Fustinoni S.r.l.Via Trento 4, 24035 Curno - BergamoView map
Hiring a campervan in Bergamo starts your trip at the foot of the Lombard Prealps, halfway between Lake Como and Lake Garda. Above the lower town, the Città Alta and its Venetian walls, a World Heritage Site, overlook the plain; to the north open the Brembana and Seriana valleys, to the south the art cities of the Po plain. Our partner company, Motorhomes Italy, offers campervans and motorhomes departing from the city.
Its depot is in Curno, just west of Bergamo: you head for the valleys or the lakes without venturing into the narrow streets of the centre.

Road trips from Bergamo
1 Brembana Valley, Zambla Pass and Seriana Valley
- Bergamo
- San Pellegrino Terme
- Cornello dei Tasso
- Zambla Pass
- Clusone
- Castione della Presolana
- Bergamo
A short loop through the two main valleys rising north of the city. The Brembana Valley leads to San Pellegrino Terme, its casino and its Liberty-style spa, then to the medieval hamlet of Cornello dei Tasso, cradle of the family that organised Europe's postal services. The Zambla Pass then crosses over to the Seriana Valley, Clusone and its painted danse macabre, and the Presolana massif.
Zambla and the Presolana are crossed on narrow, twisting roads: a campervan or camper van is far more at ease there than a large model.

- about 150 km

2 Crespi d'Adda, Cremona and Mantua
- Bergamo
- Crespi d'Adda
- Crema
- Cremona
- Sabbioneta
- Mantua
- Brescia
- Bergamo
To the south, the Po plain is covered in easy, flat stages. The workers' village of Crespi d'Adda, on the banks of the Adda, comes before Crema and its cathedral, then Cremona, capital of violin-making where Stradivari worked. Sabbioneta, an ideal Renaissance town, and Mantua, surrounded by its lakes, form with Crespi d'Adda three World Heritage stops, before the return via Brescia.
A loop with no passes or narrow roads, suitable in every season and for every vehicle size.
- Distance
- about 300 km
- Recommended vehicle
- All types of motorhomes
3 West shore of Lake Garda, Lakes Ledro and Idro
- Bergamo
- Brescia
- Salò
- Gargnano
- Limone sul Garda
- Riva del Garda
- Lake Ledro
- Lake Idro
- Bergamo
After Brescia, Salò opens the Gardesana Occidentale, a road carved between cliffs and tunnels that follows the lake via Gargnano to Limone sul Garda and its old lemon houses. Riva del Garda, at the northern tip, gives access to little Lake Ledro, tucked away in its valley; the way back runs past Lake Idro and down the Sabbia Valley, far from the crowds on the shores.
The Gardesana tunnels are narrow and poorly lit: a low-profile motorhome or a campervan is more comfortable there.
- Distance
- about 300 km
- Recommended vehicle
- Campervan or low-profile motorhome
Weather and seasons
When to go in Bergamo?
Best time
April to June and September
April to June, September
highs 17 to 26 °C, lows 7 to 16 °C
The best months to leave from Bergamo: the valleys turn green again, the Città Alta comes alive without the summer heat and the high-altitude trails clear. With 182 mm on average, May is nevertheless the wettest month of the year here: keep indoor visits, such as the Accademia Carrara art gallery, for grey days.
High season
July and August
July to August
highs 28 °C, lows 18 °C
Thirteen hours of sunshine a day in July, but muggy heat in the lower town and frequent afternoon thunderstorms: with about 150 mm a month, summer in Bergamo is anything but dry. Head up into the Seriana Valley or towards the Presolana to sleep somewhere cooler. Book early, especially for the week of 15 August.
March, October and November
March, October to November
highs 12 to 18 °C, lows 3 to 9 °C
Quiet shoulder seasons with cool nights, ideal for the art cities of the plain and, in October, for the grape harvest on the Valcalepio hillsides. October and November remain damp, with more than 120 mm of rain a month, and the days get shorter: only six hours of sunshine in November. Check campsite opening dates before you leave.
Winter
December to February
December to February
highs 7 to 10 °C, lows -1 to 1 °C
A cold but fairly dry winter, with nights around freezing and frost in January. The small ski resorts of the Bergamo valleys, such as Foppolo or the Presolana, attract well-equipped motorhome travellers; elsewhere, many campsites close. A heated vehicle is a must, and the loop of the art cities of the plain remains a good option.

