Compare campervan rentals all around the world
Easy to use with no booking fees.
Road Genius compares campervan rentals across Italy so you can see prices, vehicle layouts and insurance in one place. Most international travelers start in Milan, Rome, Venice or Florence because these cities have large rental depots and major airports. Italy is compact, so you can cross the country in a day, but plan extra time for mountain or coastal roads in peak season.
Campervan rental costs in Italy depend on factors like camper size, age, features, booking duration, season, and pick-up/drop-off locations.
Daily rates typically range from €150 to €280. During the high season, which includes the summer months, you can expect the cost to range from €150 to €220 per day in July and possibly up to €280 or more per day in August. However, prices can be lower during the off-peak season, which includes the colder months. It's also worth noting that camper rental companies can sell out quickly during high seasons, so early booking is advisable to secure the best deals and ensure availability.
Check current rates using our search tool for the most accurate pricing. Don't forget to consider additional costs such as fuel, campsite fees, and any extras like GPS or additional drivers.

Autostrade are toll motorways. Take a ticket at the entrance and pay at exit, or use the electronic Telepass lane if your rental includes a device.

Many city centers have ZTL (limited traffic zones). Entering without a permit creates an automatic fine that is sent to the rental company.
From 15 November to 15 April several northern regions require winter tires or snow chains. Police can fine drivers or turn them back at mountain passes.
