"Lotus is a top-notch operation in Iceland. It is easy to get to right from the airport as a tram will pick you up and drop you right at their doorstep. Their staff is very friendly and helpful. If you're not familiar with the countryside I would recommend GPS but don't fully trust it 100%. We hired the all-wheel drive Volkswagen 9 seat van. It had plenty of room but it is not your luxury van. It did get the job done. I highly recommend Lotus car rental Iceland."

Whether it’s your first adventure or you’re a seasoned pro, these resources will help you enjoy your time exploring Iceland in a campervan to its fullest.
If you’re planning on getting off the beaten path in Iceland and taking your rental car into the highland region, you’ll have to traverse a number of designated highland roads known as F-Roads.
Are you looking to get off the beaten path and explore the best of Iceland’s untouched hidden gems but not sure where to find them? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with this guide.
So you’ve decided to visit Iceland. After booking your flights and creating a list of the amazing things you want to see and experience in the land of fire and ice, the next thing on your list is probably to decide whether you hire a car or not.
F-Roads are unpaved, mountain roads in Iceland’s Highlands which can only be used during certain times of the year and in 4x4 vehicles with high ground clearance due to the rugged terrain.
All of the campers we rent out at Lotus Car Rental feature 4WD and are F-Road compliant, allowing you to explore Iceland’s most remote and beautiful landscapes safely.
Read more about driving on F-Roads on our blog.
With roughly 200 campsites, Iceland provides ample overnight options, mainly situated along its scenic coast and the Ring Road. These vary widely, from simple, facility-free pitches to advanced sites with modern amenities. The surge in campervan popularity has led to a corresponding increase in campsite development, serving a diverse crowd of Icelanders and global tourists alike.
Iceland also boasts three National Parks—Þingvellir, Vatnajökull, and Snæfellsjökull—each showcasing unique landscapes and activities. The majority are camper-friendly and conveniently located along major routes.
There are different requirements depending on the type of camper van you are renting:
Young Driver Fee: If you do not meet the minimum age or the minimum time frame of 12 months, but have a valid driver’s license, you may rent a car by paying a Young Driver Fee.
The minimum rental period for one of our campers is 24 hours.
Before you get behind the wheel of your camper van, we’ll need to see the following documentation:
We accept all foreign licenses as long as it is in English, or has Latin characters. If your driving license does not follow this format, remember to bring an international driving license.
Credit and debit cards are accepted methods of payment.
However, if you choose to use a debit card, a deposit will be collected and then refunded if the car is returned in the same condition as it was rented, with no additional costs or fees. We accept all credit cards. Please contact us for further information.
One of our team members will be waiting for you at the arrival hall of your airport and will take you to our office to complete the paperwork. After your journey has ended, you can return your rental camper van to our office at any time. Alternatively, you can arrange for the vehicle to be delivered to a location that suits you, if arranged in advance.
Before you begin your campervan holiday in Iceland, you should plan which campsites you would like to stay in.
If you’re camping in Iceland, you can obtain a camping card, which grants you free access to campsites across Iceland. Whilst this isn’t a necessity, you might find a camping card to be the most cost-effective option if you plan to stay in multiple sites during your trip.
You are required to purchase Third Party Liability insurance as a minimum when renting a camper van in Iceland. The level of additional rental car insurance you might need in Iceland, such as gravel or sand and ash insurance, is dependent upon where you intend to travel in your rental car. You might find you want more insurance if you will be driving in rural locations.
Find out more in our guide to rental car insurance in Iceland.
You’ll need to be aware of various rules and regulations during your time in the country. For in-depth advice, take a look at our extensive driving in Iceland guide.
Driving off-road in any vehicle is strictly prohibited due to the extreme fragility of Iceland's soil and vegetation. This delicate environment is highly susceptible to damage from all types of traffic.
