Class B campervans shine on routes where bigger campervans struggle. Here are some of our favourite journeys perfect for a nimble, easy-to-park campervan:
California Wine Country Loop (USA):
Duration: 4-7 days | Distance: ~480 km
Start in San Francisco and explore Napa, Sonoma, and Russian River valleys. A Class B fits perfectly in small-town parking, narrow vineyard roads, and boutique winery lots where bigger campervans can't go. Stay at campsites tucked into redwood forests between tasting rooms.
Pacific Northwest Coastal Drive (USA):
Duration: 7-10 days | Distance: ~970 km
Drive from Seattle through Olympic National Park, down the Oregon Coast to Cannon Beach and Crater Lake. Class B campervans handle the winding coastal Highway 101 beautifully and fit into state park campsites with tighter sites.
Utah Mighty Five National Parks (USA):
Duration: 7-10 days | Distance: ~1,290 km
Visit all five Utah national parks: Zion, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Arches, and Canyonlands. Class B campervans excel here—many parks have campsites with size restrictions that eliminate Class A rigs. Plus, you'll navigate Zion's switchbacks and Moab's narrow roads with ease.
Vancouver Island Explorer (Canada):
Duration: 5-7 days | Distance: ~640 km
Take the ferry from Vancouver to Victoria and explore Vancouver Island's dramatic coastline, rainforests, and coastal towns. A Class B campervan is perfect for ferry travel, navigating island roads, and parking in Tofino or Ucluelet.
Portugal's Atlantic Coast (Europe):
Duration: 7-14 days | Distance: ~1,050 km
Start in Lisbon and drive south through the Algarve, then north to Porto along coastal roads. Class B campervans fit perfectly in Portugal's historic town centres and beachside parking areas. Stop for fresh seafood, surf, and sunsets.
Scottish Highlands & Isle of Skye (Europe):
Duration: 7-10 days | Distance: ~800 km
Drive from Edinburgh through the Scottish Highlands to the Isle of Skye. Single-track roads with passing places are common here—a Class B handles them perfectly while larger campervans struggle. Camp beside lochs with mountain views.

Why choose a Class B campervan over a bigger motorhome or a tent? Here’s what makes travellers fall in love with van life:
Drives Like a Regular Vehicle
If you can drive a large SUV or pick-up truck, you can handle a Class B. Manoeuvring, parking and negotiating tight spaces is easy. No special skills or training required, just confidence and common sense.
Best fuel efficiency of any campervan type
Smaller engines, lighter weight and better aerodynamics mean Class B campervans typically get 15–22 mpg, significantly better than Class A (8–14 mpg) or Class C (10–16 mpg) motorhomes. You’ll spend less at petrol stations and more on experiences.
Access Anywhere
Class B campervans fit where bigger motorhomes can’t:
More access = more adventure.
Stealth Camping & Urban Flexibility
A Class B blends in. From the outside, it looks like a work van or passenger vehicle. This means you can:
Perfect for Spontaneous Travel
No reservations? No problem. With a Class B, you can:
Your home travels with you, always accessible.

No Towing, No Setup
Everything is in one vehicle. No need to:
Just park, crack open the side door, and you’re home.
