The car was excellent for the Icelandic roads. It was easy to pick up and return the car and. Everything went very fast. They offer shuttle bus from/to the airport which was very nice as well. The shuttle bus came quickly at the airport. They send email beforehand and duthe supplier the rental period so we felt safe and well met throughout the rental period.

The car was great for all weather conditions. Service at the rental station was great too. We had to wait a bit for the Pick up service. And the lady who drove us was very unfriendly.

Everything has turned out perfect, the vehicle is very good and the rental company, knowing that we came from Northbound, have been very kind. We had a problem since the day before our departure they closed all the roads on the island due to bad weather and they solved everything for us.

Very smooth. I got the car in less than 5 minutes! Also, the car company is a 5 minute walk from the airport main terminal so you do not have to wait for the bus. Last, it took me less than 5 minutes to return the car!

We rented the car from Lave Car Rental after compathe supplier different options. The communication was great. We got immediate response and regular updates. The pick-up at the airport was OK - but due to our arrival in the evening we had to give a call to the office. After collecting the car we noticed a small damage at the rear side, which was not recorded and noticed because it was already dark at the time of pick-up. We went back to the office the next morning and this solved. Great service - perfect car in top condition.

A huge appreciation to northbound & the supplier for this splendid amazing journey. Wanted to go to Iceland for 25 years, never had a good reason. For a new project it finally truly resonated. Couldn’t have wished for a better - intense - one driving around in the the supplier. Everything went smooth, apart for the weather which has no mercy, but Dámn that makes it all so memorable. Thank you!

Pick up, Service, Shuttle to Airport, condition of the car, everything was fine. I was given a hybid car. A 4x4 with 36l of tank volume, what is absolute not appropriate for longer travel distances and remote areas. I had to look for a gas station every (!) day. The "normal" Jeep has 60l of volume. Nobody informed me about this aspect. The car is fine, but always watching the fuel level and looking for next gas stations is not fun.

The car was nice. A bit smaller than we realized, but it worked for us. The back up camera, lane-assist, and CarPlay were huge bonuses

Worst experience ever... I have no information in the airport how to get the bus to the BSI Bus Station. The FlyBus company have few bus leaving the airport by night, the time we arrived. So I have to pay A LOT to take a taxi to BSI Terminal. The car was there in the bus station but I´m not able to get it because I must to download the Tesla app but I received NONE instructions beforehand. And the app is avaiable ONLY in icelandic phone numbers. I made a reservation from Brazil. Poor, very poor instructions. And nobody answered the phone that I had in my voucher. Waste of money and time. We leave the car locked there and take another taxi to the hotel. Never again.

Ha sido una experiencia inolvidable, en cuanto a la furgoneta no se le puede poner ninguna pega, ya que esta realmente equipada con todo lo que uno necesita y tiene una magnífica conducción tanto en caminos de tierra como en nieve, sin duda volvería a repetir.

The car was perfektly cleaned when we got it. Everything worked well. It was big enough for two persons and luggage for 10 days. At the hills sometimes I would like to have more horsepower. The shuttle from and to the airport was fast and easy. So I would rent a car with northbound and lava again.

We had a great experience renting through Lava. The only hitch was a late/confusing pick up at the airport, which is annoying when you land in a foreign country for the first time at 6 a.m. Other than that, the staff was quick, clear, transparent and helpful. Would totally rent from them next time!

