How to Book the Campervan?

Interested travelers can book the vehicles directly on Motohom’s website (www.motohom.co.in). Alternatively, one can choose to invest in a campervan by leasing his vehicle to Motohom and paying a seed amount of INR 2,00,000. The company will further turn the vehicle into a campervan and pays the owner a monthly amount compounded with interest. During the agreed period, the owner can even take the campervan out for two trips every year. Once the period ends, the owner can get the vehicle back along with the seed amount and monthly interest.

What is the Cost of Renting a Campervan?

The minivan is available for INR 4000/day. The larger motorhome comes with a driver and an attendant and can be rented from INR 21,000/day.
