How to prepare for your motorhome rental

Before you rent a motorhome, take a good look at it with our 360° virtual tour – available for all our motorhomes.

Below is a list of things you should plan before a motorhome trip, especially if you are travelling abroad:

• check the traffic rules and restrictions on your route and in your destination region/country,
• check the restrictions and any special rules for entering individual countries/regions (documents needed for passengers, vehicle, pets, limits on carrying cash, letter of guarantee, visas,…), and also check customs restrictions and special rules,
• check that the identity documents of all travellers are suitable and valid,
• arrange additional travel health insurance with assistance (Coris …) for all travellers,
• prepare the documents for any pets travelling with you (pet passport),
• plan and check fuel availability (price, access, how often you will find petrol stations),
• make a (rough) travel plan. Above all, check ferries, public holidays in the countries you are travelling to, etc.,
• get suitable maps, road atlases, lists of stopovers and campsites, and plan your stops (motorhome service areas, campsites and rest areas),
• prepare a navigation device and download the latest maps for the areas you are travelling to,
• do everything you need to do before you leave (pay your bills, leave your keys with someone you trust, turn off the water, gas, etc. if necessary),
• check the usual payment methods in the countries you are travelling to,
• take basic medicines with you: painkillers, remedies for diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting and allergies, sun protection, insect repellent …,
• do not forget things to pass the time: board games, books, crosswords…,
• And do not forget sports gear: badminton rackets, a frisbee, boules,…

Above all, do not forget to enjoy all the comfort and the discovery of new places on your motorhome trip.
