Every state in the United States offers amazing sights and places to camp and explore in your RV. However, not many states offer the landscape diversity you can explore in California. If you get an RV rental in Visalia, you'll be close to some of the nation's most stunning natural wonders. Death Valley National Park is about a four-hour drive to the east. Also to the east, about an hour away, is Sequoia National Park. If you’d rather head to the coast, then Andrew Molera State Park is about four hours to the west.
But first, you need to find the right size and class of Visalia RV rental so that you can be comfortable on your trip. Options for towable campers and motorhome rentals in Visalia include the following:
Class A RVs: These are the largest and most luxurious. However, it takes some prior RV experience to operate them safely.
Class B RVs: This is the smallest of the motorhomes, but these can still come with state-of-the-art amenities and are very easy to drive. Class B RVs are basically enhanced travel vans.
Class C RVs: This is a mid-size option built on a truck chassis. They are the most popular and most commonly seen as they offer a middle ground between A and B motorhome rentals in Visalia.
Fifth wheelers: These are the towable equivalent to the Class A motorhomes. They can be very large and furnished with luxurious amenities, but they require a flatbed truck due to the way it needs to be hitched to the tow vehicle.
Travel trailers: This includes a wide range of towable camper rentals. Manufacturers make them with different floor plans, so you can find one with the specifications you’re looking for.
Pop-up trailers: A pop-up camper rental in Visalia is ideal for many people because they are light and easy to pull. Since a pop-up camper is foldable, you can expand it when you park and get all the space you need.
Toy haulers: Think of these as a portable garage. You can use it to haul your outdoor gear and toys.
