Why people travel with us
We think through every detail so your RV trip across America becomes a dream you'll remember forever.
.
Our own route
We've driven and explored every stop on this route ourselves, and we know the secret spots — not tourist trails, but places you won't find on Google Maps.
Small group of up to 6 guests
People leave every trip as friends. That's why it's easy to travel with us even on your own — without the rush of big group tours.
All inclusive
Full meals, water and drinks on board, entry to every national park on the route, campgrounds and internet on the road. Just bring comfortable shoes and an outfit for great photos — don't worry about anything else.
Our team and an active trip
Starlink the whole way — internet even on the prairies and on the road. Bisha shoots photos and video, so you'll come home with tons of content, and Danila fixes anything that breaks. We love driving, walking and discovering new places — if you like an active vacation, you're one of us.

Who we are — Bisha and Danila
We’ve been traveling all our lives: Bisha has 35+ countries behind her, Danila 45+. And not the obvious ones: Kenya, nights in tents in Africa, Iran, Turkmenistan, Armenia, Portugal.
We met in New York, and in our very first year together we drove across the whole of America in an ordinary car: a big cross-country trip, Burning Man and the entire South.
The next year, just for fun, we bought an RV and invited our friends. They kept coming back and asking for longer routes, and that’s how The RV Escape was born. We still go on every tour ourselves — Danila and Bisha, always together.

Our signature dishes on tour
We're all about good food. A US road trip usually means fast food — not with us: we cook in the RV ourselves every day, and it's one of the main reasons people come back.
