    Just wanted to add to this stream of replies. My family and I, a total of 4 just got back from Iceland. We rented a a 4x4 Dacia Duster from Reykjavik Rent a car so that we could tour the country for about a week, (which we did, 2800 kilometres in fact). From the moment we got our bags and went outside they had their rep waiting there with my name on a clip board. The young man was very friendly and took us over to their rental office about a 2-minute drive from the airport. There he just took a copy of my Driver's License and card we used to make the booking. After which we went outside, we looked at the car, did a quick inspection, and he gave us some tips about the vehicle. After that we were on our merry way! That simple. No BS, no added fees, no hidden fees. Straight forward. They were very easy to deal with. We toured the country as mentioned above about 2800 km's and never once had a break down or any issues with the car. They gave us the car with a full tank which was nice, because the last thing you want to do after an 8-hr flight is stop and get gas. I have nothing but good things to say about this company, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone renting a car in Iceland. I don't know how their prices compare to others but I felt we got a good deal for a week's worth of travel in a nice safe 4x4. As mentioned in other replies their general manager Kristjan never sleeps! He answers emails often within an hour or two tops, and was very helpful and nice to deal with. So, save yourself the headache and just deal with the best. These guys will have my return business when my wife and I plan to go back to Iceland this winter.

    We have booked Toyota Rav 4 diesel through the web site. When we arrived to the airport they told us that we will get Ford Kuga gasoline instead. After request they have changed it to Hyundai Tuscon diesel. The car was not new ( with 140000 km already ) and we had one issue with the wheel on the first day. I called the agency and they sent mechanic to handle the issue. The process was quick and professional. Rest of the vacation the car was fine. Return process was fast and easy. Price was very reasonable
