Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Italy

Italy — a country worth exploring

Italy stretches over 1,200 kilometres from the Alpine peaks of the Dolomites to the sun-soaked shores of Sicily, making it one of Europe's most rewarding countries to explore on four wheels. The Amalfi Coast road, a 50-kilometre ribbon carved into cliffs south of Naples, is regularly listed among the world's great drives. Head north and you can cross from Milan to Venice in roughly 270 kilometres, passing through Verona and the southern edge of Lake Garda along the way. Further south, the trulli houses of Alberobello and the Baroque towns of the Val di Noto in Sicily offer a completely different character. Italy's network of well-maintained roads connects bustling cities, quiet hilltop villages, and long stretches of coastline, giving you the freedom to shape each day around what you feel like doing. Whether you want to park beside a vineyard in Tuscany or wake up near a volcanic beach on the Aeolian Islands, a campervan lets you cover ground at your own pace. With Yescapa, you can hire a motorhome or campervan directly from local owners spread across the country — from Turin to Palermo — choosing the vehicle that fits your group, your route, and your budget.

Best time to visit

Italy welcomes travellers year-round, with each season offering its own appeal. Spring, from April to June, is ideal for touring Tuscany and the lakes region, when wildflowers line the roadsides and campsites across the country open their full facilities. Summer is perfect for coastal routes and island hopping — the Giro d'Italia cycling race in May often sparks road-trip inspiration along its route. Autumn brings the grape harvest and truffle season, especially in Piedmont and Umbria, while the Venice Film Festival in late August and early September adds cultural buzz. Winter is a fine time to explore southern Italy and Sicily at a relaxed pace. Booking through Yescapa's peer-to-peer platform often means more competitive rates outside peak months, and you can hire a campervan from owners in every corner of Italy.

The best road trips in Italy

To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travelers.

The Amalfi Coast Loop

230 km 3–6 days

Start in Naples and wind south along the legendary SS163 to Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello, then loop back through the Lattari Mountains. At around 230 km, this route suits a campervan perfectly — narrow coastal roads reward smaller vehicles. Allow time for a ferry to Capri and fresh seafood stops in Cetara.

The Tuscan Hill Towns Trail

280 km 3–6 days

From Florence, head south through the Chianti wine region to Siena, then on to Montepulciano and Pienza in the Val d'Orcia. This 280 km route rolls through cypress-lined roads and offers plenty of agriturismi with campervan-friendly parking. A motorhome works well on the wider sections between towns.

The Dolomites Alpine Circuit

450 km 5–8 days

Loop through the Italian Dolomites starting from Bolzano, passing Cortina d'Ampezzo, the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, and the Sella Pass. At 450 km, this route takes you through dramatic mountain scenery with well-equipped campsites at altitude. Roads are wide enough for motorhomes, though some passes close in winter.

The Puglia Coastal Drive

400 km 5–8 days

From Bari, follow the Adriatic coast south to Polignano a Mare and Monopoli, then inland to the trulli of Alberobello and the white city of Ostuni. Continue to Lecce and the beaches of the Salento peninsula. This 400 km route through Italy's heel is flat and easy for any vehicle, with campsites close to the sea.

The Sicilian Grand Tour

700 km 7–11 days

Circle Sicily starting from Palermo, visiting the Greek temples of Agrigento, the Baroque towns of Ragusa and Noto, Mount Etna near Catania, and the coastal resort of Taormina. At 700 km, this Italy road trip covers the island's highlights. Campervan-friendly aires and campsites dot the route, and ferries connect from the mainland at Messina.

The Italian Lakes to Sardinia

900 km 10–15 days

Begin at Lake Como, drive south through Parma and the Cinque Terre coast, then catch a ferry from Livorno to Olbia in Sardinia. Explore the Costa Smeralda, the nuraghi of Barumini, and the cliffs of Cala Gonone. This 900 km route across Italy combines mainland culture with island wilderness. A motorhome is ideal for the longer stretches, while a campervan handles Sardinia's narrower roads.

