Why is it worth booking an RV rental in Germany early?

Germany is a vast country intersected by an excellent network of motorways. Wherever you pick up your campervan in Germany it won't take you long to be exploring the forests and castles of Bavaria and historic cities such as Berlin, Munich, and Hamburg. You may want to hike in the Alps or enjoy the beautiful beaches of the North Sea coastline. With a camper rental in Germany, you have total freedom to do all this in just one vacation along with the novelty of waking up to a different view every day. If you're thinking of a campervan to rent in Germany and your vacation dates fall in the peak times of Easter or July through to September, CamperDays recommends booking your vehicle several months in advance. Being an early bird ensures you get the price, dates, and vehicle combination you want. It's not a problem if your vacation dates change. There are no hidden charges for altering your reservation. Bookings also come with a fair and transparent cancellation policy and the support of the knowledgeable CamperDays customer service team. If you think a camper to hire in Germany is outside your budget, think again. Compare it with the cost of hotel accommodation, car rental, and dining out every day, and you'll see just how competitively priced a campervan road trip in Germany can be.

  Outdoor Activities

  The best time to visit Germany for outdoor activities is during the summer months. In summer you can visit one of the many wonderful lakes in Germany such as Walchensee where you can swim after a long drive.

• 

  Winter Holidays

  In the winter you can go skiing in Bavaria or Baden Württemberg. If you would like to go skiing then we would recommend booking your campervan for January or February.

  Beach and Lake Holidays

  Whether at the beach or at a lake, the summer season is perfect for swimming in the Baltic Sea or the Tegernsee with its crystal-clear waters.

Best Routes for Campervan Rental in Germany

Here at CamperDays we have both the know-how about campervans, but also provide you with some tips on some of the best campervan routes in Germany below.

• Volcano Route

Germany isn’t known for its volcanoes, but a drive along Germany’s volcano route may just change your mind. This route connects the Rhine River to the Eifel low mountain range. Discover volcanic craters, shimmering lakes, geysers and lots of picturesque towns and villages along this 174 mile      route from the comfort of your campervan.

• German Alpine Road

This route is in southern Germany and spans 280 miles. It is the country's oldest tourist route, starting at Lake Constance in Lindau and ending at the breathtaking Lake Königssee near Berchtesgaden. The German Alpine Road is the ideal route for anyone who loves breathtaking scenery.

• German Avenue Road

This route shows how diverse Germany is. It starts in Rügen and takes you all the way down to Lake Constance. This route stretches over 700 miles and takes you through the Harz Mountains and through central Germany where you can discover the spectacular landscapes of Saxony-Anhalt, Lower Saxony, Thuringia and Saxony.

Berlin’s main attractions

A campsite near Berlin is the perfect base for exploring the city and its surroundings. Berlin has a lot to offer. Here are some of our favorites:

• Museum island

This island is located on the river Spree in the middle of the city. You can visit many of Berlin’s oldest and biggest museums here.

Apart from the museums, this island has wonderful architecture for you to admire, including the Berlin Cathedral.

• Teufelsberg

The Teufelsberg is a man-made hill with an impressive view of the city and one of the biggest street art galleries in the world.

There used to be a cold war listening station at the top of this hill.

You can combine a hike up the Teufelsberg with the Drachenberg, another hill next to it.

• Berlin Wall

Walk along the wall that divided Berlin in two for nearly thirty years. After the fall, several parts of the Berlin Wall were preserved.

Make sure to visit the East Side Gallery, a long mural painted directly on a part of the Berlin Wall.

The part of the Berlin Wall on Bernauer Straße hosts a free museum.

• The Christmas markets

As in most German cities, Christmas markets will pop up everywhere in the city around November and December.

Many of the market squares will be filled with kiosks selling Glühwein, Bratwurst, homemade goods and much more.

Most Christmas markets open around mid-November and stay until the end of the year.
