If you are flying to Madrid and want to rent a motorhome with roadsurfer, the good new is you’ll be able to travel light. All roadsurfer vehicles are equipped with camping essentials such as a camping table and two camping chairs for your outdoor set-up as well other campervan essentials such as levelling wedges and a water canister. Your kitchen is also already stocked with the roadsurfer kitchen box, a box full of kitchen utensils and tableware.

Plus, you can add additional equipment like a roof rack for your surf boards or bike rack for your biking adventure.
The perfect time to rent a campervan in Madrid and experience the city and beyond at a pleasant 18-25 degrees Celsius is during the off-season in April to June or September to October. If you like to party, May is the best month for you, as Madrid hosts numerous street festivals, such as the Fiesta de San Isidro. We recommend avoiding the summer months as they often exceed 35 degrees Celsius and are not necessarily suitable for a city trip.
Emptying the grey water is one of the last steps before returning your campervan rental from roadsurfer. This is not always an easy task as there are not many emptying areas, even in the capital city, which is why we make it easier for you with these addresses below that offer wastewater emptying facilities (please note that some service areas charge):
You will have to return your roadsurfer vehicle with a full tank. The closest Shell petrol station is only a 10 minute drive from our roadsurfer Madrid rental station.
When you pick up your campervan rental in Madrid, it is highly likely you want to explore the city before you set off on your road trip. You can park in the paid parking blue and green zones, or you can also park in a covered carpark but be careful with the height!
If you want to drive into the city centre, it’s best to park off the M30 and then take public transport to the centre of Madrid. This way, you are more likely to find a free parking space, and it will also be less stressful. You will find car parks in Marqués de Vadillo and south of the Manzanares. You can also park your motorhome at the Almendrales metro station in Usera.
In the busiest areas, such as hospitals, cinemas, or shopping centres, there are often people who will help you park in exchange for a small fee. You can decide on your own if you want to pay them, or not, but our advice is to give them a little “little help”.
You don’t have to register a toll system for your roadsurfer vehicle when you drive in Spain, and you can decide whether to use a toll-free motorway or a (private) toll road.
The private ones are marked with an “R” or “AP” and a toll sign on the traffic signs. Toll roads can be paid at the toll booth by credit card or cash. Please pay attention and do not drive through the “Telepeaje” booths, as those are only for cars with a transponder installed. You can check which ones are toll roads and how much they cost here.
Book a unique camping experience to go with your colourful campervan. Use the roadsurfer spots App to find a private camping spot on your route with all the necessities and amenities you need. Drive to the coast to relax and unwind on private pitches next to the beach or wake up in pure nature with easy access to hiking trails.
