Campervan Rental Avignon, France
Bonfire Vans offer campervan rental in Avignon which is in the well known Provence region in the south of France, bordering Italy and the Mediterranean Sea.
There is an international airport here, the Avignon-Caumont which is often referred to as ‘Avignon-Provence Airport’, from which we can pick you up - or come by train to Gare d'Avignon TGV directly from Paris.
Campervan rental from our Provence branch means that you start your holidays in the stunning wooded hills of the Provence area.
About Avignon
Avignon itself is well worth visiting - it is the city to which Popes fled the corruption of Rome in the 14th century. They built a palace named 'Le Palais des Papes,' or the Palace of Popes which dominates the city centre and is surrounded by medieval stone ramparts.
Set on the Rhône River, Avignon has an acclaimed bridge - sung about in a traditional French rhyme - Sur le pont d'Avignon. There are lots of lovely restaurants to choose from.
Where to go from Avignon
From Avignon it is very easy to get straight to the Mediterranean coast, just half an hour away.
Or you could head north to the Ardèche, named after the Ardèche River - a river flowing slowly through canyons, on which you can canoe.
Camping in the Ardeche is great for families.
Quick enquiry
Our agency office is in Eygalières, so if you picked up your campervan rental you would already be on the outskirts of the mountainous Alpilles Regional Nature Park, an incredible area for hiking, biking and horse riding.
Eygalières is close to Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, an old and adorable town where you’ll find all the charm of a typical Provencal way of life.

About the Provence Region
One of the most popular holiday regions in France, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur has stunning lavender fields all the way through the Luberon to the spectacular Mediterranean coast, known as the French Riviera.
The weather is typically sunny and dry during the summer months and travelling by campervan is definitely the best way to see this stunning part of France.
Known for sumptuous cuisine, Provence is a wonderful area to visit with family and friends. So why not hire two of our campervans? Take a look at our campervan rentals - the standard campervan sleeps two and our rooftop campervan that sleeps four.
Your trip to Provence is worth planning carefully as there is a lot to see and do.
Some of the favourite attractions from the Bonfire Van team are: the Basilique Notre-Dame de la Garde, the National Park in Marseille, Carrières de Lumières in Les-Baux-de-Provence, Castle Hill, the old town of Nice and the picture-postcard town of Saint-Paul de Vence.
If you’re happier cruising at leisure, you’ll find wonderful things to do in every direction - think wine tours, local cuisines, boating and hiking mountains.
Or take the more relaxed approach by seeping up the rich culture and history, or just relax on the beach.