Practical tips
Everything to know before hitting the road
Arriving at Orio al Serio airport
Bergamo-Orio al Serio airport, well served by low-cost airlines, lies south-east of the city, whereas the Curno depot is to the west: allow about twenty minutes by taxi via the ring road. Give your flight number to the rental company, especially if you land late, to arrange the handover appointment.
Visiting the Città Alta on foot
The upper town, enclosed by its walls, is closed to unauthorised vehicles, and the streets climbing to it from the lower town are steep and narrow. Leave the motorhome in a car park in the lower town, then go up by the steps, by bus from the station or by funicular from Viale Vittorio Emanuele II.
The A4, a busy route to Milan and Brescia
Bergamo is served by the A4 Milan–Venice motorway, one of the busiest in Italy, tolled with a ticket and often jammed at rush hour towards Milan. From Curno, the Dalmine junction, to the south, is usually more convenient than the Bergamo one. For Lecco and Brianza, the road via Ponte San Pietro avoids the motorway.
What travellers ask
Your questions about a road trip in Bergamo
Where can I pick up a campervan in Bergamo?
At Motorhomes Italy, our partner company, whose depot is on Via Trento in Curno, a town bordering Bergamo to the west. From the central station, a taxi gets you there in about a quarter of an hour, and city buses also serve Curno. Agree on the vehicle handover time in advance: it is shown in your booking confirmation.
How much does it cost to hire a campervan in Bergamo?
Our searches in October 2026, covering two rental companies and 48 offers of 14 days, found prices from €137 per day, mandatory fees included. A campervan starts at €140 per day for a January departure and €192 in July; a low-profile motorhome at €146 and €212, a large motorhome at €152 and €223. Exact prices appear as soon as you run a search with your dates.
Which models are available from Bergamo?
The offers found include twelve models. For two, the Active Classic, Active Extra and City Extra are enough; the Active First and Family Classic sleep four. The Family Extra and Family First take five people, while the Group B, C and D sleep six. The Group A and A1 complete the range with three or four berths.
Can I return the campervan in Lecco, Monza or Milan?
These three cities, less than 50 km away as the crow flies, are also departure points of our partners. A one-way trip lets you end your journey on the shores of Lake Como or catch a flight in Milan, for example. If the rental company offers it, a one-way fee may apply: it is included in the displayed price as soon as you enter the return city.

The person answered my questions before I confirmed the booking. The van matched my order well with extras. During my trip, I had a little issue that had nothing to do with Cooldrive. I appreciated that the person took the time to call me back. No bad surprises, only good ones. Highly recommended.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ — Campervan and motorhome hire in Bergamo
Do I need a special licence for a motorhome in Italy?
Not for most models: a campervan or motorhome under 3.5 tonnes can be driven with a category B licence. With a licence issued outside the European Union, an international driving permit is generally required as well. For the large family models in the range, such as the Group B, C or D, check the gross weight shown in the offer.
Is mileage unlimited?
Rarely: only 10% of the offers found in Bergamo in October 2026 included unlimited mileage. The others include an allowance, beyond which each kilometre is charged. A loop through the Bergamo valleys stays short, but a trip to Mantua or Lake Garda quickly adds up to several hundred kilometres: compare the allowances before booking.
What excess should I expect when hiring in Bergamo?
For the offers found in Bergamo, the median excess is €1,700. This is the most you would pay in the event of damage; it is often blocked on a credit card in the main driver's name at pick-up. Additional insurance, offered as an option in some offers, can reduce it.
Where can I stay overnight with a motorhome around Bergamo?
The nearest campsites are on the shores of Lakes Iseo and Endine, less than an hour's drive away, and in the Bergamo valleys. Several towns in the province have set up aree di sosta, motorhome areas with water and waste disposal. In the city, overnight parking depends on local signs: check before settling in.
Do I need winter tyres in the Bergamo valleys?
Yes, during the cold season: in the province of Bergamo, many mountain roads require winter tyres or snow chains on board, generally from mid-November to mid-April, especially towards the Presolana, Foppolo or the Zambla Pass. Road signs specify the sections where this applies. Ask the rental company whether the vehicle is equipped for winter.
When should I book a campervan in Bergamo?
Several months ahead for July and August, when the prices observed are highest and the nearby lakes fill up. Campervans, few among the offers found, go first. In spring and autumn, a few weeks are usually enough, and winter leaves the widest choice, with the lowest prices.
