Northern Lights Car Rental

in Iceland

Everything perfect

Renting a car for our 5-day stay in Iceland was hassle-free via Northern Lights Car. The car was exactly as booked (very glad it was a 4X4) and everything went smoothly. I was unaware that the car rental was not at the airport itself, but this did not have any noticeable consequence as an efficient bus shuttle is provided to/from. I can recommend to others.

Very flexible, picked us up on the hotel for free even though is was not included. Did not have any problems with the car. Everything was fine. Gave us some news about the weather conditions. See you next time. Highly recommended.

Super expérience. Très bon rapport qualité prix. Je recommande

The car ran very well, the tires were in great condition, heating was excellent and the heated seats were a great addition. The only problem was that the radar brake function wasn't working but it wasn't a huge problem because we did mostly long distance driving. I felt safe in the car because the high beams worked well and it got me through a pretty heavy snowstorm on our way from Vik to Hofn.

very good car!

Great experience and awesome customer service!

This company is fantastic. They were waiting we at the airport when we arrived. The driver was so polite and friendly and professional. Our vehicle was spotless and exactly what we ordered. The paperwork was quick and there were no hidden costs. And if I had any concerns or questions they responded very promptly. I will definitely use Northbound again. Highly recommend.

Everything went nice and quick. The only weak point are the unfortunately worn windscreen wipers. You often need them in Iceland. It would also be very nice to get some tips before about driving on snow, ice or through storms in winter.

Take pictures from all damages so you can show them after the trip, the company is fine after seeing the pictures even if they didn't appear in the damage protocol before.

We had Hyundai tucson. The car was great. Employee of car rental spoke in my language. Everything was quick and easy.

The car handled very well and seemed to do well in the snow. I would recommend making sure there is a snow/ice scraper in the car, though. The WiFi unit was a great thing! The customer service was excellent with both pick up and drop off.

I went to Iceland with a group of friends on February and we choose a Suzuki Vitara as our car.
I really liked the car, which was very nice to drive and provided us a great trip.
The shuttle offered by Northern Light was punctual and everything went right.
I though the price of the car was strongly worthwhile and I would recommend both the car and the company.

I got an even better car! Suzuki s-Cross.
Loved it!
I just wish they could credit the deposit back faster.

Everything ok,
the car was perfect, absolutely no problem f with the renting and the car
the 24 /7 services is of great help for diffiicult hours of picking and returning the car
very satisfied at a very good price

My sister and I recently traveled to Iceland and were very worried about choosing a car rental company. We had read and heard of horror stories from different companies. I am so glad that we went with Northern Lights Car Rental! They made the entire process surprisingly easy. We were picked up from the airport at the correct time. When we arrived to their facility to pick up the car they were very kind, offered us a cup of coffee, and went over the rental agreement with us. They were very helpful and even upgraded our car which was wonderful in the snowy conditions. We had no issues whatsoever. When we dropped the car off I couldn't believe how easy the process was. We were driven back to the airport as soon as we arrived. Thank you for your kindness and for answering all of our (many) questions! Would highly recommend.

We were meet at the airport and taken to the car rental place promptly. After signing the necessary documents we were on our way. Staff were friendly and polite and I am glad we had snow tyres! The Dacia was clean and had ample enough room for 3 people with their luggage.

The car I rented was a Dacia Duster. It was a great vehicle for my trip to the frozen North of Iceland in February 2020. The car was in a good condition and I haven´t had any mechanical problems with it what so ever. I would most likely hire a car here again, if I´ll return to Iceland.

Excellent vehicle , great diesel engine, roomy and comfortable, served us well in very wintery conditions.

It was fine albeit an older model with some 176k kms on the clock. This made its condition harder to assess although it was agreed at return that it was the same as at issue. I am awaiting the return of my deposit as I write.

The staff at Northern Lights were professional and friendly. The Dacia Duster proved itself well in some really challenging driving conditions. I would recommend your company for those traveling to Iceland.

Véhicule en parfait état et propre même avec un kilométrage élevé

The vitara 4x4 is a great car for Icelandic roads during the winter, super reliable and comfortable, the one we got had seen some abuse but held up perfectly.
Great pickup service and drop off at the airport and very helpful staff at the office.

The collection, hire and return to the airport went smoothly and, most importantly, there was none of the high-pressure sales nonsense trying to get me to buy extra insurance etc. Some queuing but nothing exceptional.
The car (Suzuki Vitara AWD) was a little 'tired' but it was reliable and was fitted with good winter tyres and studs. Absolutely essential for my visit as we were on snow or ice most of the time. I would NOT have got up the hill to the Air bnb without AWD.

very well. nice company. genital staff. excellent condition car.

the pick up experience was quick and easy. The rental was very complete, we had a silver pack insurance so there was no hussle about extra insurance and credit card blocks etc. The car was very convenient, automatic gear, good winter tires with spikes, extra 'snow' button in the car for better grip, navigation in the car and all very good. The information provided was complete and also the returning was quick and without any remarks.
