Good car with every equipment (chair, table, gas, fridge..); only the Sun shades to close the windows at night are too old and ruined.

The Renault was very basic but clean and we had zero issues with maintenance or items that were supplied inside.

The service provided by northbound was great, I received fast answers to my questions by e-mail. The only feedback I have here is that the booking site could be improved to find all the information more easily. In my case it was not so clearly recognisable that rent.is does not offer pick up service directly at hotels in Reykjavik which we would have needed. The staff at rent.is was not so friendly when they handed over the car, there was no time for explanations and several things we had to find out by ourselves. The car itself was in a very good condition but the Camping unit built on it not and seemed to be older than the car. We even had to repair a broken tube from the heater during our trip. Fortunately some fishermen at Hauganes provided some materials we needed for the repair. But overall booking that specific car was the right decision and we had a great experience in Iceland and could go and stay where we wanted. Big thanks to you and your team! Andreas

The Duster is certainly a great, unpretentious car for Iceland that offers both the ruggedness and sufficient comfort to go almost anywhere. It came as a somewhat older model, yet it was in good condition and completely reliable even during and after long dirt road sections. It offers sufficient space inside, and the roof tent was perfect for us two, even in quite windy conditions. The experience only had one small disconnect, which was the timing of return. As we arrived early morning but departed late evening, there were several back-and-forth about not having to return the car that last day in the morning and then being stranded at Keflavik. But it resolved itself, and all was swift, friendly and without any tedious steps. Great experience, and would certainly do it again. (one suggestion: add wading depth info for the Duster in its configuration to the info available to drivers)

A decent, functional vehicle that despite over 300k on the clock, drove like a dream. The clutch, torque and fuel economy were great. We liked the fully functional basic camping accessories (ie. fridge, heater, portable stove and camp kit). One minor irritation is that, to get out of the back of the van, you need to climb into the front, which is okay for short people with good knees, less so for others. Because of this, our vehicle’s passenger-side head rest was already broken and just flopping around, and the centre console was getting a bit loose, given that people have to put weight on these parts to climb in the front. There are backdoor handles inside, but can not be fully accessed due to the bed frame. A solution would be to simply cut out a small semi-circle out of the timber bed frame which will allow the door handle to be levered open.

Hi, I'm Lidia, Jose's wife. the experience has been magnificent. Although we had some problems with the heating of the caravan, which were resolved the next day at rent.is. (very efficient and attentive people). the super friendly people and some landscapes that leave you with your mouth open. to end the trip, was to see a volcano erupting. this completes it. We hope we can return. Thanks for everything

The car was in perfect condition, the service at pick up and drop off was friendly and without any problems. As a minor problem, all knives, forks and spoons were missing from the camping equipment booked. The cover of the storage space under the rear bench seat could not be opened. All in all a recommendable rental opportunity

The car was great and totally suitable for as! Thanks to the team at northbound who changed the vehicle while we were already on the way to Iceland. So we got a really campervan with sleeping space in the roof and everything we needed for a good trip. Car was obviously used but ok and we had a great trip even through the highlands...

Such an amazing little car! We named her Dorothy, Dot for short, and she was such a trooper on the road!! The rooftop tent and equipment made life that much easier while we did the ring road in 7 days. 10/10 recommend!!

The camper was good with no mechanical issues, we drove over 3300km. There were a few faults not picked up on, a sleeping bag zip was broken and the 12v front charger too. Rent.is were ok but very casual to a point of being rude , not sure they enjoy their jobs!

The general experience was great The only complaint would be about pick up from airport - the mail said there would an agent waiting for us at the airport. There were different drivers coming and going and none of them even had a sign with rent.is - i had to make a call and actually get told which shuttle bus was for us

Hi It was great trip having camper van traveling in Iceland The camper I drove was in good condition without much problems and with the utilities and camp table and chair which were extremely useful. Few things that good for improving for better experience : The body of the camper van with visible broken spots but not affecting the safety, but the tyre was quite old that quite worry about on rainy day and charger at the front seat was not in order, the freezer not cold enough, and I think the space of the camper van can be transformed into more flexible compartment multiple use. Thanks

The car that was given to us was old, both doors were constantly jammed and it was very annoying. When we stopped at our first stop, it turned out that one of the chairs was broken and impossible to sit on. So we were without a chair the whole trip. Also, the USB charger did not work in the car. When we told this to the rental company, the man who served us, instead of apologizing that they gave us a bad car. He started rudely telling us why we didn't call them on the first day and tell them that our chair was broken. Do we paid a lot of money for this car and it was clearly not worth it!

I rented the VW Caddy Camper from Rent.is for my 5 day road trip across Iceland. The whole process of the car rental was so smooth. Their representative was present in the airport while we landed, and he drove us to their office. The documentation process was smooth and it hardly took any time. The car was in a pretty good condition and fueled up. Did not have any issues with the car throughout our trip and the drop off process was smooth as well. Highly recommend Rent.is

The engine ran fine, but everything else not so much. It was very difficult to put the rear seat in bed mode, the water tank was leaking, the fridge was leaking, water was coming in through the rear windows, the side door did not close properly, the awning could not be opened, it did not have 220V plugs and those of 12V were broken, the music system was horrible it only had two small speakers in front...
