QUEEN VICTORIA

We all understand the dynamics of budgeting for a caravan road trip. You have to consider the cost of fuel, accommodation, food, and, of course, sustenance for Happy Hour.

When planning for a long adventure, you want your precious savings to stretch as far as possible, and so what often gets left out is ‘nice things’. We’re talking admission to tourist attractions, guided tours and dinner cooked by someone else (who also delivers wine to a table, not a campfire chair).

Every now and then it is nice to treat yourself, whether that’s to a gourmet dinner for two in a destination dining restaurant, or something flashier like a helicopter ride. Victoria offers a bounty of riches to the RV traveller, from rugged, iconic coastlines to world-class gastronomic wine country and historic riverboat heritage — and there are plenty of ways to experience it if you can dig a little deeper into your hip pocket.

Here, we offer up a suite of ideas for splurging on your next southern sojourn.
