Disaster how many defects. Greed of the company.

We were already there at 12 noon for the pick-up. The pick-up time was 3 pm. Ok, our mistake to be there so early. But they didn't even manage to get the camper ready by 3pm. At 3.30 pm! The time had finally come. We were always put off because it was peak season. Yes, it was, but we also pay the prices for it. At the very least, it would have been more than reasonable for the vehicle to be ready by 3 pm at the latest. Lots of broken things in the camper such as the table couldn't be fixed, not enough oil, no keys included with the bike racks, toilet door broken. Front windscreen not cleaned when handed over. On handover we were informed that something had broken off the table. But simply told us to keep the broken part we found. Nothing repaired. We had to go back the next day because of the bike rack and the oil and we were made to look stupid. The oil was not topped up. And when we checked with the engine cold, there was almost no oil left. I wrote an email to Camper Day and they said I would have to see if they would reimburse me if we topped up the oil ourselves. That's why we didn't top up the oil, I'm not going to pay for things I can't help. The return went well.

We rented a camper for the first time and were pleasantly surprised by the super friendly service, help and co. Our trip went pretty smoothly and even with small defects that we only discovered in the course of the rental, there was a friendly thank you for the message at the end.

Top tips for your trip to Malmö
The best times to hire a campervan in Malmö are spring, summer, and early autumn (May to September). The days are long, and the weather is hot (but not too hot). Winter can be even more beautiful, but it's challenging to drive in the snow, but it's up to you.
Malmö is a compact city to explore, but you might stay in the city before or after your trip and then head out to the surrounding areas.
DrivingThe roads are well maintained, signage is clear, and traffic outside the main cities is usually pretty good. Even during the winter, the roads are cleared of snow and maintained, but all rental campervans will have winter tyres fitted for the months they legally need them.
The outdoorsMost people come to Sweden for the outdoors. Skanör-Falsterbo is a peninsula just 30km outside of Malmö. It has white sandy beaches and is a bird watchers' paradise. If hiking and cycling are more your thing, Söderåsen National Park could be a good choice.
Family friendly activitiesHiring a campervan in Malmö means you can bring the kids along. There are plenty of family-friendly activities to do in the area. The Technology and Maritime Museum in Malmö is a popular choice. Kids can explore submarine exhibits, try flight simulators and participate in hands-on experiments.
Best Campervan routes in Malmö
Malmö to Gothenburg
This 270km route is a good one if you want to experience two cities in Sweden. Gothenburg is Sweden's second-largest city and is a great destination for you to pick up your motorhome for hire in Malmö. Along the E6 road, you will pass scenic coastal spots perfect for Instagram pictures and small seaside towns like Helsingborg and Varberg. Once in Gothenburg, you will find plenty of campsites on the outskirts of town and explore the city at your own pace.
Stockholm Archipelago Route
Here is something that might surprise you. Sweden has the most islands of any country in the world. This route starts with a ferry from Malmö to Nynäshamn (south of Stockholm) where you can explore the Stockholm Archipelago when you rent a campervan in Malmö. In Nynäshamn, you can explore islands such as Vaxholm, Grinda, and Sandhamn, all accessible by bridge or by taking short ferry rides. It offers something different to the traditional campervan route.
Malmö to Swedish Lapland
If you want a big journey that will last over a few days, you could consider driving all the way from Malmö to Swedish Lapland in the far north. Much of this route is along the E4 highway, and it takes you past parts of Sweden that most people will never get to see. This gives you a true look at the country's landscape. Once you are in Lapland, you can see the Northern Lights, visit an ice hotel, or go snowmobiling.
Sites of interest and excursions in Malmö

Campervan hire in Malmö allows for responsible wild camping on most public land, provided you respect nature and don’t disturb private property. While wild camping is possible when you rent a motorhome in Malmö , staying at designated campsites provides access to amenities like water, electricity, and waste disposal.
Sweden does not have toll roads for general travel, but certain cities like Stockholm and Gothenburg have congestion charges when entering central areas. Your rental provider usually handles these fees automatically, but it’s good to confirm with them to avoid unexpected charges.
