Winter Travel Information 

   Finland | Iceland | Norway | Sweden

Q. Are your rental stations open the whole year round
Our stations in Helsinki, Rovaniemi, Stockholm and Oslo are open all year round.
Reykjavik rental station is open May 1st - September 30th.

Q. Do you have some special agreements for the winter rentals
Yes, we do. The use of motorhome in winter time takes a little bit more effort than in summer time, and therefore we have created Winter rules which we go carefully through with the customer before starting the tour. The customer will also have a copy of the rules to have with and check that everything is correct during the trip.

Q. During which period do you include winter tires on your rentals
The winter tires are mandatory in Scandinavia during 01.12 - 28.2 and during this period all our rental vehicles have winter tires.
The customer can have winter tires also beside this period but then we charge €60 to change the tires plus €5 /each rental day for the use of the tires.

Q. I'm a little bit conserned to be cold if I rent a motorhome during the winter time. Can you assure that the motorhome stays warm also when the temperature goes below zero
Our vehicles are specially planned for Nordic conditions and therefore there is an extra heating possiblity as a standard equipment. Consequently, the motorhome is suitable also for the cold winter weather and you will stay warm during your winter holiday.

Q. Is it possible to pick up a motorhome in Helsinki to visit Rovaniemi and go back to Helsinki in winter? Are there any campgrounds which are open between these two places during winter
The roads in Scandinavia are maintained during the winter and usually drivable. We suggest you reserve a bit more time to travel during winter than summer. Read more about during which time our vehicles have winter tires above. There are caravan areas near the ski resorts where you can have electricity and water. Most of the campgrounds though are open only during summer season.

Q. Do you have any winterized motorhomes which would allow to use the water system (shower etc.) in winter ? And where can I take water and charge electricity
There are restictions when using the water systerm during the cold winter months. In vehicles where the water system is heated it is the clients responsibility to take care of the proper heating of the vehicle at all times if water is held in the system. You can have water and electricity either at the caravan areas at ski resorts or at gas stations.

Q. Does the motorhome have electricity or gas heating or both ? Which kind of heating will be used when the motorhome is standing and which kind when it is on the move
Our vehicles have both electricity and gas heating. You can use electricity heating when you are connected to electricity (for example at a camping site).
Gas heating is recommended to be used only when being stationary.