The car was a large 5 seater with good trunk space, just what we needed. It was a much older car than expected but ran fine. The driver door had issues closing due to the freezing temperatures and the tire gauge was malfunctioning. The staff was attentive to the emails in a timely manner. We asked to pick up the car in the city and return it to the airport which was stated on our contract. The staff did Fail to mention that this was actually the same location. We reserved a hotel near thr Airport the last night for our convenience so we drove out to the airport area (45 min) then had to drive Back the city(45 min) to drop off the car then take the airport bus (45 min) back to the airport with all our luggage. This was a waste of time and gas due to poor communication

Had a fantastic experience with the supplier (shoutout to Remi and Klara) - super efficient pick up service from the airport to the rental location. I was initially nervous about driving an SUV but was shown all the features of the car. If we had any questions throughout the trip, they were easily contactable and queries were dealt with efficiently. Would highly recommend Lava

We were thoroughly happy with the service supplied by Northbound. Everything was very easy in terms of booking online, getting picked up at the airport and with the campervan itself. The entire process was very smooth and Northbound made it very easy to compare types of vans and prices to get the campervan that best suite us at a very reasonable price. Cannot fault Northbound.

The car was delivered to us at the airport which was nice as it was cold and very windy. The car was clean and as advertised. We were able to stay in contact with our agent via text / phone to coordinate drop off. The whole thing was very efficient. Would definitely use your company again.

Hello, I had booked Toyota Highlander from Northbound(Lotus) and had a great experience. Booking was done almost a month before the actual travel. Price was also good when compared to different sites. I had sent messages while booking and also just before my travel and they responded with right information in quick time. We were a group of 6 travelling from the Netherlands each carrying 10 kilo luggage plus another hand luggage. So this car was perfect. (Although person sitting in the last seat had to adjust as it was little congested because of our luggage but we managed) Pickup and drop from airport to the supplier was easy and quick. Car was really good with no issues. I would highly recommend to check Northbound as the website is easy to use and navigate when compared to other rental cars site.

Everything's fine exept pickup (they took just 2 of us) and dropoff cause we have to wait a little to much. But it's ok i don't complaint too much. Staff non so friendly. The big problem is the insurance system... it's not clear at all and when we booked the car with a third part then we had to pay much more without a full insurance.

The staff were very supportive when my flight was delayed due to mechanical issues with the plane and my rental was held until I arrived. The pickup at Reykjavik airport was straight forward with very friendly staff. The return at the Reykjavik location was simple and I was conveniently transported to my hotel. The service was attentive and very pleasant. I would most certainly recommend booking a vehicle via Northbound and Go Rental when traveling to Iceland.

Gracias a Northbound por recomendarnos la empresa de alquiler the supplier para nuestro viaje por Islandia. Muy contentos con el trato recibido. Los coches son nuevos ( 2022) tienen buenos precios, aunque preferíamos tener asistencia en carretera,(no lo incluyen en sus seguros),pero no tuvimos ningún problema, los coches están en perfectas condiciones y ellos son puntuales en el servicio para llevarte o recogerte del aeropuerto a pesar de los horarios de madrugada que eran nuestro vuelos.

The car was dirty. Breadcrumbs were still on the dashboard. The windows were so greasy and dirty from the inside that you couldn't see through against the sun. the car also had various dents and scratches that were not documented, getting another Car was impossible.

The car booking experience was flawless. I got continuous updates on the rental and the trip, along with useful information about Iceland. I actually got upgraded to a Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross which was a good surprise. The crew at the supplier was friendly and accommodating. I had some issues with the car tho, but that’s on the manufacturer rather than the rental company. All considered, I was happy with the experience.

The car we got was not well maintained and had engine issues. When driving >70 km/h, there was a sudden loss of power for some seconds. This could happen from once per hour to once per minute. The dashboard indicated messages to check injection system and check anti pollution system. Unfortunately we only found out after starting our tour around the island. I contacted the rental company. They offered to change tha car, but this was only possiblr in Reykjavik, so that was not possible for us. So in the end,for a 800 eur rental, the quality was not ok.

The car was very nice, super clean and worked absolutely flawless. Just a crack in the windscreen marked with a circle sticker was a bit inconvenient since it was exactly in front view of the co-driver. The shuttle service worked in time but the bus used was to small for the amount of poeple squeezed in. This part could get improved. And yes, the overall experience was very positive so we will be happy to book with Northbound again.
