Choosing the right campervan for your Milan campervan hire.
The roads around Milan and through the mountains are narrow and windy. When travelling in a large motorhome take extra care and slow down. Driving a motorhome in these conditions is not like driving a car. Be aware of the height of your motorhome and if you have rented a large motorhome with a bed over the cab be careful of the overhang on the nearside especially travelling under bridges and trees.
