Explore Romania in a campervan or van
Romania offers a unique experience for travelers in campervans or vans, combining preserved nature, cultural wealth, and freedom of movement through diverse landscapes such as the Carpathians, Transylvania, or the Danube Delta.
When to go to Romania
The best time to visit Romania in a campervan is from May to September, with ideal temperatures to discover sites like Călimani National Park or the city of Sibiu. June, July, and August are the hottest months but also the most crowded, while May and October offer a mild climate and fewer tourists, especially around Bucovina or Maramureș.
Weather and seasonality
The Romanian climate is continental, marked by hot summers and harsh winters, especially at altitude in the Carpathians where it can still snow in April. Regions like Rodna or Grădiște Muncelului-Cioclovina experience marked variations depending on the season, which influences both the weather and access to camping areas.
Seasonality of rates
Camping area and motorhome rental rates are generally higher in summer, especially in tourist areas like Transylvania or near the Danube Delta. In May or October, prices drop and sites are less crowded, allowing you to fully enjoy places like the fortress of Sighișoara or the painted monasteries of Bucovina.
Where to rent in Romania
Driving and regulations for campervans in Romania
In Romania, driving a campervan is subject to strict rules, including a zero-tolerance policy for alcohol at the wheel, meaning no trace of alcohol is allowed. A French driving license is valid, but it is advisable to have the new version to facilitate checks. Speed limits are 50 km/h in cities, 80 to 90 km/h on national roads for heavy vehicles, and up to 110 km/h on highways. To drive on main roads, it is essential to purchase the electronic vignette called 'Rovinieta', available at Petrom or Rompetrol stations. The minimum age to rent a campervan is generally 25 years, sometimes with a requirement for driving experience.
Sleeping and connecting in a campervan in Romania
Wild camping is largely tolerated in Romania, especially in rural and natural areas like the Carpathians or around the Danube Delta. However, it is recommended to ask for permission if you wish to spend the night on private property. There are few campervan areas, but equipped spots can be found in cities like Brașov or Sibiu. For connections, official campsites offer suitable services, but in the wild, you need to ensure sufficient autonomy. Wild camping remains a common and appreciated practice among locals, which facilitates integration.
Local tips and safety for campervan travelers
Romania is generally safe, but it is advisable to avoid certain areas in the south, such as some parts of Oltenia, where crime may be higher. Always inform someone of your itinerary, especially if you are going hiking in the Carpathian mountains. Caution is also advised on the roads, where traffic can be unpredictable with the presence of horse-drawn carts or cyclists. Finally, respect local guidelines, especially by avoiding approaching stray animals, and prefer campsites or official areas for the night when possible.
Frequently Asked Questions in Romania

Is wild camping allowed in Romania with a campervan?

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!

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.
