May 8, 2026 Can I use my travel insurance or credit card cover for the rental?

It’s possible — but you’ll need to check directly with your insurance provider or bank to be sure. Even if your policy includes car rental coverage, make sure it specifically covers campervans, as modified or non-standard vehicles are frequently excluded from standard car rental policies.

August 6, 2021 What kind of insurance do you recommend?

Honestly, this is a decision only you can make — it comes down to your budget and your appetite for risk.

April 7, 2021 What insurance tiers do you offer and what do they cost?

Every rental includes two policies as standard at no extra cost: CDW (Collision Damage Waiver), which covers damage to the van in an accident with a self-risk of €3,000, and TPL (Third-Party Liability), which covers damage or injury you cause to others.
