Auto tours with an active, emotional, full of freedom and impressions, a program, enjoy, as you know, considerable popularity today. At the same time, like trips of any other nature and type, including those organized by specialized agencies, traveling by your own car, require some preparation.
And it’s not even so important whether it’s a tour abroad or wandering around the vast expanses, the approach to organization, with the exception of perhaps the documentary moment, is the same. It includes several indispensable points, namely:
- Naturally, the first rule for a successful, safe and comfortable auto tour is the choice (if possible) and the preparation of the vehicle itself. The machine, of course, must be in excellent and good condition. It is better to pre-purchase the necessary operational materials, compositions, auto parts of Skoda in Moscow (or another, usually your own or the nearest city where the official representative office of this brand guarantees the quality and originality of parts) in stock. It is not a hindrance to visit a car service center for checking the condition, inspecting the controls, brake system, etc. If necessary, it is certainly worth the repair, saving here will not work, there is no need and is elementarily dangerous.
- The moment is documentary and financial. If you intend to conquer and enjoy domestic resorts and excursion programs, everything is simpler, traditional documents and car equipment are enough. If this is, say, a European tour, you will also need a green card, medical insurance, a visa, a route sheet (where the program is written, places for staying overnight, etc.), a credit card. In general, the complete set (direct and documentary) of the car, the compilation and implementation of the program can also be ordered at travel agencies. Or learn everything in advance (preferably early) independently. By the way, in any case, do not forget about the credit card, all kinds of coupons, regular customer cards of network auto services, warranty sheets and other documents. It is clear that, for example, Daewoo auto parts in Moscow, in the "native" service center will be more affordable, plus confidence in quality. However, on the road, as you know, anything can happen even if the car is in perfect condition, then a credit card and savings cards can come in handy and will allow you to save a little or get VIP service.
- To think over the program in advance, make a list of sights and other "interesting things", add to the road maps.
