VIP Trade Partner

Hey everyone,
We’re really excited to officially introduce ourselves to the VW California Club community as new VIP Partners!
Like many of you here, we love hitting the road—which is why we set out to build PlanWithTrip, an intuitive travel planner designed to take the headache out of mapping routes, sorting stops, and wrangling itineraries. To kick things off, we’ve put together an exclusive 20% discount just for club members.
Before diving into the details, here are a couple of quick links if you'd like to take a look:

What PlanWithTrip is all about
We built PlanWithTrip around how road-trippers actually travel, focusing on a few practical headaches:- Plan together, skip the chaotic group chats
Whether you're heading out with your partner, family, or travelling in convoy with friends, planning usually ends up scattered across WhatsApp messages, saved links, and scribbled notes. With Trip, everyone shares the same live map. Anyone can suggest detours, vote on lunch stops, and see changes update in real time across their phone,tablet, or laptop. - Meet Pip, your route-building assistant
Pip is our built-in assistant, but it goes well beyond generic recommendations. You can ask Pip to find quiet scenic detours, reorganise a driving leg to avoid long stints behind the wheel, suggest hidden local spots, or even assemble a custom packing checklist so the hookup cable or levelling ramps don’t get left on the driveway. - Plan on Trip, navigate with whatever you prefer
We didn’t build Trip to replace your in-dash navigation or preferred driving app—its job is to make the planning phase enjoyable. Once your route is mapped, you can send it straight to Google Maps or Apple Maps, or download a standard GPX file ready to plug into your van’s satnav unit.
Built by four friends, shaped by the community
Behind the scenes, PlanWithTrip is just four friends who wanted a better way to plan our own travels. While we’re proud of how far it’s come, we know nobody understands the realities of road-tripping and campervan travel quite like this group.We’d love for you to take it for a spin—whether that's exploring the Lake District demo above or roughing out an upcoming weekend escape. We're genuinely keen to hear your honest thoughts, feedback, and wishlist items so we can tailor future updates to the way you travel.
Looking forward to getting stuck into the community!
Cheers,
Ollie, Ash, Josh and Alex
The PlanWithTrip.ai Team
