Great Iceland experience

There is a counter at the airport in Iceland, with staff arranged according to flight schedules, meaning you can pick up a car 24/7. It might be a bit crowded because AVIS and Budget share the same counter, but the process is quick.

It wasn't obvious where the car hire depots were - the symbol in the airport was a car with a key above and we were not sure we were following the correct signs. The girl at desk was not happy that I didn't take any additional insurance policy. I chose a policy on the website that I thought covered everything I might encounter but she advised it didn't cover for natural disasters. I chose not to pay for this as the areas she indicated there might be a problem I wasn't going to visit.

The only comment I can make is a mix up on paper work. At one point we were expecting a Hyundai I35 and ended up with a VW polo. Though this car served our purpose well it may have been nice to have that little more space.

Like: The car was perfect, it got me everywhere I needed for the two weeks, it didn’t come with WiFi, but I managed to get one with their help, I appreciated them telling me to get full insurance coverage and letting me know how badly the cats get beat up in Iceland. It’s so true. Ricks are constantly being throw up by other cars in front of you and hitting your windows and fast moving trucks down south. I like how fast they work to get you in and out of there.
Dislike: The cost of the full insurance was quite high. WiFi or gps should be included in the rental package, but everything ekes was good and fast.
