Campervan Hire in Konstanz

Constance - the city is unique, it lies in the direct vicinity of Switzerland and yet still counts as part of Germany. A giant figure, the Imperia, stands in the harbour and welcomes its guests who reach the city by boat. The Seelife is one of the most famous local attractions.

There are a few things to bear in mind when renting a campervan in Constance. It can often happen that you want to enter Austria and Switzerland, as you are right in the three-country corner. When booking, it is therefore important to take out certain entry insurances for both Austria and Switzerland. This is the only way to ensure that if you visit the respective countries and have an accident with the campervan from Constance, you are also insured. Switzerland in particular has its own conditions, as it is not part of the EU. You can easily visit Constance by train. Trains from Switzerland and Germany pass through here. You can easily get here from Frankfurt or Munich. You will only find a larger airport in Basel or Zurich, but then you will have to travel further by train to pick up your campervan in Constance. In Austria and Switzerland there are tolls on the motorways, so if you are not driving too far into the country with your campervan, it is advisable to stay on the country roads, as these can be used free of charge. Your campervan rental in Constance will therefore be a special challenge.
