Vanyou's advice
DeKaravaning is an independent company in Loja that rents six named motorhomes (Benimar, Roller Team and a Fiat Ducato camper van) for 4 to 6 people. It does not publish prices on its website, so you must ask the company for a quote before comparing it with others. Confirm the delivery cost at the airports and AVE stations, the price of extra kilometres (300 km/day are included), the deposit return time, the pet policy and which vehicle is available for your dates: the website has not been updated since 2025, it lists three different addresses and two phone numbers, and its downloadable contracts are older versions with different figures. The photos are taken from the company’s website and several look like manufacturer catalogue images.
