    From Tripadvisor:

    Reykjavik Rent a car is just excellent.!!!!!!!!
    We have been traveling around iceland for 3 weeks. There is no better way to go around the island as with a car. We could stop everywhere, and we found absolutely magic (!!!) places. So, we have been looking for a good car company, and we couldn't have decided better. I think Reykjavik Rent a Car is the best car rental company i ever collaborate with. We had very special wishes about how our car should be and look like because of the way we wanted to travel. And they were really always very helpful and were responsive to ALL of our (sometimes crazy) wishes. Even when our tank was empty in the middle of nowhere there was someone helping us within 30 minutes.
    We especially want to thank Kristjan for this outstanding service i can't describe in words!
    We will come to iceland again and definitely will rent our car with Reykjavik Rent a Car.
    Thanks a lot for making our trip so perfect!

    From Tripadvisor:

    Very happy with Reykjavik Rent a Car. A group of 6 of us hired a large 4x4 from them last December, so we could have some independence on our Northern Lights (Icelandair) Trip. It turned out to be excellent value, especially when you consider that you can deduct the cost of 6 airport transfers from the rental price. We were able to easily organise our own day tours to the hot spots like Thingvellir, Geysir and Gullfoss - but at the times WE wanted to go, not the times the bus tours do it. Also, the whole of the Reykjanes Peninsular was there for our exploration given we had a capable 4x4. Service at the airport was spot on; professional, but also warm & friendly. I have just booked another vehicle from them, for use in July, and again communications by email have been swift (like lightning by Icelandic standards :)), friendly and efficient. Recommended.

    Booked on-line using my phone - it was so easy and the reservation was confirmed without the need for a credit card.
    I collected the car at 9am Sunday morning and paid - no hidden extras and the representative Ragnar was extremely helpful and professional with lots of good advice.
    The service was quick, comprehensive and efficient and both Ragnar and the company were very easy to do business with.

    I used this rental company on my recent trip to Iceland.

    Very efficient booking, confirmation and check-in process.

    Received an upgrade to a slightly higher 4x4 which was almost brand new.

    Communication on car pickup was efficient and very effective and friendly.

    I'd have no problem recommending them or using them again.
