Domestic campervan hire booming

Domestic campervan hire is booming across Europe. Indie Campers has witnessed a rise in domestic bookings in the past couple of weeks compared to the full month of May last year. We think a camping trip close to home this summer might be just the ticket!

Tourism recovery is starting to pick up locally in many European countries where restrictions are beginning to get lifted and where the spread of the virus is relatively controlled. The new travel normal may mean a shift to vacation rentals over hotels,
driving rather than flying. 

A Longwoods survey found that 82% of people travelling in 2020 made changes to their travel plans due to COVID-19, of these 50% cancelled their trips completely, 22% changed their travel from flying to driving and 11% changed from international trips to domestic travel, instead of cancelling their trips entirely.

Indie Campers has witnessed a rise in domestic bookings in the past couple of weeks compared to last year and similar trends are expected in domestic bookings for late July and August. 

Indie Campers have also implemented a deep cleaning process over their general cleaning procedures, put in place a seamless online check-in process to reduce human contact, as well as introduced flexible cancellation policies on all bookings, up to 48 hours before the check-in date. 

Exploring near home just got interesting... Here's to planning our next adventure.
