We had a great experience with Iceland…
We had a great experience with Iceland Car Rental. Being able to pick up and drop off in Downtown Reykjavik is a good option.
Great Experience With Iceland Car Rental
I booked a Suzuki Vitara but was given a Nissan SUV instead, and it turned out to be a lovely upgrade. The car was automatic with four‑wheel drive, which came in very handy as it snowed a few times during my trip. It handled the roads beautifully and was a really comfortable drive.
I chose the full insurance package after hearing plenty of horror stories about strong winds damaging car doors and the rougher road surfaces in Iceland. I’m pleased to say I had absolutely no issues at all.
Collection and drop‑off were both straightforward and stress‑free. Overall, a smooth and reliable experience. I would happily use Iceland Car Rental again.
Car pick-up and return was very quick…
Car pick-up and return was very quick and smooth. Prior damages were communicated.
Easy!
We hired a car from the Reykjavík office, the no contact pickup was easy. We chose a ‘used’ model so the car wasn’t like new but it was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed and included a discount on fuel. I’d highly recommend.

Nice car, easy process for both collection and drop off
I rented a car with Iceland Car Rental/…
I rented a car with Iceland Car Rental/ Blue Car Rental three times now. Each time the whole process from renting the car online to picking the car up until returning it is so smooth.
This time my flight landed way earlier than expected. So much earlier that I didn't get the code for the key box yet. That wasn't a problem as the person working behind the counter just looked up the code for me.
Good service, excellent and transparant pricing
For an Iceland vacation I recommend Iceland Car Rental. They have a very tranparant pricing system, no hidden fees and excellend service.
As promised
Getting hold of the car was quite easy, everything was as stated with full insurance and none of the usual ‘extras’ needed. The car was clean and ideal for what we wanted
perfect!
There's little to say... the service was impeccable in terms of clarity and courtesy and the vehicle was perfect
Super happy with everything from pickup…
Super happy with everything from pickup to return — everything went so smoothly. No extra fees. Very high-quality car.
Reasonable prices, easy check-in and drop off
We had a great check-in, once we found the transfer bus. No problems with picking up the car and the drop off was easy.
Great company to rent with
Great company to rent with easy from start to finish very reasonable pricing no hidden extras and quality cars to choose from we had the Kia sportage perfect for our needs highly recommend the company
Very easy and stress free pick up/drop…
Very easy and stress free pick up/drop off. The staff were extremely accommodating to all my questions and helped me pick out the perfect car, for the lowest price, that was also solid in winter conditions. We loved our trip to Iceland in the winter, and will definitely be coming back in the summer for a couple weeks. I had accidently made a mistake when booking, and they refunded me and allowed me to make the proper booking without any trouble. Great customer service! When we book, we will make sure to book with Iceland Car Rentals again because of how good the service was.
Brilliant service from start to finish
Brilliant service from start to finish. The coach to take us to the office was easy to find and the check to collect the car was so smooth, with lots of helpful staff.

Very good expererience very good car good service overall will use again for sure
Poor service
Poor experience: the car was delivered to the Keflavik Airport branch with a roof box that was already damaged and (poorly) repaired. The offices were already closed and it was impossible to request a replacement. Two days later, the box was damaged beyond repair due to strong winds, and despite being 150 km from Keflavik, there was no way we could get a new box from the nearest rental agency. We had to drive all the way back to Keflavik, thus losing a non-refundable portion of our stay. Upon arrival, the staff didn't apologize for providing damaged equipment, but they even "complimented" us (ironically) for how we managed to patch up the box for the trip! I should also note that, despite providing us with a PHEV vehicle, they didn't provide a charging cable, as the employee said it was "not necessary," when in fact it is essential for this type of vehicle.
Very fast and easy.
Everything was good and smooth.
Amazing Roadtrip with the company's new car
The fast no contact pick-up and drop off is probably one the company's strong points. Our flight arrived midnight and we were able to get to the office at around 1am. There was a key pick up box where the car keys are, we digit the code given us via email and that's it. We were on our way to our hotel and our icelandic adventure. The car was new and efficient. We had no issues whatsoever. We returned the car afterwards hassle free and easier than the pick up. Will surely recommend this company to friends and if we will be coming back to Iceland, then we surely know where to rent.
