Which is easier to drive into a tight site - A vs 5th?

Say both are 40ft, the 5th wheel is being pulled by a long bed dually and the A class is towing a small toad, such as a Honda Fit. Which is easier to drive into a site where you expect tight corners? ...
Class A

Drive a 40' school bus as my day job and truck 25' and trailer 36' , and the truck and trailer are by far easier to get around in,articulation and shorter wheelbase makes the TV and 5th better in tight spots.
Total length matters but so does where the axles (pivot point) are ,trailers are almost capable of spinning in their own length (not recommended)
