    From Tripadvisor:

    I went to Iceland 2 weeks ago. Encouraged by good reviews I’ve chosen Reykjavik Rent a Car and I have to say, the reviews are true. They offer great service, not one of these companies that rip you off at car return. The company is run by young, sympathy folks. The prices they offer are not expensive, comparing to other car rentals - slightly higher then 'budget car rentals', but it is worth to spend a few more pennies and pick a rental house that will not charge you a load for a midget scratch.
    The rental house is located approx. 300m from the airport terminal. It is not far, but Icelandic weather conditions are sometimes demanding. The weather was really bad as we landed, so they picked us up and drove us to the office. At the return, they also offered a lift to the terminal, but the weather was nice so we walked. I think this gives an overall look how nice these guys are ;-)
    If I ever come again to Iceland I will chose this company again for sure!

    We rented a Suzuki Vitara 4WD automatic (Platinum insurance) with Reikjavik rent a car and the experience was great.

    The check-in and check-out were really fast (no more than 15 min each), especially the check-in, the fastest I've ever seen. I've rented other cars in other countries and the check-in were really slow and we lost a lot of time in the office, so for me it was important that with this company was so fast.

    The 24/7 available phone they have for incidences was good, they solved all the needs and questions we had.

    The car was in good condition, nothing to complain about.

    I checked in internet a lot of rental car companies in Iceland and, in my opinion, if you want a zero risk insurance, this is the best and cheapest one (at least when I was searching in internet in April 2018). I totally recommend this car rental company based in my experience (May 2018)

    From Google reviews:

    Un peu de mal à trouver l'agence en sortant de l'aéroport (ayant loupé la navette, j'y suis aller à pied), mais la zone de location de voiture n'est pas si grande. On m'a confier un Dacia Duster 4x4 Diesel (pneus cloutés), et j'ai adoré, un très bon véhicule avec lequel j'ai pu faire le tour de l'ile en toute tranquillité, très bonne conduite, bien qu'un peu rude si vous n'avez pas l'habitude des 4x4. L'état général du véhicule était très bon, et je n'ai eu aucun souci, que ce soit en roulant sous les rafales de vent, la pluie, dans la boue, la neige, sur route gelée... Bref, un bon choix pour pratiquer les routes islandaises de manière sereine.

    You had a good customer service.

    1) Your staff responded to email quite quickly
    2) The response was satisfactory. When I ordered for a car for 6 passengers, however, in your website no car with 6 seats advertised, your customer service offered a reasonable car to us to accommodate our request.

    Thank you.
