Croatia's Adriatic coastline stretches over 1,770 kilometres, dotted with more than 1,200 islands, making it one of Europe's most rewarding destinations for a road trip on four wheels. Start in the capital Zagreb and head south towards Split, a journey of around 410 km that takes you through rolling hills and past the Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its 16 terraced lakes connected by waterfalls. From Split, the coastal road to Dubrovnik covers roughly 230 km, hugging cliffsides with views across the Adriatic Sea. Along the way, stop at the medieval walled town of Trogir, the oyster beds of Ston, and the lush Pelješac Peninsula, where local vineyards produce some of the country's finest red wines. Inland, the Istrian Peninsula offers truffle-rich forests, hilltop villages like Motovun, and Roman ruins in Pula, including a remarkably preserved amphitheatre. Croatia's roads are generally well-maintained, though some coastal stretches are narrow and winding — ideal for a campervan rather than a larger vehicle. Motorhome travellers will find plenty of spacious campsites near major towns. With Yescapa, you can hire directly from local owners across Croatia, choosing from a wide range of vehicles to match your route and group size. This peer-to-peer approach often means more flexible pick-up points and competitive pricing, so you can spend more time exploring and less time planning logistics.
May to October is the prime window for a campervan trip in Croatia, with long daylight hours and warm seas ideal for swimming. The Dubrovnik Summer Festival runs from mid-July to late August, filling the old town with open-air theatre and music. In September, Istria hosts the Subotina truffle festival near Buzet, celebrating the region's white truffle season. Spring and early autumn offer quieter roads and milder temperatures, perfect for exploring national parks. Summer is the most popular season, so booking your motorhome on Yescapa early gives you the widest choice of vehicles from local owners at fair peer-to-peer rates.

Croatia offers a wide selection of campsites stretching from the Istrian coast through the Kvarner Bay to Dalmatia. Many sites sit right by the sea and provide pitches with electric hook-ups, sanitary facilities, and Wi-Fi. Whether you travel by motorhome or campervan, you will find sites with suitable access and service points. Several campsites also feature pools, restaurants, and direct beach access.
Croatia's motorway network connects Zagreb to the coast efficiently, with the A1 running south to Split and the A6 heading west to Rijeka. Tolls apply on most motorways and can be paid in cash or by card at toll booths. Motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes fall into a higher toll category, so keep your vehicle weight in mind. The speed limit on motorways is 130 km/h for cars but 90 km/h for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes. Coastal roads like the D8 Adriatic Highway are toll-free but narrower, with frequent bends and limited overtaking opportunities — allow extra time if driving a larger vehicle.
The owners are very nice and helpful people very easy cummunication. The camper was well prepared, easy process for take-over and return.
I had a very good experience, the camper was well prepared, the communication with the owner was excellent. The description of the camper was perfect, we had a very good time. Vicente explained everything very well when I arrived and took his time to show me everything, on the day of return we were even taken to the airport.
Everything was perfect. The camper has all the comforts you may need, has a lot of space, good facilities, the motor is strong and makes you feel safe. Alejandro and his son were really nice and always reachable. We can absolutely recommend it. We had an amazing holiday in Lanzarote ❤️🌵☀️
Carlos y su familia han sido encantadores y nos ha puesto muchísimas facilidades en todo momento. Primera experiencia muy agradable dentro de la furgoneta, recomendable totalmente. Pronto repetiremos 😊
FR: Les propriétaires sont très attentionnés et gentils. Sophie a été adorable avec nous, alors que nous ne parlons pas français. Le camping-car est parfaitement équipé avec tout le nécessaire. Nous recommandons de passer la première nuit branchés à l'électricité ou de beaucoup rouler le premier jour pour que le réfrigérateur atteigne sa température maximale. Notre chien et nous-mêmes nous sommes sentis comme à la maison. Aucun reproche à faire. ES: Los propietarios muy atentos y amables, Sophie fue muy amable con nosotros que no sabemos hablar francés. La autocaravana está perfectamente equipada con todo. Recomendamos pasar la primera noche enchufados a la electricidad o conducir mucho el primer día para que la nevera alcance su máximo. Tanto nosotros como nuestro perro nos hemos sentido en casa. No tenemos ninguna pega.
My partner and I hired this van for a week in the Dolomites, the vehicle has a lot of character and a homely feel. Dusan, the owner’s, communication was very good and thorough. He took the time to go through and explain the vehicles functions really well prior to our journey. If we had any problems at all Dusan was very quick to respond. The vehicle drives really well and has all of the facilities required to live comfortably. We cooked each day in the van and enjoyed the spacious interior to relax of an evening. There is plenty of space inside the van and would be suitable for a couple on holidays or a small family. We would recommend this van to anyone that is planning on road tripping through north Italy.
