Hiring a campervan in Bremen means setting off from the old Hanseatic city on the Weser, home of the Town Musicians of Bremen, an hour's drive from the North Sea. Downstream, Bremerhaven and Cuxhaven look out over the Wadden Sea; to the west, East Frisia lines up its fishing harbours and windmills; to the south, the Weser leads up to the towns of the German Fairy Tale Route. Two partner companies, McRent and Anywhere Campers, offer campervans, converted vans and motorhomes here.

The city is compact: a few kilometres are enough to leave the suburbs behind and drive along the wet meadows of the Blockland, to the north.

Road trip ideas

Road trips from Bremen

1 The Weser to the sea: Bremerhaven and Cuxhaven 3 to 4 days about 250 km
  1. Bremen
  2. Worpswede
  3. Bremerhaven
  4. Cuxhaven
  5. Bremen

You leave Bremen through the Teufelsmoor peat bogs and Worpswede, a painters' village of brick houses, before reaching Bremerhaven, where the German Emigration Center and the Klimahaus tell the story of the open sea. Further north, Cuxhaven and Duhnen beach face the Wadden Sea, a World Heritage Site: at low tide, the island of Neuwerk can be reached on foot or by horse-drawn cart, with a guide.

Distance

All types of motorhomes
2 East Frisia: harbours, lighthouses and windmills 5 to 6 days about 380 km
  1. Bremen
  2. Wilhelmshaven
  3. Jever
  4. Carolinensiel
  5. Norddeich
  6. Greetsiel
  7. Emden
  8. Leer
  9. Bremen

Via Wilhelmshaven and the Jade Bight, you reach Jever and its castle, then the East Frisian coast: the harbour of Carolinensiel, Norddeich, where ferries leave for Norderney and Juist, and Greetsiel, with its shrimp boats and twin windmills. The way back runs through Emden and Leer, with its old town and harbour. On the narrow dyke roads, a campervan or a low-profile motorhome is easier to handle.

Distance
about 380 km

The German Fairy Tale Route ends in Bremen, with the Town Musicians: you follow it back up the Weser via Nienburg, Minden and the Porta Westfalica, then Rinteln and Hamelin, the town of the Pied Piper. Bodenwerder, home of Baron Münchhausen, and Corvey Abbey near Höxter, a World Heritage Site, complete the loop. Hanover, another departure city of our partners, also allows a one-way trip from Hamelin.

Weather and seasons

When to go in Bremen?

Best time

May, June and September

May to June, September
highs 18 to 22 °C, lows 9 to 13 °C

The best months to leave from Bremen: long days, with up to twelve hours of sunshine in June, and a North Sea coast that is still quiet. September remains mild and drier than summer, ideal for the Weser valley and the markets of East Frisia.

High season

July and August

July to August
highs 23 °C, lows 14 °C

Peak season on the coast: Cuxhaven's resorts and the East Frisian harbours are very busy, and campsites are full during the school holidays. The heat stays moderate, but July is one of the wettest months: an awning and rain gear come in handy.

March, April and October

March to April, October
highs 10 to 15 °C, lows 2 to 9 °C

Cool, windy shoulder seasons, but clear roads and lower prices. April already brings around ten hours of sunshine a day, while October, wetter, suits short trips to Bremerhaven or along the Fairy Tale Route.

Winter

November to February

November to February
highs 5 to 9 °C, lows 1 to 4 °C

A grey, damp winter, with three to five hours of sunshine a day, but rarely severe cold. Bremen's Christmas market and the Schlachte-Zauber, on the Weser quays, draw visitors in December: choose a heated vehicle and a campsite open all year.

Practical tips

Everything to know before hitting the road

Two depots at two addresses

McRent hands over its vehicles on Adam-Opel-Strasse in Bremen, while the address of Anywhere Campers, also in Bremen, is given in the booking confirmation. The two pick-up points are separate: check your company's before booking a taxi or planning your trip by tram.

Low-emission zone in the centre

Bremen is one of the German cities that introduced a low-emission zone (Umweltzone) around its centre, reserved for vehicles displaying the green sticker. A motorhome hired in Germany should normally have one: check it on the windscreen at pick-up and find out about the rules in force.

Exploring the old town on foot

The Market Square, the Town Hall, the Roland statue and the lanes of the Schnoor are best discovered on foot, away from narrow streets where a motorhome has no place. A motorhome area sits on the Stadtwerder, on the other bank of the Weser, about twenty minutes' walk from the centre; the Stadtwaldsee campsite, near the university, is another base.

