Find a wide selection of campervans and motorhomes for hire in South France and the surrounding area. Discover unique vehicles offered by private owners — from compact campervans for 2, perfect for couples, to spacious 6-berth motorhomes, ideal for families. Flexible booking, competitive prices and insurance included.
From sleek A-class models to versatile coachbuilts and low-profiles, there’s a motorhome for every adventure—whether you need a compact getaway for two or a spacious multi-berth for the whole family.
The campervan is the ultimate all-rounder. Effortlessly practical and built for freedom, it’s just as at home navigating tight city streets as it is exploring the heart of the countryside.
The Canal du Midi, a 240-kilometre UNESCO World Heritage waterway completed in 1681, threads through the heart of Southern France and offers one of Europe's most memorable drives alongside its tree-lined banks. This vast region stretches from the Camargue wetlands near the Rhône delta to the dramatic Gorges du Verdon, often called Europe's Grand Canyon, and west to the walled city of Carcassonne. The distance from Montpellier to Nice covers roughly 330 kilometres along the Mediterranean coast, while heading inland from Toulouse to the Millau Viaduct is about 180 kilometres through rolling countryside. Southern France rewards slow travel — narrow roads wind through lavender fields in Provence, climb into the Cévennes mountains, and drop down to sandy beaches along the Languedoc shore. Coastal routes suit campervans perfectly, while larger motorhomes have plenty of well-maintained aires and spacious campsites across the Occitanie and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur regions. With Yescapa, you can rent directly from local owners spread across Southern France, choosing from a wide range of vehicles that match your group size and travel style. Whether you want to explore the Pont du Gard, wander through the ochre villages of the Luberon, or park up near the turquoise waters of Cassis, peer-to-peer sharing means competitive prices and personal recommendations from people who know the region best.
Southern France is a year-round destination for campervan travel, with each season offering something distinct. May and June bring warm days ideal for driving through Provence's lavender fields, which bloom spectacularly around Valensole from mid-June. Summer is the most popular season — book early on Yescapa to secure the best choice of vehicles from local owners. The Festival d'Avignon in July fills the city with theatre and performance, while September's grape harvest across Languedoc vineyards makes autumn a rewarding time to hire a campervan and explore at a relaxed pace. Mild winters along the Côte d'Azur keep coastal routes enjoyable even in December.
To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travelers.
Start in Aix-en-Provence and drive north through the Luberon to the Valensole plateau, where lavender fields stretch to the horizon from June to August. Stop at Gordes, one of Provence's most photogenic perched villages, and visit the Sénanque Abbey. Campervan-friendly parking is available at most villages along this Southern France loop.
Loop from Carcassonne through the rugged Corbières hills to discover the clifftop fortresses of Peyrepertuse and Quéribus in Southern France. The narrow mountain roads suit campervans well, and you can overnight at small municipal campsites in villages like Cucugnan. A compact route packed with medieval history and wild landscapes.
From Nice, head west to the Gorges du Verdon and its turquoise lake, Lac de Sainte-Croix. Continue through Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, a ceramic-making village tucked between cliffs, before looping back via Grasse and the coastal road through Antibes. Motorhomes should note some Verdon roads have width limits — check your vehicle size before setting off on this Southern France adventure.
Drive from Montpellier through the vineyards of Pic Saint-Loup, then south to the coastal town of Sète and its lively fish market. Continue west past the Étang de Thau to Béziers and Minerve, a dramatic village perched above a river gorge. This Southern France route has excellent campervan aires near most wine-producing villages, making it easy to stop and taste along the way.
Follow the coastline from Perpignan to Marseille, passing through Narbonne, the flamingo-filled lagoons of the Camargue, and the seaside town of Cassis with its dramatic calanques. Detour inland to Arles for Roman ruins and the Pont du Gard aqueduct. This long Southern France route suits both campervans and motorhomes, with well-equipped campsites dotted along the entire Mediterranean shore.
Begin in Toulouse and head east through Albi's red-brick cathedral quarter, then climb to the Millau Viaduct before descending into the Cévennes National Park. Cross into Provence via the Mont Ventoux area, reach Avignon, and return west through Nîmes and Carcassonne. A motorhome-friendly route with spacious aires and campsites throughout, covering the full breadth of Southern France's diverse landscapes.

