First rental of this type of vehicle in a professional context where the rental needs to be made from France to Canada. Many questions, and Cooldrive (Marlène) has been a valuable support to guide me in my choices. Efficiency and responsiveness beforehand, and on-site a vehicle and a service that met our expectations. Nothing to complain about. Great!

Exploring Peru in a campervan rental offers an adventurous way to experience the country's breathtaking landscapes and rich culture. From the historic ruins of Machu Picchu to the vibrant streets of Cusco, you'll discover the diverse beauty that this South American gem has to offer. With a campervan, you can travel at your own pace, making spontaneous stops to enjoy the stunning scenery, local markets, and hidden gems along the way. Whether you're seeking the serene beauty of the Andes or the lush Amazon rainforest, a campervan rental in Peru provides the freedom to create your own unforgettable journey.
Exploring Peru by campervan offers a unique way to experience its diverse landscapes, from coastal deserts to high Andean peaks and lush jungles. These three itineraries provide distinct durations and highlights, allowing travelers to immerse themselves in Peru’s rich culture, history, and natural beauty while enjoying the freedom and flexibility of van life.
7-10 Days: Classic Andes and Coastal Adventure
This itinerary begins in Lima, where you can explore the vibrant capital before heading south along the Pan-American Highway. Stop at Paracas National Reserve to camp near stunning desert landscapes and coastal wildlife. Continue to Huacachina, a desert oasis ideal for sandboarding and relaxing by the dunes. Then, drive inland to Arequipa, known for its colonial architecture and nearby Colca Canyon, perfect for spotting condors. Wrap up with a visit to the Sacred Valley near Cusco, offering ancient Incan ruins and scenic mountain drives accessible with a camper. This route balances cultural sites, natural wonders, and manageable driving distances for a first-time campervan experience in Peru.
14 Days: From Lima to the Amazon Gateway
Extend your journey by starting in Lima and traveling east toward the Amazon basin. After exploring the coast and highlands, drive through the Andes to Pucallpa, the gateway to the Peruvian Amazon. Along the way, camp in national parks and remote villages, enjoying wild camping spots and local hospitality. This route offers a mix of Peru’s iconic archaeological sites, such as Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu (reachable by short detours or local transport), and the lush biodiversity of the jungle. The longer duration allows for acclimatization and deeper immersion into Peru’s varied climates and cultures while navigating a combination of paved and dirt roads suited for campervans.
21 Days: Comprehensive Peru Overland Expedition
For the adventurous campervan traveler, a three-week itinerary covers Peru’s most spectacular regions, including the Cordillera Blanca mountain range, the Colca Canyon, and the Amazon rainforest. Begin with coastal campsites near Lima, then ascend to the high Andes around Huaraz, exploring pristine glacial lakes accessible by rugged roads. Continue south to Arequipa and the Colca Canyon, before heading into the Sacred Valley and Cusco for cultural immersion. Finally, venture east to the Amazon lowlands via Pucallpa, combining mountain trekking, cultural sites, and jungle exploration. This extensive route demands careful planning for road conditions and altitude but rewards with a full spectrum of Peru’s landscapes and camper-friendly camping options.

Exploring Peru by Campervan: Freedom and Discovery
Peru offers an exceptional diversity of landscapes, from the coastal desert to the Andes mountains and the Amazon rainforest, making it ideal for a campervan journey to iconic places such as Cusco, Arequipa, or Lake Titicaca.
Best Time for a Road Trip in Peru
The best time for a campervan trip in the Andes, especially around Cusco and Machu Picchu, is from May to September, during the dry season. The days are sunny, the nights are cool, and the roads are accessible, making it easier to explore the Sacred Valley and the Colca Canyon. Conversely, avoid the rainy season from December to April, when tracks can become impassable and mountain peaks are often covered in clouds.
Weather and Climate by Region
On the coast, in Lima or Trujillo, the climate is mild year-round, but the sunniest period is from December to March, ideal for enjoying the beaches. In the Altiplano, around Lake Titicaca, temperatures drop at night, especially during the southern winter, while the dry season offers clear skies and lush landscapes. In the Amazon, the dry season, from May to October, allows you to explore the jungle without worrying about heavy rainfall.
Seasonality and Prices
July and August, at the heart of the dry season, are the most popular months to visit Peru, particularly for the Machu Picchu trek or the Inti Raymi festival in Cusco. Accommodation and activity prices are higher during this period. The transition months, such as April–May or September–October, offer a good compromise between pleasant weather and more affordable prices—perfect for a campervan road trip without too many crowds.

Too rigid computer system
Very good customer experience with Cooldrive. I highly recommend it! Thanks to the team who were attentive and available for organizing my trip to Canada.
Great experience with Cooldrive. I highly recommend it 100%. Reliable, attentive, available, responsive. Thanks to Marléne for her support.
Initially, the camper offered online was not available, but a good alternative was quickly provided. The communication regarding the various steps to be taken is clear. The camper was from 2025 and was clean and complete. The pick-up in Norway took longer than expected (4 hours), but in the end, it became a vacation to never forget. Highly recommended!
No unpleasant surprises
Cooldrive recommended that I take out insurance, which turned out to be unable to handle an issue that arose during the stay.
Top rates and service
Impeccable
Quick and efficient response
Everything was quick and quite simple. Just a small downside upon arrival, we waited a good amount of time before being taken care of.
Perfect
Interesting price, clear file and follow-up. Very easy to get answers to our questions, very pleasant staff.
We rented a campervan for a trip to Iceland. Everything went well. Good service from Cooldrive.
Great vacation in the Baltic States. When everything goes well, it is easy to speak highly of the people who helped you. But beyond the quality of the vehicle and the welcome from the rental company, it is also important to note the support received from Cooldrive, which responded quickly to all our requests. This provides a sense of security that allows you to truly relax, knowing that in case of...
great experience! The CoolDrive agents are very helpful with all the procedures
Incorrect information about the rental dates resulting in a charge for an additional day despite my inquiries to Cool Drive right after my booking. Refusal to modify my reservation because it did not lead to a change in price. Incorrect information confirmed by the rental company that was expecting a response the next day...
The whole booking, communication, and actual rental experience has been smooth, effective, and enjoyable. Not sure how that could have been any better, at least in our experience, other than perhaps a final communication just before the start of the rental (but really, we had all info and details already). Collection and return of the motorhome was smooth and friendly staff (from iCaravan). All in...
Very good from the quote to the rental, I recommend!
Good and quick communication, easy to book and easy to follow all the instructions.
Easy to contact intermediary. For my part, a big thank you to Marlene for her availability and responsiveness.
Excellent service, speed, and courtesy
Easy communication, in French
They have always responded quickly to all my requests and their website is very functional!
Everything was well arranged, clear information in advance, and the handover of the mobile home went smoothly.
It is convenient to book a vehicle without too many questions. However, personally, I went to Iceland, and the story surrounding the insurance was really not clear with the rental agency.
Diversity of offerings, clear presentation of the site, available options. No surprises on the price; you know what you're paying for. I recommend it and will probably use it again for other camper van trips.
Responsiveness to emails and requests is excellent.
