Why is it worth booking a campervan in Portugal early?

Much of Portugal's population lives in the large cities of Lisbon and Porto. Pick up your RV rental in Portugal and once you're away from these cities you can cruise on empty but well-maintained roads. These take you along stunning coastlines, through impressive mountain ranges, and national parks packed with flora and fauna. At the start or end of your camper rental in Portugal holiday, spend a few days enjoying the history, culture, and nightlife of Lisbon or Porto. With a campervan hire in Portugal, you can set your own vacation itinerary whether it's lazing on empty beaches, hiking through forests, or spending the night listening to traditional fado in small but buzzing bars. The country's culinary culture is very strong and with your own campervan rental in Portugal, you can either dip into this or purchase fresh local produce and cook in your camper's well-equipped kitchen. The peak season for camper rent in Portugal is spring and summer (from April through to September). During this period, we recommend that you book well in advance to be sure of getting the best combination of price and vacation dates. You might think that booking a camper in Portugal is expensive. However, if you compare it with the cost of hotel accommodation, car hire, and dining out, you'll see that it is well within your budget. Your booking comes with transparent cancellation policies and there are no further charges should you need to change your vacation dates. The knowledgeable and friendly CamperDays customer service team is always on hand should you have any concerns or questions about booking an RV rental in Portugal.