Southern France offers a fantastic range of campsites spread from the Mediterranean coast to the foothills of the Pyrenees and the hills of Provence. Coastal sites provide direct beach access and sea views, while inland options sit among vineyards, lavender fields, or riverside settings. Most campsites in Southern France cater well to both campervans and motorhomes, with full hook-ups, dedicated pitches, and service areas for fresh water and waste disposal. Many also feature swimming pools, on-site restaurants, and shaded pitches — a welcome feature during warm summer months.
Most motorways in Southern France are toll roads (autoroutes à péage). The A9 along the Mediterranean coast and the A7 heading south through the Rhône Valley both require toll payments, which can be made by card or cash at booths, or via a Liber-t electronic tag. Motorhomes and campervans over 3.5 tonnes are classified as Class 2 vehicles, meaning higher toll fees. Speed limits for vehicles under 3.5 tonnes are 130 km/h on motorways and 110 km/h on dual carriageways, while those over 3.5 tonnes must keep to 110 km/h and 100 km/h respectively. Rest areas with dedicated motorhome parking are well spaced along major routes, typically every 30 to 50 kilometres.
Una gran experiencia con mi familia. Joël es una magnífica persona, muy correcto. Nos explicó el funcionamiento del vehículo con detalle. El vehículo una maravilla. Es nueva y moderna. Suave y fácil de maniobrar. Con todos los implementos para su funcionamiento. Tuvimos un pequeño percance con una piedrecilla que nos trizó el parabrisas en carretera, mala suerte no más. Pero pudimos completar el viaje sin problemas y el seguro funciona muy bien.
We had an excellent experience renting João’s van through Yescapa. Communication was fantastic from start to finish, and João was always quick to respond and help with anything we needed. Any questions or minor issues we had were sorted out straight away, which made the whole trip stress free. The van was the perfect size for two people travelling around Portugal. It was comfortable, easy to drive, and had everything we needed for our adventure. We would highly recommend João to anyone looking to explore Portugal by van and wouldn’t hesitate to rent from him again.
Everything was perfect with Ricardo. Communication was easy, and they have been very respectful and arrangeant. I truly recommand to rent your car to them.
Nicolas and partner met us at the train station with their van! Both were extremely nice!, thorough with explanations, answered all questions patiently, rigorous with procedure to document the pre-trip van status and overall gave a great first impression of how this trip would go. Being used to non-self-contained van life back in the US, we got a feel for the van inside space quickly even on the first night. Sequence of cooking, cleaning, setting up the bed in the evening (and the reverse in the morning) became self-evident quickly. Sleeping surface is comfortable, and we got great sleeps after daily hiking. The van drives great and is the right size for narrow roads and most of the parking areas because of the height. Fuel efficiency is great. One potential improvement suggestion would be to have one removable screen to enable leaving one of the side windows open during the night for ventilation without ingress of mosquitos. Nicolas responded very quickly to any texts. This was a 20-day outing around the Provence and a great experience with this van and hosts.
We had a fantastic time in Sardinia, and the campervan was the perfect companion for our trip. The van ran smoothly, was incredibly cozy, and was well-equipped with everything we needed. We were especially impressed by the layout, which offers plenty of sleeping space for two plus two adults. A huge thank you to Séverine, who is a wonderful owner. Her warmth, kindness, and helpfulness truly made our experience special. We had a small challenge on our final night at the Alghero Laguna Blu campsite: we discovered the mosquito door nets a bit too late, which unfortunately allowed quite a few mosquitoes to get inside the van. For future renters, definitely remember to check for those nets early in the evening! We would highly recommend both the camper and Séverine to anyone planning a trip. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to rent from her again.
We had a wonderful time traveling with this camper van! Antonio is extremely nice and very easy to communicate with. The van was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. Thanks to the solar panel, we did not need to worry about parking overnight in a place that had electricity. The check-in and check-out process with Antonio was very easy. One thing that would have been appreciated is a couple of bath towels and kitchen towels. We ended up purchasing a bath towel (Peppa Pig themed, the only towel we could find at Lidl haha) and left it with Antonio, so hopefully future renters can use that! Renters should keep in mind that this van does NOT have air conditioning. It might be easy to overlook this detail in the description. Overall, we are very happy we chose this van for our trip! Highly recommend. :)
