Happy VW Bus Day! 🚐🎉

Today we’re celebrating 76 years of the iconic VW Bus, a vehicle that has inspired adventures and unforgettable road trips since the first T1 "Split Screen" model rolled off the production line in 1950. From the classic generations to the all-electric ID. Buzz, the VW Bus has continued to evolve while capturing hearts around the world.

A few fascinating facts about these legendary vehicles:

🚐 The VW Bus is one of the longest-running vehicle productions in automotive history and remains the best-selling van of all time.
🎬 It’s a true cultural icon, making appearances in popular TV shows and films including Little Miss Sunshine, That '70s Show and Cars.
🏭 Early production was incredibly limited, with just around 10 vehicles being built per day.
🌍 More than 12.5 million VW Buses have been sold across over 150 countries worldwide.

Whether you own a classic Splitty, a beloved campervan conversion or the latest ID. Buzz, today is a day to celebrate everything that makes the VW Bus special.

👇 What Do These Destination Dupes Have to Offer?

🇭🇷 Croatia ➡️ 🇲🇪 Montenegro – Montenegro might just be the best-kept secret on the Adriatic. Think crystal-clear waters, stunning mountain scenery covering over 80% of the country and historic coastal towns like Kotor and Budva, all without Croatia's price tag or its crowds. Just bear in mind it's still developing its tourism infrastructure, so if you’re up for a slightly more adventurous trip, this is the place to be.

🇨🇭 Switzerland ➡️ 🇸🇮 Slovenia – If Switzerland is on your bucket list but not in your budget, Slovenia is the answer. You get the Alpine lakes, the mountain scenery and the charming towns, plus motorhome-friendly roads and affordable campsites throughout the country. With 50% fewer tourists than Switzerland, you can actually enjoy it all at a relaxed pace. Lake Bled alone is worth the trip.

🇪🇸 Barcelona ➡️ 🇪🇸 Valencia – And if Barcelona feels a little overwhelming these days, Valencia is well worth considering. Same culture, same beaches, same incredible food, but with four to five times fewer visitors each year. It's a brilliant option if you want an authentic Spanish city experience without the chaos.
