How to Get to Mainz to Pick Up Your Campervan

Getting to Mainz to start your adventure is incredibly convenient, especially for international travelers from the UK, Ireland, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.
By Air (Recommended):
The best and easiest way is to fly into Frankfurt Airport (FRA). FRA is one of the largest and best-connected airports in the world, located just 25 minutes from Mainz.
- Direct Flights: You'll find numerous direct flights to Frankfurt from major international hubs like London (LHR), Dublin (DUB), New York (JFK), Chicago (ORD), Toronto (YYZ), and Johannesburg (JNB).
- Connecting Flights: For travelers from Australia (e.g., Sydney, Melbourne) and New Zealand (e.g., Auckland), a one-stop flight via major hubs in the Middle East (like Dubai or Doha) or Asia (like Singapore) is the most common and efficient route to Frankfurt.
From Frankfurt Airport to Mainz:
Once you land at FRA, getting to Mainz is simple. Head to the regional train station (Regionalbahnhof) located directly within the airport terminal. From there, the S-Bahn train (line S8) runs directly to Mainz Hauptbahnhof (main station) every 30 minutes. The journey is quick, scenic, and very efficient – the perfect, stress-free start before you rent a campervan in Mainz.
By Train or Car:
If you are already traveling within Europe, Germany's high-speed ICE train network connects all major cities to Mainz. Driving is also an option, with Germany's famous Autobahn network (A3, A60, A61) providing fast connections from all directions. However, for most long-haul visitors, flying into Frankfurt is the undisputed best option for your campervan hire in Mainz.
