- • Travelers often praise the friendly, helpful staff, clear communication, easy airport pick‑up/drop‑off and well‑equipped, comfortable cars and campers that handle Icelandic weather and roads well.

"I already sent an email: Good morning, I am writing this email to report a few details regarding the vehicle. I noticed that the license plate had already been damaged, as well as the driver’s door (see attached photos). I also noticed that the vehicle is fitted with three summer tires and one winter tire. In addition, after about one hour of driving, the tire pressure warning light came on. At the moment, it does not seem to be anything serious, but rather an issue with the tire pressure that may simply need adjustment. Another issue is that the zipper on the second sleeping bag is missing. Unfortunately, I also noticed too late that the vehicle shown in the booking photos does not match the vehicle we actually received (see attached photos). We will continue with our trip as planned. This email is simply to inform you of these issues. Thank you for your understanding. Kind regards, Davide Pedrinis"

"I was not very satisfied with my rental.The engine light was on when we picked up the car, and we were told everything was fine and not to worry. On the second day, the oil light came on, and we wasted half a day going to a garage to top up the oil. So, the vehicle wasn't checked before being returned to us, and the container of dirty water hadn't been emptied.The van's equipment was rudimentary .They also forgot to give us the gas canisters for the stove ,the USB port for charging the phone was not functional.and upon return, we were told everything was ok, but today, once I arrived in France, my bank informed me that 4500 isk were debited from my account without my consent. I will no longer rent from them.They are not very honest."

"Bonjour, J'ai eu un bon accueil au départ avec un jeune homme sympatique et compréhensif mais je suis mécontente de l'agent d'accueil au retour qui n'a pas voulu utilisé Google traduction pour qu'on se comprenne. C'est inadmissible quand nos clients sont des étrangers de ne pas se mettre à leur écoute par tous les moyens ! Tout le monde n'est pas obligé de maitriser l'anglais totalement pour voyager. Je regrette d'avoir quitté ce pays magnifique sur une frustration."

"A good and capable car. Very much enjoyed."
"De auto is ons goed bevallen. De auto rijdt heerlijk en zit comfortabel. Het bed was ook verrassend goed. Konvin is ons goed bevallen, goed geïnformeerd en snel geholpen, opgehaald en weggebracht van en naar het vliegveld."

"The experience was Amazing!"
"the vehicle was great. I had to call to get the office to come pick us up. The booking said they would be there waiting for us. I was glad we decided to return it a bit early as there was only one person there to receive the return and he was busy with another customer."

"The Jeep was great! The rental process was super easy. The Jeep was nearly new and exactly what was advertised. We were able to visit all the places in northern Iceland that we planned. The staff were really nice. We would definitely rent from Konvin again."

"I arrived in Iceland on June 6, a date that carries special meaning for me. It was also my 70th country, making it a particularly memorable journey. Shortly after picking up my rental car from Konvin through Northbound, I spotted a rainbow across the Icelandic sky. My late mother loved rainbows, and seeing one on that day felt like a special moment and the perfect start to the trip. As for the rental experience itself, it was excellent. The team was welcoming, friendly and efficient from the moment I arrived. While Iceland is known for being expensive, I found the car rental pricing surprisingly reasonable and comparable to what I’ve paid elsewhere in Europe. I also opted for the insurance package, which made the entire road trip completely stress-free. Over the following days, I drove thousands of kilometres around Iceland without having to worry about the unexpected. A special shout-out as well to Ívar, the CEO of Northbound for a personalised message. As the founder of a bootstrapped startup myself, I appreciate businesses that maintain a personal touch as they grow. Overall, a great experience with both Northbound and Konvin, and a wonderful start to an unforgettable Iceland journey."

"Everything was exactly as advertised. Car was modern and clean and service picking up and dropping off was first class. Thanks."

"I ended up getting an upgrade to a Hyundai Tuscon hybrid. Everything was excellent, brand new car. The only thing I did not understand is why Konvin spent the extra money buying plug in hybrids instead of standard hybrids when there was very limited places to charge the plug ins. The charging station adapters would not fit the vehicle."
