Motorhome Hire Italy

The Italian motorhome rental market has been growing steadily over recent years. The reasons behind this growth include increased tourism from abroad, the increase in the numbers of retired Italians living overseas and the fact that many families now prefer to travel together rather than rent separate accommodation. In addition, the popularity of camping holidays has seen an increase in demand for motorhomes.

Italians love to holiday away from home and they spend around half of their annual income on trips abroad. They often take extended breaks at resorts such as Sardinia, Sicily and Tuscany where there are plenty of good-value campsites. Many Italians like to combine their holidays with visits to other countries too, especially France, Spain and Portugal. These destinations offer some great beaches and warm weather, but they're not always easy places to find cheap accommodation. Camping in these areas can cost upwards of €50 per night, while renting a small apartment costs between €150 and €200 per week. It's much cheaper to stay in a self-catering campground or caravan park, which typically charge less than €30 per person per day.

If you plan to visit Rome, Florence or Venice then it makes sense to consider hiring a motorhome instead of staying in hotels. This way you'll save money and avoid having to pay for expensive airport transfers. If you don't mind driving yourself, you can even save further by choosing a self-drive option. Some companies offer discounts if you book through them, so check out our selection of motorhome rentals below before booking.
