Indie Campers Campervan Rental Worldwide

Indie Campers runs 100+ pickup locations across three continents. In Europe that means roughly 19 countries, from Iceland (Keflavik) and Portugal (Lisbon, Porto, Faro) to Spain, France, Italy, Germany, Croatia, Greece, and newer additions like Poland (Warsaw, Krakow). Outside Europe it operates in the United States (Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York, Miami, Denver and more), Canada (Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto), Australia and New Zealand. City rosters shift with the season, so always check live availability for your dates.

There is no product called "Indie Pass." Indie Campers' long-term offering is branded simply Subscription — a monthly or annual campervan plan pitched as an alternative to buying. Annual plans lock a fixed monthly rate, starting around 899 euros a month in lower-cost cities like Porto or Olbia and climbing well past 1,400 a month in London or Edinburgh. It bundles two drivers, insurance, roadside assistance, maintenance and a set mileage allowance. For a one-off trip you book a normal rental, not a pass.

Two protection tiers. Basic is included: a refundable 2,000 euro security deposit with liability (your excess) capped at 2,500 euros. Premium, for drivers 25 and over, drops the deposit to 500 euros and the excess to 199 euros, and adds a replacement vehicle plus up to three extra drivers. Neither plan covers theft or vandalism, and you can upgrade any time before pickup. Note that 199 euros is also what Premium customers report being charged for minor cosmetic damage, so photograph the van's condition at handover.

It depends on the location. Indie Campers handles distance through Distance Packages rather than one fixed figure. Many eligible pickup points include the package at no cost, which is effectively unlimited mileage. Elsewhere you get a nightly kilometre or mile allowance, and anything over it is billed after the trip — one help-centre snapshot cites around 0.49 euros per extra km. The exact allowance and overage rate vary by depot and vehicle, and both show at checkout, so read the distance line before you confirm.

Independent ratings are split. Trustpilot's main domain sits near 3.9/5 across roughly 19,000 reviews, with large shares of both 5-star and 1-star feedback; some country pages and niche sites rate it far lower. Indie's own site advertises 4.7, but that is self-reported. The recurring gripes are consistent: extra fees and damage deductibles (the 199 euro cosmetic charge comes up often), slow deposit refunds, vehicle condition and mechanical faults, and hard-to-reach support. Plenty of trips go smoothly; just go in with eyes open on fees and handover checks.

One-way rentals run between many Indie Campers depots, though a one-way fee usually applies and not every city pairing is offered — the availability and surcharge show up once you enter your pickup and drop-off dates. On CampervanPlanet you compare Indie Campers against other operators side by side, then we hand you off to Indie's own booking flow to finish the reservation. You pay Indie directly and your contract is with them; we add no markup. Lock in dates early, since Indie uses dynamic pricing that climbs with demand.
