Global RV rental and road trip marketplace MoreLess
Indie Campers is a global platform for recreational vehicle (RV) rentals and road trips, with operations across Europe, North America, and Oceania. The company was founded in Lisbon, Portugal, in 2013 by Hugo Oliveira and Stefan Koeppl with just three vans. Oliveira, the current CEO, was inspired by his own van travel experiences in Australia to make similar road trips more accessible. Koeppl left the company in 2014.
The business operates on a hybrid model, combining its own fleet of over 10,000 campervans and motorhomes with a peer-to-peer marketplace that allows private and professional hosts to list their vehicles. This structure provides a wide geographical coverage, with a presence in over 100 cities. The platform offers a range of services including short-term rentals, long-term subscriptions, and the sale of new and used vehicles. Its primary clients are travelers from over 180 countries seeking flexible and personalized road trip experiences.
Financially, Indie Campers has demonstrated significant growth, backed by several funding rounds. Over 2024 and 2025, the company raised a total of €62.5 million to fuel platform development and global expansion. This includes a €35 million round in July 2024 and a subsequent €27.5 million tranche in May 2025, with Indico Capital Partners as a lead investor. In February 2026, Indie Campers acquired Just Go and Bunk Campers, the European brands of Tourism Holdings Limited (THL), to strengthen its position in the UK and Ireland.
The company's digital-first approach provides a streamlined online experience for booking and managing trips. For its own fleet, Indie Campers offers features like one-way trips, 24/7 support, and inclusive kits for bedding and cooking. The marketplace expands vehicle availability and allows the company to scale its operations efficiently. The company is positioned within the growing global RV rental market, which was valued at over $2 billion in 2024 and is projected to expand significantly.
