We had a very good experience with Thrifty and renting a car from them via Northbound. Picking up the car and returning it took very little time. The car was in great shape, yet at the same time, Thrifty had meticulously detailed any minor scratches so there was no issue upon return that we had caused any damage. After examining several rental car websites for Iceland that frankly were very confusing and the subject of some negative reviews, I would highly recommend using the Northbound site. It was easy to understand, easy to compare prices, and it seemed like they had taken the time to make sure they only had quality, reliable cars on their search results...

Excellent. Great service from start to finish !
Excellent experience, great customer service! We had a nice time driving around Iceland and had no issues with the car. The rental office in Reykjavik was easy to find.
My experience with Northbound went as smoothly as it could get. The customer service was spot on and the car was perfect!! Ill be back again to visit Iceland and will definitely book with them again!
Really great! I had made an error filling in the web-based form for arranging a car rental, but this was very quickly fixed by a simple phone call. It worked out beautifully. I enthusiastically recommend Northbound. I will use them in future.
Great service. Really friendly and informative. Would definitely use northbound for future trips. Highly recommended!
Very good experience with lagoon car rental. Very nice staff. Very good choice about car. Thank you for all.
Quite positive. Good prices, good vehicle, helpful people (I showed up early and they were still able to work with me) .
The service with northbound was very good. All you rent is inside. Very good and helpful is the GPS-System. The car has some stone strikes outside but it doesn't matter. Otherwise was everything ok. Best regards, Angela

The insurances are there for a reason. They provide security and peace of mind so that you can enjoy your Icelandic adventure happy and without worry. Each optional insurance targets different scenarios in which the standard CDW does not cover.
The required age may vary depending on the car rental that you choose. The usual minimum age is 20 and sometimes higher for larger vehicles. Contact us if you’re having issues with the minimum age and we might be able to direct you to the right rental.
If your vehicle is a 4x4 then in all likelihood it is Highland Capable, but some smaller 4x4’s are forbidden on F-roads. Certain roads, such as F249 in Þórsmörk, are usually forbidden to drive no matter what rental car you have chosen.
No. Off-road driving is illegal in Iceland and will result in a fine, issued by police, of up to 100.000 ISK.
