Thanks northbound for both such a high quality car that let me enjoy an incredible trip around Iceland and the customer service I received when I picked the car up. Everything was made exceptionally easy and the prices for what I got were well priced and competitively I loved exploring Iceland and mean to go back and will certainly be looking to hire from you again. The only reason pick up / drop off wasn’t perfect scores is I had a small confusion getting the number to call on arrival (I think as I booked third party) and was slightly nervous choosing the correct drop box at the end to return keys to as I was out of office hours return.

We did not get the ordered car, we got a Mazda, still 4wd but smaller driver space and what was really bad, the GPS map navigation was not updated, several times we found ourselfes in the middle of no-where. The gas was only 3/4 full when we picked up the car and at return we had an agrrement that we just returned the car(before 6 AM) and tokk a taxi to the airport, but the taxi didnt arrive so the shuttle had to drive us at 6 AM, but suddenly someone should go through the car and we arrived very late at the airport with unnecesary stress. Another thing, the thrifty car rental adress is not on any map and very hard to find, we tried tha Car GPS, google maps and apple map. Last time we rented a Car feom you on the faroy island thing whent much more smooth!

Excellent

Hi, All worked very fine. Quick car pick on Thrift. I was lucky to get Mazda Cx-5 instead. The only issue was to find the pick up point ( near bakery inside the airport). We had full insurance, hence no car inspection required (very comfortable). Return of the car quick , no issues.

Hi, actually we rent a Mazda CX-30 Manual but we got a Ford Kuga automatic. For us the Ford Kuga automatic was ok and it was good to drive and we were satisfied with the car. Still I would recommend, if sometmone rents a manual car, that we gets a manual car and if an automatic car is rent, then ghe person should get a automatic car.

Please eliminate the paragraph that begins “The shuttle will wait for you just outside the airport.” It was very confusing and conflicts with the correct information in the message from the supplier.

Yes, the car was great. Unfortunately, the customer service at Thrifty was not great. The staff did not seem to want to be there and help customers. When we returned the car for an early morning flight there was no shuttle to take us to the airport.

They gave us a Ford Kuga instead. It was a great car and we enjoyed driving it. We also rented a mobile wifi. They also let us pick up the car earlier since our cruise ship arrived earlier. It was a great experience, can highly recommend

Fantastic!

The car got upgraded to a Mazda CX-5 automatic free of additional charge. We were very satisfied with the car, it was clean and in a good condition. The pickup was very smooth, the employees very friendly and customer-oriented. The dropoff did not work as expected. Although I had booked a return at "Keflavik Intl. Airport" at 22:00, we had to organize and pay for a taxi from the Thrifty office to the Aiport, as it was after office hours. The cost for the taxi (20€) was not a big issue, considering the rental duration of 10 days. Nevertheless, I had expected different. Overall, I was pretty satisfied with the rental experience.