The A1 to Hamburg, often busy

The A1, linking Bremen with Hamburg and Osnabrück, is one of the busiest motorways in northern Germany, especially on Friday afternoons and at the start of the holidays. For the coast, the A27 to Bremerhaven and the A28 heading west usually flow better; check the traffic before setting off.

What travellers ask

Your questions about a road trip in Bremen

Where can I pick up a campervan in Bremen?

Two partner companies have a depot in Bremen: McRent, on Adam-Opel-Strasse, and Anywhere Campers, whose exact address is given when you book. Other departure points are close by: Langwedel and Oldenburg about 40 km away as the crow flies, Bremervörde a little further. The exact pick-up address is always in your confirmation.

How much does it cost to hire a campervan in Bremen?

Our searches in October 2026, covering two rental companies and 148 offers, found prices from €80 per day, mandatory fees included. A campervan starts from €80 per day in January and from €136 in July; a large motorhome from €100 in winter and €161 in summer. Run a search with your dates to get the real prices.

Which vehicles are available from Bremen?

The offers observed range from compact campervans to family motorhomes: Adria Matrix M670SL low-profile motorhomes with five seats and five berths, in manual or automatic, the four-seat Carado T-447, and campervans from the Compact, Comfort and Family ranges, in Standard, Plus or Luxury trim, with two to five berths.

Can I do a one-way trip from Bremen to Hamburg or Hanover?

Yes, Hamburg and Hanover are also departure cities of our partners, about 100 km away as the crow flies. A one-way trip lets you finish a Fairy Tale Route tour in Hanover, or a trip via Cuxhaven and the Elbe bank in Hamburg. Enter the return city in your search: any fees are added to the displayed price.

Can I drive to the Netherlands from Bremen?

Yes, the Dutch border is about two hours' drive away via the A28 to Leer, then on towards Groningen and Dutch Friesland. The trip combines well with East Frisia. Before leaving, check in the offer conditions that the rental company's insurance covers the Netherlands and any ferry crossings.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Campervan and motorhome hire in Bremen

What licence do I need to drive a motorhome in Germany?

A European category B licence lets you drive campervans, converted vans and motorhomes with a gross weight of up to 3.5 tonnes. Above that, a C1 licence is required. Holders of a licence issued outside the European Union may need an international driving permit; the minimum age and years of driving required are set out in each offer's conditions.

Where can I stay overnight with a motorhome around Bremen?

Lower Saxony has many motorhome areas, in East Frisian harbours, along the Weser or on farms, in addition to the coastal campsites. A single-night stop to rest is often tolerated unless locally banned, but without setting up furniture; the Wadden Sea National Park forbids it.

Is mileage unlimited?

Yes for all the offers observed during our searches in Bremen in October 2026: each one included unlimited mileage. Conditions may still change depending on the company, the season or the length of hire: check this point on the offer you choose, especially for a long trip to the Netherlands or up the Weser.

What excess should I expect?

In the offers observed in Bremen, the median excess is €2,000. This amount is what you remain liable for in case of damage, and it is usually blocked on a credit card when you collect the vehicle. Excess reduction options are often available; their exclusions are detailed in the conditions.

How do I get to the depots from Bremen Airport?

Bremen Airport lies on the southern edge of the city, linked to the centre and the main station by tram in about a quarter of an hour. From the station, a taxi or public transport takes you to the depots. Tell the rental company your arrival time so you can arrange the vehicle handover.

When should I book a campervan in Bremen?

For July and August, book several months ahead: with only two companies in town, the choice shrinks quickly during the school holidays. In May, June or September, a few weeks are often enough. Large five-berth family motorhomes are usually the first to go.

About us

Why start a motorhome trip from Bremen

Bremen is a central starting point for discovering north-west Germany. Within a day's drive, you go from the brick houses of the Schnoor to the quays of Bremerhaven, then to the Wadden Sea at Cuxhaven; a few stages further, East Frisia offers its harbours, lighthouses and islands, while the Weser valley leads up to Hamelin and the settings of the Grimm fairy tales.

McRent and Anywhere Campers offer campervans and motorhomes in the city, with prices observed from €80 per day in October 2026 and unlimited mileage in all the offers seen. A trip can also end in Hamburg, Hanover or Oldenburg, where other rental companies take vehicles back. Mild summers and long, bright evenings from May to September complete the picture for a road trip between river and North Sea.
