Before renting a car in Iceland, make sure that the main driver and additional drivers are all at least 23 years old.
Also note that drivers must have at least one year of driving experience to rent a car from us.
Drivers between the ages of 20 and 25 will be subject to a higher security deposit than drivers 25 and older. This deposit, frozen on the credit card of the main driver at the time of pick-up, corresponds to the deductible to be paid in case of accident (500€ to 1000€).
When you return the vehicle after your road trip, this deposit will be released immediately and all data and confidential information linked to the card will be destroyed.
Please note that you will also be asked to pay an additional fee for your rental if you are between 20 and 25 years old (about 25 € / day depending on the supplier). This amount covers the additional insurance required for young drivers.
Finally, 20 and 25 year olds can drive the following vehicles: sub-compact, compact and standard.
For insurance reasons again, 20 to 25 year old drivers cannot drive a 4x4 or minivan.
