    First let me say that I have no connection with Reykjavik Rent a Car other than as a satisfied customer. We encountered very pleasant and friendly staff who were efficient and gave clear information. Everything was as booked and there was no hard sell when I explained I had my own insurances. The car had some damage and scratches on it, which I discovered was actually a bonus. You will understand what I mean if ever you have driven far in Iceland! Believe me when I say you do not want an immaculate, unmarked, high performance new vehicle which shows every tiny bit of damage. The car was perfect for our needs and overall the whole experience was excellent. The prices were the best I could scour from the internet too.

    From Google reviews:

    The company has an office right outside Keflavik airport. There is a free shuttle bus fm the airport to the office. The stuff is friendly. I had no problems w/the car whatsoever (considering the fact she was brand new and only had 15 k km run). The technical support and gas discounts work perfectly well. There is a possibility to pay by debit card (that is IF you purchase platinum insurance which, by the way is a wise idea, considering the road conditions). One word of advice to future travellers - small car may not be sufficient for gravel roads regardless if they are F marked or not. Nevertheless we used a Suzuki Swift and she had managed just fine.

    From Tripadvisor:

    We, a group of 18, rented two Hyundai Starex H1 vans from Reykjavik Rent a Car for the Golden Circle Tour and a trip around Iceland. When we had a flat in Reykjavik late on our first day, Reykjavik Rent a Car provided excellent service to enable us to continue our trip without delay. Pickup and drop off at our hostels was very convenient. We later rented a vehicle for one day and again, the service was excellent. We recommend Reykjavik Rent a Car to fellow travellers.

    Everything was possible from the hiring to the delivery of the car. We are very satisfied. If you want to ask Iceland correctly, we recommend taking the highest insured amount. It's a bit more expensive since your on the safe side Kind regards Kiryl & Patrick.

    This was the easiest, quickest and best car hire experience I've had anywhere in Europe. No hard sell for extra insurance, no crazy deposit went to make this a simple procedure and not a trial.
