PaulCamper

PaulCamper is Germany's largest peer-to-peer rental platform for campervans, motorhomes (Wohnmobile), van conversions (Kastenwagen), and caravans (Wohnwagen), operating since 2014. The platform connects renters with individual vehicle owners rather than commercial rental agencies. Over 12,000 verified private owners list their vehicles across all German states and regions, with rental prices typically ranging from around €50 per day for compact vans to €150+ for larger motorhomes, depending on season and vehicle type. The platform serves most major German cities including Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt, and Stuttgart, with availability also in Austria and other neighbouring countries through sister platforms.

To rent, you search by location and dates, send a booking request without prepayment, and once the owner confirms, you verify your identity and pay a refundable deposit. Pickup happens directly with the owner, who provides a personal handover and instruction in the vehicle. All rentals include comprehensive insurance coverage, 24/7 breakdown assistance, and protected payment processing through the platform. Vehicles must be returned in the condition documented at collection, with any damage during rental covered by insurance. The platform offers filtering options for vehicle type, sleeper numbers, pet-friendliness, and price, alongside detailed individual listings with real photos and reviews from previous renters.

There is no fixed minimum rental period stated on the site, though longer bookings typically qualify for discounts from owners. For caravans specifically, renters generally need their own car with tow capacity, though some owners offer delivery to camping sites as an individual arrangement outside the platform's core system. All vehicles are privately owned and insured for rental; the platform itself does not own or operate any fleet.
