Good evening all!
Just thought I would drop in a note of our visit to the Cali factory in Hanover.
The place is still up & running & is an absolute gem!
When we arrived we checked in; they said I was a day early, I said no I wasn’t & showed them my email trail!!!! All sorted!
The nutzfahrzeuge itself is large with a coffee bar, restaurant & the shop along with some desks etc you would find in a showroom. Everyone in there was so helpful & were doing everything to help our stay a pleasurable one.
Shower block looks brand new with a toilet for male , female & disabled each with a shower sink & toilet, plus aircon!!!
A Weber bbq gas bbq is provide along with Vw tools! - we were told not to bother cleaning it after use, they would do it in the morning!!!!
Bbq pack is €24.5 & is as pictures show, but was the first time I have seen the bratties in person! Amazing. Each person gets 2 drinks as well plus either coleslaw or potato salad each. Plates cutlery provided, no need to wash, but we did!!!
The pitch itself x3 & has leccy & weight bags were provided for awnings ( too windy to put ours out)
Ear plugs.are provided as well. Shame building site opposite side of road but stopped work at 6 !
Going for tour in morning of factory, but no need to move from pitch until after.
More tomorrow!!!! Just enough to wet appetite!!!!

Oh wow, enjoy! Thank you for sharing and I look forward to reading about your factory tour.

How do you book the pitch and tour? Are these made available to the general public?
 
Hi all,
Day 2 in the VW factory tour!
Booking of parking space(free) & factory tour(free) I did through the following email address; vwn-kundencenter@volkswagen.de
They will reply asking for chassis number & reg no. 1 night stay only. They will ask if you want breakfast package (€17.95) &/or bbq package. Factory tour is booked when you check , although it seems like it’s a given that you want it!.
Factory tour itself lasts around 1.5-2 hours, no photos allowed to be taken unfortunately. We went with Germans in the group so mostly in German, which I could mostly understand, but my wife used google live translate which worked a treat as the guide narrated - top tip!!! She really enjoyed it understanding what was being said
Off to Allsee camping site for 2 days now to go to autostadt & surrounding museums!!!
