Thrifty Car Rental in Iceland

Perfect

Car was nice and booking process was easy. We had issues with the pickup and return of the car, therefore the low rating. They came late to pick up, couldn't accommodate all of us (despite previous alignment via eMail) and there drop-off instructions were not complete (closing time not mentioned).

Northbound did an excellent job with providing our group 2 cars for our Icelandic adventure. We had 2 Ford Galaxies which realistically with luggage can hold 5-6 people comfortably. Picking the car up was very easy and there was staff there at 430 in the AM!! You can take a yellow bus which is out in the main parking lot (there are glass canopies to follow out or you can do a 3 min walk) NOTE, even though my debit card is also a credit card they will not accept it if it says "debit" on the actual card. Also, one thing you might want to consider is getting the windshield insurance, especially if you are driving for any great distance. We ended up driving over 1000km and I know our windshield took some pretty heavy hits. Also note that Icelandic roads are excellent but, with that being said, weather conditions can vary wildly (we experienced rain, sleet, snow, white out conditions, wind so hard it blew over a truck, and black ice) and there is often little to no shoulder on the side of the road. Please have your most experienced drives do the driving! Iceland is an amazing country. The people are welcoming and helpful. Utilize the local supermarkets as food prices in restaurants can be a bit spendy. Also note that the best deal on booze is at the duty free shop in the airport. Its where all the flight crews buy their alcohol. Prices outside the airport can be 70% MORE!!! Enjoy your trip!!

We had a great experience with Northbound company, nice, new and safe car, great and friendly service, easy to book and free transport-pick up from and to Downtown is a great plus! We'll use this company again! Thanks!

We wound up receiving a Ford Expedition instead of the Volvo. It was a great, safe truck but I would've liked another choice or at least a little heads up considering the fuel efficiency of the Expedition is a lot different than a Volvo. However, the car was easy to book. Shuttle service to bring us to the car rental facility was on time and efficient. Once we got to the facility the service was quick and the staff very helpful. I had a few wuariotns for he staff prior to booking and they responded quickly via email in English. They made it very easy letting us leave the car at the hotel once we were done (for additional price), but I never received confirmation that they came to pick up the car, in fact, it was still there the next day and I still haven't received confirmation even after emailing the staff. But overall good experience and I would recommend Northbound/Thrifty Car service again.

The car was clean, in perfect condition, and was great on fuel. The customer service we received from Thrifty Car Rental when picking up the car was vey accommodating. They even had a shuttle come and pick us up from our hotel and take us to Thrifty Car Rental so we didn't have to worry about a taxi. We ended up getting the GPS service and the MiFi to have internet access in the car. We ended up not using the GPS and just used the Maps feature on our cell phones connected to the MiFi. Overall, they were great and we would recommend them.

They are very professional and the car was comfortable and reliable. We had no issues or problems during our journey.

Very friendly staff, rental and return simple.

We ended up getting a Peugeot 208 and loved it! The people at Thrifty were super friendly when we picked it up, and same when we dropped it off! The Mifi they gave us worked amazingly. Would definitely rent from them again!

Góð þjónusta allt eins og það átti að vera. Var að vísu boðin auka trygging up á 15eur pr dag sem mér finnst heldur há. kannski miskilningur af minni hálfu. vissi ekki að tryggingar af einum bíl væri komnar upp yfir 600,000 isl. á ári.

It was very good, I enjoyed the car and the service.

We've rented a Volvo XC60 which we also got as they are the nationwide dealer for Volvo. :-) I got to say that everything went very smooth at the rental station. Runar was very friendly and helpful. For my next trip to Iceland I would defiantly go through Northbound again. Not only because of great pricing but also because of support and people that you can trust. Thanks guys! You are great!

Good and smooth process.Thank you.

Hired a 4x4 from Thrifty for 3days picked up car and was made welcome and everything explained well, our plans changed mid holiday so hired the car for another 3 days everyone was very accommodating and when we gave the car back we were given a lift back to our hotel. I would throughly recommend Thrifty to friends and family.

It was so easy to book online,the car Berlingo was a super car for our family of five,so much room in the boot, from the airport terminal shuttle bus to car rental, and staff were very helpful,I have no doubt that I will definitely use this company again

Overall we were pleased with the booking experience through northbound, we found the website easy to use and a great selection of hire vehicles. Unfortunately we were left disappointed when we arrived at the rental office, after finding the 2016 XC90 had been subbed for a much older Ford Expedition which neither myself or my husband felt was a satisfactory replacement. When my husband raised it with the sales person we were told quite abruptly that we were being given the Ford as there were no Volvos. The condition of the car inside was quite unsatisfactory, and our first task was to clean out the rubbish left by previous drivers. Based on our experience we would not deal with Thrifty again.

The Check-in Check-out was a breeze. Car was in great shape & very close to the airport. Highly recommend them.

The Mazda CX-5 was clean, comfortable and pleasant to drive. Although the small mirrors, windows and tinted windows made it difficult to see rearward.

The service was great, arranged a car for the morning that we decided to hire a car and collected us from our apartment. The car was much better than a Ford KA. The staff were very helpful. We decided on the last day to extend the hire and drop off at the airport and we were only charged the extra £25 drop off fee, cheaper than the bus transfer.

Had absolutely no issues getting to the location (except that Thrifty doesn't open nearly as early as google says they do) and it was great to have the flexibility of returning the car at Keflavik Intl. The Ford Fiesta was impeccably clean and reliable and by the end of the trip, it had grown considerably on me. But that may just been the vacation goggles.

Overall very good, no real problems. The hand over time I'd requested was 8am at the hotel but we didn't get collected until 8.30 to go to their main depot so it was actually 9.30 -9.45 before we left their premises but the staff were very pleasant and efficient.

It was great! The thrifty staff were very accommodating! Would recommend to others.
