Discover mystical places with a Rental Car
Bizarre laval landscapes, fantastic fjords and crystal-clear lakes can be reached quickly and easily in Iceland with a rental car. In summer there are pleasant temperatures here, but even in winter it is often not colder than minus 5° Celsius. And especially during a winter holiday, the mystical place can have a real effect on the traveller.
If you are planning to rent a car in Iceland during the summer months, we recommend that you always take a small tent with you in your rental car. This way, you have the possibility to stop and spend the night wherever you like. Camping and staying overnight in a car is allowed in Iceland - the tent can be set up anywhere and nature lovers and campers can experience Iceland in an individual and original way.

Gullfoss waterfall
Those who take a tour of Iceland will soon realize that not the things built by the people with their hands are the special thing about this country, but the many natural spectacles that this island state has to offer. The Gullfoss waterfall is fascinating. Probably the most famous waterfall of Iceland and also known as the golden waterfall is located in the southwest. Here, a 32-meter high and double waterfall awaits the traveller with a fantastic panoramic view. It has its nickname because of the rainbow that forms when the sun shines over the water. The special thing about the Icelandic waterfalls is that they all crash into canyons that have been dug up over millions of years by the powerful water masses.
Explore the Jokulsargflur reserve by Rental Car
Further away from Reykjavik in the northeast of Iceland, near the small town Grimsstadir there is a reserve of Jokulsargflur. Here you can admire the longest gorges on Iceland as well as the strongest waterfall in Europe. The gorge of Jöksula is 25 km long, the Dettifoss waterfall can be admired in a width of 100 meters and a height of 44 meters. Before you get there you have to cross a grey moonscape, which takes about 20 minutes on foot. Other smaller waterfalls complete the fascinating picture. A description of these enchanting landscapes in Iceland is difficult, so every traveller should get an idea of this almost undiscovered place.

Car Hire Iceland: Culinary specialities
Iceland is fascinating not only for the eyes, but also the culinary highlights must not be ignored during a round trip over the island. Fish in particular is offered here in all conceivable forms and dishes. And there are mainly cereal and dairy products as well as potatoes and cured, dried, soured or pickled meat on the menus. Fresh vegetables and fruit were not common in the barren landscape of Iceland in the past and can only be grown since the construction of greenhouses on the island. But the restaurant offers on Iceland have become very varied these days, because American fast food chains and Asians have become established here too.
