Motorhome Travels

Leasing camping vehicles and motorhomes in Europe is becoming easier as European camping vacations are a popular holiday choice. Be prepared to spend a while locating your vehicle, though. You may need to make some telephone calls to Europe for information and quotes.

Initially, of course, you should plan out your trip and research European driving regulations. If you are planning a long vacation, bear in mind that there may be legal passport limitations to the amount of time you can spend in Europe. You may also need to apply for travel visas if you plan to travel to non-European Union countries.

There is a shortage of motorhomes to rent, so it is advisable to book well in advance. Also consider whether you will need to arrange for an International Driver's License and be aware that you will also need to carry your valid driving license with you. U.S. citizens can complete an application form and arrange for an International Driver's permit via the American Automobile Association. Booking a motorhome for a round trip is the cheapest rental option and is often the only way trips can be organized, due to the lack of cross-border motorhome rental companies. It is relatively easy to drive across Europe in a short space of time, though.
