Motorhome & Campervan Hire in Bergamo

The best times for campervan hire in Bergamo are undoubtedly when the heat is not yet scorching, and the city is not taken by storm by tourists. Between May and June, temperatures are pleasant, and on days when the sky is clearer, you can even spot Milan Cathedral in the distance. Early autumn is also a great time to visit Bergamo: the surrounding nature is transformed into a riot of colors and offers the perfect setting for a hike or bike ride.

If you enjoy city festivals, three weeks before Easter is the Festa di Mezza Laresima, in which a parade of floats of all kinds moves through the streets of the lower city. For the food and wine lovers, the St. Alexander’s Fair in late August celebrates the city’s patron saint. The event, dedicated entirely to the world of agriculture, is a great place to take part in tasting and exhibitions.

You’ll want to fill up the fresh water tank of your campervan or motorhome rental at the beginning of your trip, so that you can use the tap, shower and toilet. Please also empty your grey water tank before returning your campervan. The best place to do this is at your campsite, if they offer these services, or at certain petrol stations and service points. Each campervan has a collapsible canister that can be used if there is no hose available.

Before you return your roadsurfer campervan, you can refill with diesel and AdBlue at one of these convenient petrol stations near our location here:

• Stazione di Servizio IP – S.P Francesca 123, Snc, 24049 Verdellino BG, Italy

Please note: The AdBlue service station information provided is for guidance only and is provided without warranty of any kind; customers are advised to check the information for accuracy on their own responsibility, as roadsurfer assumes no liability for the accuracy or timeliness of the information.

If you want to visit the city before you hit the open roads, finding parking in Bergamo Alta could prove to be a real challenge. As in almost all Italian historic centres, most of the streets are in a ZTL, where you cannot transit unless you have a special permit. We, therefore, advise you to leave your campervan in the lower town and continue to the centre on foot or by public transportation (bus line 1).

The best solution is the Malpensata car park, on Via San Giovanni Bosco. This is a paid car park, but more convenient than those closer to the Upper Town (and on Sundays parking is free). It is about a half-hour walk to the city centre.
