Anywhere Campers PisaPisaView map
Hiring a campervan in Pisa means hitting the road at the foot of the Leaning Tower, a few kilometres from the Tyrrhenian Sea and on the doorstep of the Tuscan hills. Lucca and its city walls are close by; Florence, Volterra, San Gimignano and Siena are less than two hours away, with the Cinque Terre and the Versilia beaches to the north. 3 partner companies offer campervans, camper vans and motorhomes here: Anywhere Campers, Indie Campers and McRent.
Indie Campers is based at the address of Galileo Galilei airport, McRent in the Ospedaletto district, south-east of the city: two starting points that avoid the historic centre.

Lucca is best explored on foot or by bike along its tree-lined walls, around Piazza dell'Anfiteatro. You then reach Viareggio and the Versilia beaches, backed by the Apuan Alps and the Carrara marble quarries, then La Spezia, another departure city of our partners. The Cinque Terre roads are narrow and access to the villages is restricted: leave the vehicle in La Spezia and take the coastal train.

Weather and seasons
When to go in Pisa?
Best time
May, June and September
May to June, September
highs 22 to 28 °C, lows 12 to 17 °C
The best months to leave from Pisa: long days, green countryside in spring and the grape harvest in Chianti in September, when the sea is still at 25 °C. May and September bring a few thundery spells; June is much drier and already hot inland.
High season
July and August
July to August
highs 30 to 31 °C, lows 19 to 20 °C
Peak season: real heat inland, the sea at 27 or 28 °C and the Versilia beaches packed at weekends. Visit Florence, Siena and San Gimignano early in the morning, and keep the afternoons for swimming or the shade of the San Rossore pine woods, between Pisa and the sea.
March, April and October
March to April, October
highs 16 to 22 °C, lows 5 to 12 °C
Mild transition months, perfect for the art cities without the summer crowds. April covers the hills of the Val d'Orcia in green and flowers; October stays pleasant in the afternoon, but it also brings back the heavy autumn rains, to be factored into your plans.
Winter
November to February
November to February
highs 11 to 16 °C, lows 3 to 8 °C
Winter in Pisa remains mild but damp, November being the wettest month of the year. Many campsites close: choose those open all year and a heated vehicle. In return, the Leaning Tower, Lucca and the Uffizi Gallery in Florence can be visited with hardly any queue.

Practical tips
Everything to know before hitting the road
ZTL: visit without the vehicle
The historic centres of Pisa, Lucca, Florence, Siena, Volterra and San Gimignano are limited traffic zones, monitored by cameras at every entrance. A single unauthorised entry is enough for a fine, which may arrive several months after your trip. Park outside and finish on foot, by bus or by shuttle.
Aree di sosta outside the walls
Aree di sosta, parking areas reserved for motorhomes, are plentiful in Tuscany, often paying and close to a city gate or a bus stop. In Pisa, Lucca or Siena, they let you spend the night and walk into the centre; some offer water and waste disposal, others parking only.
Toll-free FI-PI-LI, tolled motorways
The Florence–Pisa–Livorno expressway, the FI-PI-LI, is free but often busy and subject to roadworks. The A11 motorway towards Lucca and Florence and the A12 along the coast are tolled, with a ticket on entry and payment on exit. As the toll class depends on the vehicle's height, a motorhome often pays more than a car.
Luminara and Gioco del Ponte in June
Every 16 June, the Luminara lights up the banks of the Arno with thousands of candles for Saint Ranieri, patron saint of Pisa; a historic regatta follows the next day, and on the last Saturday of the month the Gioco del Ponte pits the districts against each other on the central bridge. On those days the city is saturated: arrive early or sleep outside.
What travellers ask
Your questions about a road trip in Pisa
Where can I pick up a campervan in Pisa?
Three partner companies welcome you: Indie Campers on Piazzale D'Ascanio, at the address of Galileo Galilei airport, McRent on Via Volpe in the Ospedaletto district, south-east of the city, and Anywhere Campers in Pisa. The exact address and handover time are shown in your booking confirmation.
How much does it cost to hire a campervan in Pisa?
The price depends on the season, the length of hire, the vehicle and the rental company: a two-seat campervan and a six-berth family motorhome do not cost the same, and peak season is the most expensive. Run a search with your dates to compare real offers, mandatory fees included and bookable straight away.
Can I do a one-way trip from Pisa?
Lucca, La Spezia, San Gimignano, Monsummano Terme and Calenzano, near Florence, are also departure cities of our partners: depending on the company chosen, a one-way hire may be offered there, for example to La Spezia to finish in the Cinque Terre. Any fees are included in the displayed price as soon as you enter another return city.
Can I drive to France with a campervan hired in Pisa?
Nice is about 330 km away along the coastal motorway, via Genoa and Ventimiglia. Most rental companies allow neighbouring countries, sometimes for an extra fee or with prior notice: check the countries covered by the insurance in the offer conditions before planning the French Riviera, Provence or Switzerland.

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 Pisa
What licence do I need to drive a motorhome in Italy?
A category B licence is enough for motorhomes, campervans and camper vans under 3.5 tonnes, the category of most rental vehicles. If your licence was issued outside the European Union, an international driving permit may be required in Italy. The minimum age and years of driving experience are set by each rental company, in the offer conditions.
Where can I stay overnight with a motorhome in Tuscany?
Campsites are plentiful on the coast, from Marina di Pisa to the Versilia, and in the hills around Siena and Chianti. Many agriturismi offer agricampeggio, a few pitches among the vines or olive trees. Wild camping is forbidden, and simply parking overnight is restricted in many municipalities: check the local rules.
How do I get to the depots from Pisa airport or station?
Galileo Galilei airport is very close to the centre, linked to Pisa Centrale station in a few minutes by the PisaMover automated shuttle. The Indie Campers depot is at the airport's address; for Ospedaletto, allow a short taxi ride. Tell the rental company your arrival time so the vehicle handover can be arranged.
Do I need winter equipment to drive in Tuscany?
From 15 November to 15 April, winter tyres or snow chains on board may be compulsory on roads marked by a sign, common in the Apennines, the Garfagnana or towards Abetone. On the coast and around Pisa, snow is rare. Ask the rental company how the vehicle is equipped before planning a mountain route.
When should I book a campervan in Pisa?
Several months in advance for July and August, as well as for Easter and the spring bank holidays, very popular with Italian travellers. With only three depots in town, the choice shrinks quickly, especially for two-seat campervans. In March, October or winter, a few weeks before departure is usually enough.
About us
Why start a motorhome trip from Pisa
Pisa brings together the essentials of a Tuscan trip: an international airport a stone's throw from the depots, the sea about twelve kilometres away and, within one to two hours' drive, the most famous art cities and landscapes in Italy. The walls of Lucca, the towers of San Gimignano, the Chianti vineyards and the ridges of the Val d'Orcia follow one another in short stages, leaving time to wander.
Three partner companies, Anywhere Campers, Indie Campers and McRent, offer vehicles ranging from two-seat campervans to six-berth motorhomes. Lucca, La Spezia, San Gimignano and Calenzano, other departure cities of our partners, open the way to one-way trips towards the Cinque Terre or Florence. And from June to August, the climate promises long sunny days, between swimming and sightseeing.
