Car Rentals in Iceland

Smooth rental experience with Northern Lights car rental. It was the best price we could find online. We rented the vehicle for 7 days and had no issue nor complaint about the vehicle. Airport pick up process was a bit hectic with a large crowd waiting upon arrival, so only one passenger from each reservation was shuttled to the office and expects to come back and pick up your travel companion. Northbound provided excellent customer service, I had to amend my reservation prior to arrival and their staff made it so seamless.

We had a problem with our vehicle the second day. We had a quick response and the staff moved to exchange the vehicle. fast service, competent and cordial staff.

I wass very with the professional and helpful approach I had booking the vehicle. This started online to the moment we collected the vehicle to its return. Even having to change the times of the booking due to Wow air going bankrupt after making the booking they were very accommodating. The representatives who dealt with us on arrival and departure were very helpful and offered us some very helpful tips before we set off. Overall I would recommend them to anyone ese traveling to Iceland and will use them again. I will be back!

it was very good. we got the car very fast. very friendly service. it was straightforward and very fast. recommended!

Superb experience, they gave us a free upgrade to a newer model than the one we booked, they are nice people to deal with. Before we took off on our trip, we got some useful tips for driving and Icelandic life in general. The car was in excellent shape, we felt very confident driving it around Iceland, it had everything we needed for a care-free camping trip. I would definitely recommend Affordable Campers to anyone thinking about renting a campervan for exploring Iceland. Birgir and Robert are both very helpful and will make sure that your stay will be enjoyable, the company has a very friendly vibe. Best regards from Slovenija!

The car was fine, no problems at all.

We did not receive a RAV4 - we received a Ford SUV. Pros - vehicle held all our bags and was comfortable. It got us everyplace we wanted to go. Young lady working at the office quickly changed GPS to English. Cons - tire light was on and the young lady working said it would go off and the tires were fine, it was because of the diversity of the weather. It never went off upon checking tire pressure at a gas station found right front tire had 24 pounds of air - yes TWENTY-FOUR instead of the required 44. Two other tires had 50 pounds and the other 36 pounds. We corrected the air pressure and everything was fine. GPS was a disappointment and not worth the money. We used my phone and a regular paper map. When we returned the car there was no on in the front area. I could see two men laughing and doing things on a computer in the back and one looked up and saw me but went back to what he was doing. After about 10 minutes he finally came out and asked if I was being helped and quickly jumped into action, did a quick check of our vehicle and said all was fine and got us on our way.

The booking process was very easy and clear, all the terms were easy to read. The customer support via Chat ist great, and my questions were answered immediately. I will use again northbound for my next trip to Iceland! Best regards, Ioan

The car was in great condition and very clean. Not sure what the year of the model was, but it was very new and had all the modern functions that I needed to drive comfortably. Customer service was great, I would return to Lotus Car Rental if I ever need to rent a car again while staying in Iceland.

Very good overall. I was first given car that had an overpowering diesel fuel or cleaning fluid smell. This was quickly and easily changed, though perhaps should not have been given in the first place.

Good experience - only downside was that we almost got a car without working front lights, as a replacement we got another car in very bad shape (tons of scratches) but it was fine for us. Unit we discovered that this time back lights doesn't work at all. It took additional 1h to get another car - also in a bad external look but once again - we were glad to have a working car. Last downside was that probably due to age of the car and bad shape noise isolation on driver's doors was "leaking" a lot of wind noise (minor issue). Return of the car was fast, also pick up and delivering to returning flight was spot on and without issues. Probably would use again.

It was really good. Kind people also detail explain for the safety.

Hey. W0e were satisfied. Very happy with the wi fi we got. Did not understand why the car was not clean. We were surprise that the car was picked up only the next day. In all, it was good experience. Defently will recomand in the face

Great reliable van from Affordable campers, and the owner was really nice (super chatty)... It was probably the smallest camper available, but fully equipped with diesel based van heater, good sized peltier fridge and kitchen equipment. The only downsides with this size of van and configuration is that it wasn't possible to sit up on the bed in the back (lack of headroom) or to cook in the van (but that wasn't really an issue with the number of campsites that have a covered kitchen).

Vehicle as agreed, service great.

The car is exactly what you need = reliable, clean, spacious The car has a lot of miles on it but everything seemed as good as new= suspension, tires, a/c. I traveled by myself for four days and drove about 966 miles around all of Iceland - including the west coast - through the rain, the mountains, the valleys and the gravel roads. This car is the car your uncle would lend you = Safe, reliable, and well driven but not concerned about cosmetics flaws.

Hello, All ok, the car worked with no major issues. The transfer from/to the airport was ok even when we arrived in a quite late flight. As a recommendation, the 'low tire pressure' light turned on the second day, seems it is something common on the Dacia, so perhaps if the staff can advice in advance, the user does not worry if it happens.

Al recoger nuestra caravana hubo un pequeño problema porque en nuestra reserva nos indicaban que incluía traslado al aeropuerto (devolviéndola a las 8pm)y al llegar a la recepción nos dijeron que no... Tras varios emails la verdad es que resolvieron el problema y nos ofrecieron la opción de coger un taxi que luego nos pagarían. Por ello felicito la atención de Thordis runarsdothy. La caravana estaba muy limpia y con buenos servicios. Sólo mejoraría un aspecto... Aislar de algún modo la parte trasera dónde se encuentran los colchones, ya que es bastante frío y se condensa humedad en el techo y laterales. Por lo demás todo muy bien! Un saludo

Everything was at the highest level!arrived, picked up at the airport on time, the issuance of Cars took only 20 minutes!When returning there was no problem.All perfectly!Recommend

Fantastic clean and modern car with all the space we needed for a family of 5! The service at Thrifty was amazing, very friendly and it was very easy to take the shuttle bus from the airport (it’s literally just around the corner) and took no time to get our car and also the return was fast and easy!

It was great except I never found the cruise control on this vehicle. Did it have cruise control?

Hi Runar, we did not receive a Toyota, it was a Hyundai which was surprisingly pleasant to drive. the GPS we rented was not very easy to use and often created more frustration than usefulness.

The car was perfect for our trip. It was clean and the fuel full. Thanks Regards LP
