Read the answers to frequently asked questions about USA

RVs in USA usually cost - per day
A credit card is required for the deposit in most cases. The deposit amount will be blocked on the credit card on site and unblocked when the campervan is properly returned.
Please use our filters on the search results page. With the filter you can filter out providers that allow you to bring pets.
You are generally free to wild camp in national forests and grasslands unless marked (rules may vary from place to place), in other words you can technically camp anywhere outside campsites/campgrounds.
This depends on the rental company. Most rental companies allow use from the age of 18. Please check the rental conditions of the rental company on the details page
This is allowed in principle, as long as the instructions for the safe fastening of the child are followed.
Having the right licence in one state usually permits you to drive lawfully in evry other state, however some states apply driving limitations to out of state drivers/tourists.
In the USA, RVing is actually quite the safe way to travel so long as you follow the general guidelines, as campgrounds don't tend to attract much criminal elements and campervans don't usually rank high in terms of targets to steal from.
You can use your standard driving licence as long as it covers Class B. Larger motorhomes require a Class C. You must take an international driving licence as some States require it. Driving licences have to be in English, or have a certified English translation.
The speed limits for campervans in the USA vary from state to state, that's why the golden rule is just to follow the posted speed limits on the road to avoid any mistakes (we recommend some research be done in advance for the state(s) you will be crossing in your trip).
Booking a campsite in the United States can be done in various ways, depending on your preference and campsite availability. Here are a few possible steps you can follow: Online reservation platforms, by phone, campground websites, and in person. When booking a campsite, it's important to have your stay dates, the number of people, and any special requirements (such as the need for electricity for a camper) at hand. It's also recommended to check in advance for any restrictions or special requirements for the campsite you plan to visit, especially when it comes to popular destinations or national parks.
There are many stunning national parks in the United States that are definitely worth visiting during your RV trip.

Important information and facts about USA

General

A road trip across the U.S. is on the bucket lists of many camping enthusiasts. But for most, this trip has been a dream that has been difficult to realise. It doesn't have to be!

With Campstar, it's easy to rent an RV in the U.S. and make that long-awaited road trip a reality.

The diversity of the different regions is unique in the U.S.. In the north-east of the country New England with its deep forests, sun-drenched Florida in the south-east, the wild Rocky Mountains in the mid-west or the "Golden State" California on the Pacific, each region of the U.S. impresses with different geographical features.

Getting to know all this diversity in a two-week holiday does not do justice to the diversity of the country. If you are planning to rent an RV in the U.S., you should pick a few destinations that interest you the most and plan your tour in these regions.

With an RV, you are of course mobile and flexible, but you must bear in mind that an east-west crossing of the U.S. alone covers around 4,500 km and four time zones. So that you can really enjoy your road trip and have enough time to admire the exciting natural spectacles and landscapes, you should not plan too many kilometres per day.

One of the great advantages of renting your RV through Campstar and travelling the U.S. is that you have the option of renting your RV in different locations. For example, you can travel by plane to New York, pick up your RV there and take a road trip along the East Coast to Florida. Drop off your camper in Jacksonville or Miami and fly to San Francisco or Los Angeles, where your next RV is already waiting for you. This way, you can visit exactly the regions that interest you personally, without spending time in areas that are a lower priority for you. The great flexibility is one of the biggest advantages of renting an RV on your holiday.

Climate

As different as the regions in the U.S. are, so is the climate:

  • Due to its proximity to the Pacific coast, California is characterised by a Mediterranean climate. Winters are rainy and mild, summers dry and hot. As a result, there are frequent and sometimes severe forest fires in the summer months.
  • The Midwest has a mostly hot, dry steppe climate, although the Rocky Mountains with their high mountain ranges are of course climatically very different from the desert areas (Death Valley, for example).
  • In the south-east of the U.S. , from Texas via Mississippi to Florida, the climate is subtropical. Winters are relatively mild, temperatures below freezing are rarely reached even in the winter months. Rain also falls regularly in summer, with temperatures averaging around 30°C in the summer months.
  • South Florida, including the Keys island chain, has a tropical climate with hot summers and sometimes severe hurricanes between June and November.
  • The climate in the far north and north-east of the U.S., from Washington State across the Great Lakes on the Canadian border to the Atlantic coast and New York, can be described as temperate continental, characterised by cool winters and warm, dry summers.

