The rental company
Camper Travel in Bariloche, on the Argentine side of the Andes
A Chilean rental company offering campervans and 4x4 campers, Camper Travel has only one departure point in Argentina: San Carlos de Bariloche, on the shores of Lake Nahuel Huapi, in Río Negro Province. CoolDrive does not have a depot address for this city: where the vehicle is handed over to you, whether at premises, by delivery or at an agreed meeting point, is confirmed when you book.
Bariloche is one of the best bases in Andean Patagonia. To the north, the Seven Lakes Route passes Villa La Angostura and continues to San Martín de los Andes; to the south, the RN 40 runs down to El Bolsón and Esquel. To the west, the Cardenal Samoré Pass leads to Osorno and Chile’s Lake District, where the rental company has most of its network.
No Camper Travel prices have been recorded in Argentina to date: the vehicles offered and their price appear in the search for your dates.
Our view: a practical departure point for a trip straddling both sides of the Andes. The limits are clear: a single city, no recorded prices and a border crossing whose conditions need checking before you build your itinerary.

Practical tips
Our tips for booking with Camper Travel
-
Empty the fridge before the Cardenal Samoré Pass
On entering Chile, agricultural inspections are strict: fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy products and honey must be declared and are often confiscated. Do your shopping on the Chilean side, and keep the vehicle papers and the exit authorisation required by customs close at hand.
-
In winter, check the state of the passes
From June to September, snow covers the high ground around Bariloche, where people ski at Cerro Catedral. The Cardenal Samoré Pass may then close or require chains. Check road conditions the day before and keep a spare day if you plan to cross into Chile.

Booking a pick-up with a rooftop tent. A flawless experience from the first exchange with Cooldrive to the return of the vehicle, which allowed us to travel across Argentina just as we wanted: on an ADVENTURE!! This will remain an unforgettable trip. A big thank you for your valuable advice and your responsiveness. Rental company in Buenos Aires very professional and extremely kind.

The quality of the vehicle was limited, with basic comfort considering the excessive price. Good rating for customer relations, but there was a lack of verification of the rented vehicles.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ — Camper Travel motorhome hire in Argentina
Can you end the trip in Chile?
The rental company’s network is mainly Chilean, which makes the idea tempting, but returning the vehicle in the other country depends on the offer and on customs authorisation for the crossing. Enter a Chilean city as your drop-off location: if a route is offered, it appears with its full price. Our experts can check the conditions with the rental company.
What is the best season for Andean Patagonia in a camper?
From December to March, the days are long and the lakes are accessible; it is also the busiest period, so book early. Autumn, in April, brings colour to the forests along the Seven Lakes Route, with fewer crowds. Winter is mainly suited to a ski trip, with roads sometimes covered in snow.
