The Great Aviva Road Trip 2024 Kicks Off!

The Great Aviva Road Trip – Day 1

Imagine the thrill of packing up the car, ready to embark on an epic road trip across one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Now, imagine doing it in a brand-new Citroën C5 Aircross ë-Series Plug-In Hybrid, with every detail of your journey carefully planned for you. Sounds like a dream, right? For the Riddett family from Donegal, this dream just became a reality, thanks to The Great Aviva Road Trip!

Aviva, in collaboration with Citroën, have given this lucky family the adventure of a lifetime: a 10-day road trip around the breathtaking landscapes of Ireland with a brand new car for the duration of their trip with car insurance provided by Aviva. The lucky winners, Michelle and Steve Riddett, along with their two children, Emma and Alex, were absolutely buzzing with excitement as they prepared to hit the road.

The Journey Begins

Day 2 of the Great Aviva Road Trip

The adventure kicked off at the Aviva offices in Dublin, where the Riddett family met with representatives from Aviva and Citroën. After receiving their tickets and the keys to their sleek Citroën C5 Aircross ë-Series Plug-In Hybrid, it was time to start their journey. With its eco-friendly hybrid technology, the car is perfect for long drives, combining comfort with the peace of mind that comes from driving a more sustainable vehicle.

From Dublin, the Riddett’s hit the road with wide smiles and even wider horizons. Their first destination? The family-friendly paradise of Kia Ora Farm.

Fun and Games at Kia Ora Farm

Day 2 of the Great Aviva Road Trip

Located in County Wexford, Kia Ora Farm is a wonderland for families, offering a blend of outdoor fun, friendly animals, and unique experiences. The Riddett’s couldn’t have had a better spot to kick off their adventure.

The day was packed with excitement, as Steve and Alex showed off their competitive side on the golf course, while Michelle couldn’t resist trying her hand at the diggers. Emma, on the other hand, found her happy place with the farm’s adorable bunnies, spending as much time as possible cuddling her new furry friends.

But it wasn’t just bunnies that stole the show. The whole family was delighted with the opportunity to meet and interact with emus and alpacas, animals they never expected to encounter on their Irish road trip. The combination of animal interactions, go-kart races, and digger driving made for an unforgettable first day on the road.
