Motorhome travel is gaining traction among tourists in Brazil. Experts highlight the need for advance planning of routes, parking spots, and refueling. Most models require a category B driver's license, but vehicles over 6 tons need category C or D. During peak season, early campsite booking is advised.
Operator Bancorbrás and Cruise America offer motorhome rentals for trips in the USA and Canada. Minimum rental period is seven nights, and one-way drop-offs are possible.
Initiative in Maringá
Former prosecutor José Aparecido da Silva proposed creating dedicated motorhome parking areas in Maringá, Brazil. He believes this would attract tourists heading to Foz do Iguaçu and neighboring countries, boosting local spending. Travelers would stay longer and spend money in shops, bakeries, and pharmacies.
