Atrae al Viajero Británico

The UK weather might be turning chilly and wet, but don't hang up your campervan keys just yet! While our beautiful island has its charms, the change in seasons doesn't mean your campervan adventures have to come to a complete stop. It's time to think outside the box – and outside the UK!

Imagine swapping grey skies for golden sunshine, misty mornings for warm breezes, and raincoats for swimwear. Europe's warmer climes are calling, and with Camplify, your next sun-drenched road trip is closer than you think.

Option 1: Take a UK van on a European escapade
Fancy the familiarity of your chosen UK van, but want to wake up to a different view? Many of our owners are happy for you to take their campervans across the Channel! This option offers:

  • Familiar comfort:Enjoy the same trusted van you've booked for UK trips, but with a new backdrop.

  • Seamless transition:Drive straight from your doorstep to your European destination. No need to worry about extra flights or navigating public transport.

  • Explore at your own pace:Whether it's the stunning coastline of France, the historic towns of Belgium, or the scenic routes of the Netherlands, your adventure starts the moment you pull out of your driveway.

If you're planning to take a UK van into Europe, always check the listing's "Hiring Rules" or speak directly with the owner about their specific terms. You'll likely need extra European breakdown cover and a VE103 form (which the owner can provide if it's a rental).
