Campervan Rentals Around the World

Campervan Rentals Header

We may be biased, but we think renting a campervan is one of the best ways to travel. You have the freedom to do pretty much whatever you want and really get off the tourist trail.

You can explore special corners of a country that are only accessible when you have your home on wheels.

We have rented campervans and motorhomes in several countries around the world (as you can see from the articles below!) and don’t have any plans to stop traveling this way.

After building several campervans ourselves in the US, and teaching others how to build their dream campervan in our online course, Van Conversion Academy, we feel we have the knowledge to pick out the best campervans when we travel internationally.

Fun Fact: Some parts of the world call it a campervan hire or a motorhome hire instead of a campervan rental. For example, when researching you might see “Hiring a campervan” or “Best Campervan Hires”.

From budget vans to luxurious high-end campers, we have tested most types of vehicles when renting campervans internationally. Let us show you what to expect when booking your next campervan rental.

How to Book a Campervan Rental

Iceland Campervan Rental Guide | Two Wandering Soles

Trying to figure out which company to rent a campervan through can be a daunting task. 

We’ve done it 4 times now, so we know how overwhelming it can be the first time.

Our go-to place to find the best campervan rentals in a particular destination is MotorhomeRepublic.com (it’s not just for motorhomes, trust us). This is an aggregate (kind of like what Booking.com is for hotels or what Discover Cars is for car rentals) that rounds up all the options in one place so you can easily compare them

We really like using their filters because you can input the number of travelers, and other important features like “automatic transmission” and amenities like a toilet or shower. 

Additionally, you can choose to display options within a price range or filter by the highest reviews, making it a really handy and user-friendly tool. Go ahead and take a look at Motorhome Republic for yourself.

Okay, you’ve got Motorhome Republic pulled up for your dates and you can see all your options… But how do you even begin to choose between the companies?

Being that we’ve personally rented campervans all around the world (and have built 3 of our own!), we feel like we have a really good handle on what to look for.
