Motorhome Rental

McRent Italy Lago d'Orta

 

Some of our customers do not own a motorhome or camper van. In this case we can help you to set up a rental in the country your desired tour will take you. The rental stations will be as close as possible to a major airport, where you have a high likelihood to find a flight to from your closest airport at home.

If you would like to rent through us, contact us, letting us know which of our escorted tours you would like to book and which class of motorhome you would like to rent (we recommend COMPACT PLUS or COMFORT STANDARD). Please let us also know when you would like to pick the motorhome up and return the motorhome, as some customers like to add some days before and/or after our tour. We will then check availability for our tour and the desired motorhome during the time you would like to rent. With the result we would get back to you and we can then complete both bookings.

Why rent a motorhome and fly directly to Europe?

  • You can choose the type of model you might want to buy in future. This is something that allows you to find out what you like and dislike about the specific model.
  • You save time by flying directly to the region the tour will take place, but you might need to travel a certain distance to the first campsite in order to not miss the welcome dinner, where the participants meet each other for the first time.
  • You can rent a left hand steered motorhome, which makes driving on the continent a lot easier, as you can see the traffic better. Also your habitation door, being on the right, will allow access to the cabin from the pavement side. We actually recommend buying a left hand steered motorhome, if you intend to do the majority of your travels on the continent! If you intend to do this we can also help you on getting this set up at very attractive prices.
  • The rental vehicle has the latest emission sticker and can therefore be driven also in low emission zones.
  • If you participate in one of our wintertime tours, you have a motorhome at your disposal, that is equipped with the right type of tires, as in certain countries in Europe your vehicle must be equipped according to weather conditions.

What do I need to bring with me?

  • You can just fly with your personal belongings, like on any other holiday. The motorhome is equipped with cable drum and connection cable, European standard plug set for 230 V, toilet chemicals, hose, etc.
  • You can rent different packages like: bedding, kitchen equipment, etc. for an additional charge.
  • In certain locations we can arrange also for bikes to be rented, which will give you a lot of freedom when we are travelling together. On many of our tours you will find excellent biking routes.