What you need to know about roads and motorways in Italy

Italy's motorway network, the autostrada, uses a toll system on most major routes. You pay at exit barriers using cash, card, or a Telepass electronic device. Speed limits for motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes are 100 km/h on motorways and 80 km/h on dual carriageways, lower than the standard car limits. The A1 Autostrada del Sole, running from Milan to Naples, is the country's main north–south artery and is well equipped with service areas every 30–50 km. Mountain sections, particularly through the Apennines and on Alpine passes, may include tunnels and steep gradients — keep an eye on vehicle height restrictions before entering tunnels. A valid warning triangle and reflective vest are required on board.

Nelson is 5*, great guy and great renting experience.

Luis
5 / 5

incredibly friendly and took the time to explain how everything worked, making the whole experience easy and enjoyable from the start. The camper van was a pleasure to drive and came fully equipped with everything we could possibly need. He was also available 24/7 to help with any questions and recommended some amazing routes around the island. As first-time camper van travellers, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we would absolutely do it again. It was truly an unforgettable adventure. Javier fue un anfitrión excepcional. Fue muy amable y se tomó el tiempo de explicarnos cómo funcionaba todo, haciendo que toda la experiencia fuera fácil y agradable desde el principio. La furgoneta camper era una maravilla de conducir y estaba completamente equipada con absolutamente todo lo que podíamos necesitar. Además, estuvo disponible las 24 horas del día para ayudarnos con cualquier duda y nos recomendó rutas increíbles por la isla. Fue nuestra primera vez viajando en una camper, no podríamos haber tenido una mejor experiencia, y sin duda repetiremos. Fue una aventura verdaderamente inolvidable.

The camper was exactly as expected, it was clean and everything worked as it should. It drove well and was surprisingly economical considering its size. The booking process was easy but collection gave a few challenges. The renters location is wrong in the listing as there are two Sauzets in south west France. Coupled with the renter mistakenly not delivering the camper to the correct address meant we were a day late starting our trip. A refund for the missing day was immediately agreed. In all an easy experience once the pickup location was cleared up.

Nuestra experience no pudo ir mejor. Nico es un host excelente y muy atento a cualquier pregunta que teniamos. La furgoneta ademas iba muy bien y pudimos darle la vuelta complete a la isla sin problemas. Totalmente recomendado!

Alquilé la autocaravana durante 4 días en junio de 2026 y solo tengo cosas buenas que decir sobre Rossana, Waler y su autocaravana. La comunicación con Rossana fue muy rápida desde el principio. Respondió a todas mis preguntas y se puso en contacto conmigo antes de mi llegada para quedar en un punto neutral de Puerto del Rosario. Waler me explicó claramente todas las características y el funcionamiento de la autocaravana, de una manera sencilla y fácil de entender. La autocaravana está completamente equipada, desde una decoración bonita y acogedora hasta utensilios muy útiles, ropa de cama limpia y fresca, y además nos la entregaron con tres cuartos del depósito de diésel lleno. Está muy bien distribuida; el diseño interior aprovecha el espacio a la perfección. El baño es amplio, algo muy importante para mí cuando utilizo autocaravanas. El tamaño es ideal: ni demasiado grande ni demasiado pequeña. Es perfecta para un pequeño grupo de amigos o para una familia joven. Nos dejaron especias, sartenes, productos de limpieza e incluso algunas cervezas de cortesía en la nevera. Por suerte, tengo bastante experiencia viajando en autocaravana y conozco diferentes campings y lugares de la isla, así que fuimos directamente a algunos de nuestros sitios favoritos y la experiencia fue excelente tanto con los anfitriones como con la propia autocaravana. Todas las persianas funcionaban perfectamente para bloquear la luz del sol por la mañana, había cortinas adicionales para mayor privacidad y todo estaba en muy buen estado. La devolución del vehículo fue igual de sencilla. Rossana y Waler nos esperaron en el mismo lugar acordado y parecían más interesados en asegurarse de que hubiéramos disfrutado de la experiencia que en cualquier otra cosa. Una autocaravana fantástica, unos anfitriones maravillosos y, sin ninguna duda, volveré a alquilarla en el futuro. Muchas gracias a los dos. Pasé unos días estupendos.

We can’t recommend this camper enough! The camper was spotless, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a great trip. What really made the experience special, though, were the people behind it. They were friendly, helpful, and always available if we had any questions. Their genuine care and attention made everything so easy from start to finish. We had an amazing experience and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Thank you for everything! 😊🚐✨
