Great service! We were a bit late finding the meet up point but the rep was still waiting for us, no problem. After the short drive to the rental office, the registration was quick and we were on our way! The Toyota Yaris hybrid was great for the two of us and connecting to the CarPlay was easy for Google maps but took more time to connect to music. It helps if you’re familiar with how to connect a phone. The car return was equally quick and I was driven back to the airport right away by a friendly rep.

Great company to deal with. Reasonable, competitive rates, informative travel information provided before our trip, with useful links. Minor problem with car (warning light), company didn’t hesitate with swapping out a replacement car. Would use again if we return
Gaelan Beatty

The car rental was seemless. The young man Gunnar was very punctual, returned emails in a very short timeframe. He was also the one who dropped off the vehicle right in front of our hotel. He even gave us a reccommendation on a waterfall to visit when we picked up the car and a dinner recommendation when we dropped it back off for him, AT our hotel! So incredibly convenient and easy to use a vehicle here and we were happy for the freedom of a vehicle and the hardiness of a 4 wheel drive vehicle to get to the better and less tourist heavy natural features.

Wonderful company with excellent customer service. They were able to accommodate my schedule change. I highly recommend them.

Great company! We rented a car for our trip in Iceland and couldn’t be happier with the service of the company. The process was very easy and Olafur, the owner, delivered the car to our hotel. He is always very easy to reach for any plan changes. We will definitely be using this company for our next trip to Iceland!

Great car. Great price. Thank you!
