful features include speed camera warning (probably not available in Switzerland where I believe it is illegal to give warning).

I live in a motorhome full time and travel around Europe in it. I spend most of my time in Poland, Germany and Italy. Vanlife is my life.

In my YouTube channel, I present reviews of recreational vehicles.

I also show some of the places I have visited in Europe in my own motorhome, as well as the places you can stay at! I try to give as much coverage as I can to official campsites and free places which I use for overnighting. Therefore you can find here the aire or stellplatz that you are possibly looking for.