When planning your road trip through the U.S., be sure to find out in advance about the exact climatic characteristics of your destination and rent a suitable RV. Depending on where you plan to travel, other features may be important when choosing the camper you want to rent. A four-wheel drive is not necessary everywhere, in some places you will appreciate a very good air conditioning system and in others a parking heater in your RV.

Popular destinations in the U.S.

When planning your trip to the U.S., anyone you ask will probably give you different tips. But some names will come up more often. The famous Route 66, for example, is listed in every guidebook for road trips and camping trips with RVs, and has not lost its appeal even after decades. It is probably impossible to list all the sights in the U.S., so here is just a small selection of possible itineraries through the land of opportunity.

Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica in California was one of the longest highways in the U.S., covering almost 4,000 kilometres. It was opened as early as 1926 and was one of the first continuously paved roads to the West Coast. Due to the construction of the multi-lane Interstates, several bypasses and many alterations to the route, Route 66 is no longer continuously passable today and is also designated differently on some sections. Nevertheless, the magic of this historic route remains in many places. If you want to rent an RV and drive the entire Route 66, you should plan at least ten days for each direction, better two or even three weeks. However, you can also choose to drive only a part of the route.

The starting point of Route 66 is Chicago. You can travel here by plane. You can rent your RV in advance through Campstar and arrange the ideal place and time for the handover. From the metropolis on Lake Michigan, you start your road trip south through bright green Illinois. Green corn and soybean fields stretch as far as the eye can see to the right and left of the road. You already pass the first lovingly restored petrol stations, motels and diners in the style of the 1940s and 1950s with the elaborate neon signs that are so typical of Route 66.

Crossing the Mississippi River, you will reach St. Louis. Here you can make your first major stopover, rent a place for your RV at the campground and immerse yourself in the vibrant nightlife and the wide range of cultural institutions. A visit to the legendary Gateway Arch, which symbolises the gateway to the West, is a must when visiting St. Louis. The course of Route 66 leads you further through Missouri to Oklahoma. The further south and west you go, the more the landscape changes along the road. The green fields gradually recede to make way for the vast desert landscapes of northern Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. The endless expanse and the dead straight course of the road make Route 66 so unique.

In northern Arizona you will reach the city of Flagstaff, which is considered the gateway to the Grand Canyon. You can also reach Flagstaff by plane. If you don't want to drive the entire Route 66 by camper, you can start here and rent your RV in Flagstaff. From here you can take your RV or caravan on a trip to the Grand Canyon and marvel at the majesty of one of the deepest canyons in the world. The bizarre shapes, seemingly endless dimensions and the unbelievably many colours of the different rock layers make the Grand Canyon one of the most popular tourist magnets in the U.S.. To experience the national park in all its diversity, you should plan several days for a visit to the Grand Canyon. There are several campgrounds around the canyon where you can rent a site and park your RV.

After visiting the Grand Canyon, you can decide whether to return to Flagstaff to continue along Route 66, or whether you want to make a detour to Las Vegas. The largest city in Nevada is famous for its numerous casinos and shows. The world-famous casinos on the Strip almost all have their own theme in which they are built and furnished. For example, the "Luxor", which is shaped like a pyramid and decorated in Egyptian style, or the "Paris", for which an Eiffel Tower was built.

A visit to Las Vegas is an unforgettable experience, even if you don't plan to bet your entire holiday budget on gambling. Besides the Strip and the sights in downtown Las Vegas, the city also has scenic highlights to offer. The Red Rock Canyon National Park a few kilometres west of the dazzling desert metropolis is worth a visit for nature lovers. You can hike, climb or mountain bike in the bright red rocks. South of the city lies Lake Mead National Park. There are several large campsites here where you can rent a pitch for your RV and go swimming, on boat trips or hiking.

