Should I hire a motorhome or a campervan in Iceland?
Iceland is perfectly suited for both campers and motorhome / RV travel, with campsites spread across the country and most of them even offering waste disposal and other facilities necessary for motorhomes. Whichever you should go for, depends on what type of travel you're looking for.
For couples or small groups, who don't mind not having a bathroom, shower and ample space on-board, a camper van is perfect and affordable. The motorhome, while more expensive, is better suited for families with children or those who prefer a fully equipped RV on their journey around Iceland.
Both options afford you the opportunity to travel across Iceland's majestic landscapes with a new backyard every morning.
-
Can I park my campervan rental anywhere in Iceland?
No, you cannot. While exploring Iceland in a rental campervan provides a wonderful sense of freedom, it's essential to know that you cannot park your campervan just anywhere. For the protection of Iceland's unique and fragile environment, wild camping or parking overnight outside of designated camping areas is prohibited.
Campervan rental servies in Iceland always advise that you follow these regulations closely.
-
What should I know before renting a Campervan in Iceland?
Going on your adventure with a Campervan rental in Iceland is a thrilling experience, but it also requires an understanding of the rules of the road and regulations to ensure a safe and enjoyable trip.
Here are some essential points to keep in mind:
Fuel Up: Gas stations can be sparse in the more remote parts of Iceland. To ensure you're not caught out, make a habit of topping up your fuel tank whenever you have the opportunity.
Road Safety: Some of Iceland's roads can be challenging to navigate, especially in the highlands. Be aware when driving on gravel roads and be cautious around single-lane bridges, blind hills, and corners. It's also important to watch out for animals on the road to prevent accidents.
Emergency Number: In case of any emergency, the number to dial is 112. The 112 Iceland app is also a valuable tool for your journey. In addition to providing emergency contact, it can send your location to the emergency services if required.
Weather Conditions: The weather in Iceland is notorious for its rapid and dramatic changes, which can be especially severe during the winter months. It's always a good idea to check the weather forecast and road conditions before setting out on your journey each day.
Respect the Environment: Iceland's breathtaking landscapes are as fragile as they are beautiful. It's vital to treat these natural spaces with care. Do not leave any trash behind and always use the designated camping facilities available. Remember, driving off-road is not just harmful to the delicate Icelandic environment; it's also illegal.
-
Can I drive the Ring Road (Route 1) in a Campervan?
Yes, you can. Driving the Ring Road (Route 1) in Iceland, a popular route for those using a Campervan Rental in Iceland, typically takes around 7 to 10 days. This 1,332-kilometer (approximately 828 miles) circuit circles the island, passing through many of Iceland's most famous sights.
-
Do you offer both manual and automatic transmission for my camper van rental ?
Yes, both manual and automatic transmission camper rentals are available for hire. Your choice depends on your driving preference and comfort.
-
Are there many campsites in Iceland?
Iceland boasts approximately 200 campsites, most of which are located along the coast and the ring road. These campsites vary from remote patches of grass with no facilities to major campsites with state-of-the-art facilities. With the increased popularity of campervan travel, the number of campsites has also increased, catering to both locals and travelers from all over the world
Iceland also has three National Parks: Þingvellir, Vatnajökull, and Snæfellsjökull. Each offers unique landscapes and activities. Most are camper-friendly and accessible via the main roads.
-
Is there 24/7 roadside assistance available?
Yes, there is a 24/7 roadside or breakdown assistance available for camper van rentals. In case of a breakdown we recommend calling the number on your voucher and follow any processes you now need to follow. In case of emergencies, call the Icelandic emergency number 112.
-
Is it important to have an over-night cabin heating system?
Yes, having a camper heating system can significantly enhance comfort, especially when exploring Iceland. Given the country's typically cold climate and chilly nights, a heating system can ensure a warm and cozy sleeping environment within the campervan.
Not all camper rentals come equipped with a heating system due to space constraints. That's why, through our booking system, we've made it easy for you to check if your preferred campervan has an over-night cabin heating system. This feature allows you to make an informed decision and select a camper van that best suits your needs.
