    We had a great experience renting through Reykavik Rent a Car. Booking online was easy, fast, and far and away the most affordable option. When we arrived at the airport, there location was easy to find and there was relatively no wait. The gentleman who helped us was thorough with expectations and gave us a very useful rundown of how to stay safe ont he roads and what weather and travel websites to use. We had not considered GPS to get around, and he advised us on all of our options. We ended up going with portable Wifi to use google maps on our phones, which we were VERY happy with. The car was in great condition and was exactly as described. We never felt unsafe or questioned the cars maintenance or upkeep. Iceland is known for having difficult driving conditions, and we never felt like we were unprepared. Checking back in was fast and very easy. The car was pretty dirty (again, Iceland driving) and we weren't charged for anything. Simple, safe, and user friendly. We would book through them again for sure.

    I rented a car with Reykjavík Rent A Car and ended up having to cancel my reservation due to unforeseen circumstances. The friendly and helpful staff member that I spoke to on the phone gave me a full refund without an additional charge. When I first booked, there was an issue with AmEx and Reykjavík Rent A Car emailed me right away and were very communicative. Though I'm disappointed that I won't be able to follow through with my rental on this trip, I am very impressed with Reykjavík Rent A Car's selection, prices, and customer services and will definitely book a car with them on my next trip to Iceland.

    Effective service. We rented twice. The second time just for a day and last minute. They found a car and got a discount considering we were already their client.
