Insurance Cover for Every Booking on Yescapa

When you hire a vehicle through Yescapa, insurance is always part of the deal — for both the owner and the traveller. Whether the vehicle is covered by one of our trusted insurance partners, by a professional operator's own policy, or by a private owner's personal hire insurance, you never travel unprotected.

No paperwork, no extra steps. Your insurance cover is confirmed the moment your booking is.

If your booking includes Yescapa insurance

Most vehicles on the platform are covered by one of our carefully selected local insurance partners. Each policy is purpose-built for motorhome and campervan rentals, and is automatically included in the booking.

Globally, hire insurance policies cover:

• Accidental damage to the vehicle — collision, overturning, fire, and explosion, whether you are responsible or not
• Glass breakage — windows, windscreen, and fixed glazed elements
• Personal injury to the driver and passengers — compensation in the event of bodily harm
• Third-party liability* — coverage for damage to other people and their property
• Theft of the vehicle*
• 24/7 Roadside Assistance — help on the road, anywhere in Europe

*Specific conditions and guarantees may apply depending on the country in which the vehicle is registered.

What is the excess?

The excess is the amount that the traveller is required to pay in the event of a claim where the traveller is responsible, or where no third party can be identified.

The exact amount depends on the country of registration of the vehicle and the insurance plan selected at booking. Most policies offer a Basic and a Premium (reduced excess) option.

Additional conditions and specific excess amounts for certain types of damage (e.g. glass breakage, upper parts of the vehicle) may apply. Always check the details on the vehicle listing or booking confirmation.

What's not covered

While our insurance policies are comprehensive, some situations and items are excluded across all countries:

• Paid transport — coverage applies to private/leisure travel only; transporting passengers or goods for payment is excluded
• Trailers and towed vehicles — loss or damage to any trailer or its contents
• Personal belongings — items stolen from inside the vehicle
• Removable appliances and equipment — fridges, TVs, and other non-fixed electrical appliances
• Non-fixed accessories — any part or accessory that is not permanently attached to the vehicle
• Household items — crockery, cutlery, chairs, tables, small appliances, and similar interior items
• Tyre damage — punctures, blowouts, or damage caused by braking or skidding
• Inaccessible roads — damage resulting from driving on roads or areas not suited to the vehicle's dimensions
• Driving under the influence — any incident where the driver tests positive is not covered, or significantly increases the applicable excess

Some additional exclusions may apply depending on the country where the vehicle is registered. You'll find the complete list in your policy documents.

Roadside Assistance — help is always a call away

Every insurance plan comes with 24/7 roadside assistance across Europe. Each country has a dedicated assistance partner, so the right help is always close by.

In the event of a breakdown or accident, assistance typically covers:

• Vehicle recovery and towing to the nearest garage
• Roadside repairs where possible
• Accommodation costs while the vehicle is being repaired
• Repatriation support for you and your passengers
• Medical assistance in the event of an accident or sudden illness
