A conventional car is perfectly adequate for summer driving on Route 1. It's a busy artery, essential to life on the island, so official services take great care of it all year round.
To explore the secondary roads, a 4x4 vehicle is essential, with grippy tires suitable for gravel as well as dirt. You're sure to come across the huge puddles that punctuate the landscape when the snow melts or after it rains. Some tracks, such as the F249 in the south of the country, involve the crossing of several fords and require a certain dexterity at the wheel. To be avoided if you're not particularly comfortable driving on rough roads!

To rent a car in Iceland, you must present a valid driver's license from your home country that obtained at least 12 months ago, your passport and your credit card.
If you do not have a European, European Economic Area (Liechtenstein and Norway), Canadian or American driver's license, you have to obtain an international driver's license. Watch out! The international license does not replace your original driver’s license, it only complements it. You must have both documents with you at all times.
In Iceland, the majority of rental vehicles are equipped with a manual transmission. If you would like a car with an automatic transmission, please don't hesitate to ask!
In some countries, foreign drivers must have an International Driving Permit (IDP), which is valid for 1 to 3 years. It's an official translation of your driver's license in a dozen languages and you can use it in over 150 countries!
It can be required or simply recommended depending on the country.
All over the world, age conditions and restrictions are applied for car rentals.
An increase in the price of the rented vehicle can therefore be induced. The minimum age required for a car rental varies according to the country of destination. In addition, each rental company can decide for themself whether to maintain this minimum age or to increase the minimum age limit for car rentals.
In Iceland, you can rent a car from the age of 20. For higher vehicle categories such as 4x4s, the minimum age is 23 years old.
Car seat regulations vary from country to country. You should always check the road safety regulations of the country you plan to visit for your child’s safety.
In Iceland, any child under 135 cm must be placed in a suitable seat.
If your seat meets these standards, bring it with you! It's free to bring with most airlines and your child will be comfortable and feeling right at home.
Otherwise, you will have to consider renting a child seat with your vehicle. This option will be payable in advance or at the counter, depending on the rental companies.
Please note that not all rental companies offer this option.