From Las Vegas you can drive south in your RV and from Kingman follow Route 66 all the way to California. In Santa Monica, after about 4000 kilometres, you will reach the bright blue Pacific Ocean. Here you can rent a campsite and end your road trip on the magnificent Pacific beach. A detour to Los Angeles is also worthwhile. A photo of the gigantic Hollywood sign, a tour of Beverly Hills or a walk along the Walk of Fame are very popular excursions.

Of course, you can also extend your road trip a little further. California offers visitors so much more than just Hollywood. If you want to concentrate your trip on the "Golden State", you can also travel by plane directly to Los Angeles or San Francisco and rent your RV or caravan from here. This way you can start your dream holiday with a camper right away on the sun-drenched Pacific coast.

California's diverse landscape includes, among other things, Mount Whitney, the highest mountain in the U.S.(outside Alaska) at over 4000 metres, in the middle of the Sierra Nevada. Only about 100 kilometres to the southeast is Death Valley, the lowest and hottest place in the U.S.. The Sierra Nevada mountain range stretches for 650 kilometres parallel to the Pacific coast. On its western foothills lies the world-famous Yosemite National Park. The huge, centuries-old redwood trees, impressive waterfalls and granite rocks attract around four million visitors every year. If you're planning a stopover here with your RV, be sure to rent a site in advance. Spaces at the nearby campgrounds are limited and book up quickly.

Even beyond the famous Route 66 or versatile holiday destinations like California, the U.S. is a very diverse travel destination. Especially for nature-loving campers, Yellowstone National Park in the state of Wyoming is an exciting destination. Not only are the big wild animals like grizzly bears at home here, there are also many geysers and other springs to marvel at. The Yellowstone volcano is the largest volcano on the entire continent and is still active today.

Other popular attractions in the U.S. include the Great Lakes in the north-east of the country. If you are planning to rent an RV in the U.S., you can also enjoy the incomparable landscapes around the lakes on a road trip. If you are travelling with your children, a tour that takes you through Florida is a good idea. A visit to Disney World in Orlando, Florida will not only make children's eyes light up. This excursion can also be combined with a tour through the Everglades and to the Florida Keys. The diverse nature of the subtropical wetlands extends over more than 5,000 square kilometres in southern Florida and can be explored on a hike or on an impressive boat tour.

Good to know

If you are planning to rent an RV in the U.S., it is important to know that you need a tourist visa ("Visitor B Visa") or must participate in the "Visa Waiver Program" to enter the U.S.. To participate, you must first register in the electronic travel authorisation system "ESTA" with your electronic passport and provide proof of a return ticket. You should find out about the exact requirements, procedures and costs in detail online as part of your travel planning, as these may change.

You do not need an international driving licence to rent an RV in the U.S.. Your German Class 3 or B driving licence is also recognised in the U.S..

Wild camping is prohibited almost everywhere in the U.S.. The only exceptions are in some national parks. Some supermarkets or gas stations allow campers to spend a night in their car parks. Farmers also sometimes offer RV sites for rent on their property. To be on the safe side, you should always check with the owner before you park your RV or caravan on a site.

However, there are also numerous beautiful and well-maintained campgrounds in the U.S.. The state campgrounds are usually located in the immediate vicinity of national parks or popular sights and are often cheaper than privately run campgrounds. That's why they are booked up quickly during holiday periods. If you know in advance that you want to stay at a special place, it is best to book early and reserve a place.

When planning to rent an RV in the U.S., you don't need to worry about food and fuel supplies. There are no standard opening hours in the U.S., so many supermarkets, especially in the larger cities, are open around the clock. In more rural areas this is rare, but smaller shops are open until 6pm. When shopping, you should note that the prices listed are often net prices, which means that the VAT is calculated at the checkout. The amount of VAT varies from state to state.

Speaking of paying: You should change a small amount of cash into US dollars before you leave. You can then get more cash in the U.S. at ATMs with your credit card. When shopping, you can also pay with your credit card. In some shops you can round up the amount and get the change in cash, so there are no withdrawal fees. You should check with your bank before your trip whether your credit card is suitable for your trip to the U.S..
