Car Rentals in Iceland

The car was fine, we covered a lot of distance in the middle of winter and there were no problems with it. The studded snow tyres gripped the road well. The car has sufficient space for 5 adults + luggage. We were met at the airport and taken about 15mins away to the hire company office, where the details were quickly arranged.

Overall rental experience was ok, what seemed like value for money turned out to be a little more complicated (ie no insurance included leaving you with a deposit of up to €700 and the staff made us quite aware that any scratch or damage will be charged to such deposit). Considering the age of the car (2011, approx. 320k kilometers/185k miles) that seemed a little off, as such we opted for the better be safe than sorry option and paid the rental price again in special insurance with no deposit. The car itself was ok to drive and did its job to get around Iceland.

The car was very good and came at good value for money. Only problem was, that Northern Lights tried to sell us an insurance on top that was more than half the rental price. Furthermore, 2,500 € were blocked from the credit card, which we didn't know before. So we had to transfer the money while we were in the agency. Apart from that, everything was great. All the best, Felix

Easy. Hassle free both on pick up and drop off

The company were excellent. The customer service from lotus was truly second to none.

It was an awesome experience. Everything was just fine. Thanks a lot.

Excellent, this car was perfect to our needs, it was in a good status, and we haven't any problem in Iceland road's.

We did wait an hour at the airport and I had to ring the office, the guy said he had been 4 times problery you need a clearer board to hold up , other than that the car was great and returning the car went smoothly and fast return to the airport.

The 4x4 that I rented was 300000 km. It was in very good condition and we had no problem. The arrival at the airport was very well organized. Thank you!

Really easy, quick and convenient service.

It was perfect, very fuel efficient and reliable. Also, Lava is an amazing company to deal with!

The vehicle was adequate for our use, the main beam was a little weak ( possibly because the age of the vehicle) but was an exceptional price ! And will be recommending your services to friends and family .

we are moderately pleased with nordic camping. firstly the staff do not smile. then, during the first breakfast we realized that the stove was not working. then the second day the vehicle broke down we had to wait 22h at the same place before we come to replace the car. the second vehicle had not been checked before we were entrusted (difficult to open the doors and ventilation problem). what disappointed us the most is the fact of not having an apology or a commercial gesture.

The car was absolutely great even if two light were on the dashboard. And the customer service is good!

The services offered by Fara Touring vehicles was decent, with airport pickup available within 15mins of a call and as early as 5am. Vehicle condition was very good as well. However, I am actually in the process of sorting out a damage claim by Fara as the right mirror was broken. It appears that the Premium Insurance Package that I have chosen was still not enough to cover this, although I was under the impression that this would reduce my excess liability to 0. The company is now charging me 162,000 ISK for a complete right mirror housing, which seems excessive.

Good car, got exactly what we paid for, good services.

The rental process was easy. We were picked up at the airport and drive to pick up the vehicle. So glad we also rented a wifi device as well. It made our navigation so easy without worrying about data usage. The vehicle was an older one but fit our needs and gave us excellent service. Kudos to Icerental 3x4. We chose to get insurance from a third party. Please heed the warnings they give you. The weather is harsh at times and they can give you great tips for handling it. Returning the vehicle was just as easy and they drive us back to the airport. We would highly recommend Icerental 4x4.

The car was great, but if the insurance could cover the wind damage during the winter month would be better.

The car was clean and well presented on arrival at the office. The staff even warmed it up for us which was very welcome

We came as a group of 8 and were told the expedition would be large enough. We packed all of us with all of our suitcases just to find out the front defrost didn’t work. We had to pile out and rent another vehicle. We ended up with a van which was way better. In the future make sure customers are given vehicles which are large enough to accommodate people and luggage

We had a positive experience with Solstice. There were a few small concerns with the car throughout our rental period but we always recieved quick responses from Solstice. The camper functioned well for what we needed it for but it was on the smaller side so we did our best to spend as little time as possible in it if we weren't driving or sleeping. The one thing that we found challenging was having it be a self service pick up, it would have made us more comfortable to go through and check over any damage to the car with an employee prior to taking it to know that the things that we had pictures of and personally noted were in their records as well.
