They have good mirrors and power steering so are easy to manoeuvre or park, which is the aspect of driving a camper van most people worry about. Most larger camper vans also come equipped with reversing cameras, which makes things even easier.

Who Can Hire a Camper Van?
In theory anyone with a full driving licence can hire a camper van. However, in reality few firms will rent them to people aged under 25 or those aged over 70. Many also require you to have held your driving licence for at least two years. Most firms will let you hire a van from them even if you have points on your licence, but some charge more as a result.
The best hire firms include everything you could possibly need in the van. However, it is always wise to check exactly what is included before hiring a camper van.
