The rental company

Camper Iceland, from campervans to 4x4 pick-up campers, departing from Keflavík

Camper Iceland is an Icelandic company that hires out its vehicles from a single depot, in Keflavík, in the municipality of Reykjanesbær. The address is a few kilometres from the international airport, with no desk in the terminal: the first journey is by taxi or shuttle before you hit Route 1 or the Reykjanes peninsula.

The fleet ranges from small campervans for two (Loki, Freedom) to low-profile motorhomes for four to six people (Sif, Freyja, Hel, Frigg), with a six-berth overcab model. The rental company also offers campers mounted on 4x4 pick-ups (Thor, Tyr, Odin). Almost all models are named after a Norse deity, and several are available with an automatic gearbox.

As for the terms, our observations from October 2026 show a €3,200 excess and no offer with unlimited mileage: each offer sets its kilometre allowance and the rate payable beyond it. Offers were observed for January, April and July: hiring is possible all year round.

Our verdict: a practical choice for anyone landing at Keflavík, with a varied range, from budget campervans to 4x4 pick-ups for the tracks. Its weak points: limited mileage to keep an eye on during a full tour of the island, a high excess and a single departure point, with no possible return in Akureyri or Reykjavik.

Our view

Camper Iceland: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?

Camper Iceland is ideal if…

  • You are flying into Keflavík and want to hit the road without going through Reykjavik
  • You dream of a 4x4 pick-up camper to get off the main roads
  • You are travelling with family or friends, up to six people
  • You prefer an automatic gearbox, offered on several models
  • You are travelling out of season: offers also exist in January
  • You want a small budget campervan for two

Camper Iceland is not ideal if…

  • You absolutely must have unlimited mileage
  • You want to pick up or return the vehicle in Akureyri or central Reykjavik
  • You don't want to carry a €3,200 excess in case of damage
  • You plan to spend your nights out in the wild, away from campsites
Practical tips

Our tips for booking with Camper Iceland

  1. Organise the journey from the airport

    The Klettatröð depot is not in the terminal: allow a few minutes by taxi from the Keflavík terminal. If your flight arrives late in the evening, check the opening hours in your confirmation and, if necessary, plan a night in a hotel near the airport before departure.

  2. Estimate the distance before choosing the offer

    As mileage is limited in the observed offers, do the maths: Route 1, which circles the island, is about 1,300 km on its own, not counting detours to the Westfjords or the Snæfellsnes peninsula. Compare this total with the included allowance and the price per extra kilometre.

  3. Book a 4x4 if you are heading for the Highlands

    The inland tracks, marked with the letter F, are reserved for 4x4 vehicles and generally only open in high summer. The Thor, Tyr and Odin campers are mounted on 4x4 pick-ups, but read the offer terms: access to F-roads and river crossings may remain excluded from the insurance.

  4. Sleep at campsites

    In Iceland, spending the night in a camper vehicle outside a campsite is in principle prohibited, unless the landowner agrees. Locate the campsites along your route: many close in winter, and those that stay open are fewer in the East and North.

  5. Think about wind, gravel and the excess

    With an observed excess of €3,200, a chipped windscreen or a door torn off by a gust soon becomes expensive. Hold doors firmly when opening them, slow down on gravel roads and ask our experts which cover protects against gravel, sand and underbody damage.

  6. Walk round the vehicle at departure

    Before leaving Keflavík, photograph the bodywork and windows, check the kitchen and bedding inventory and note the assistance number. If the model handed over differs from the one booked, check its fuel consumption and dimensions before signing the contract.

What travellers ask

Your questions about Camper Iceland

Where is the Camper Iceland depot?

Camper Iceland’s only depot is in Keflavík, on Klettatröð street, in the municipality of Reykjanesbær. It is not in the terminal: from the international airport, it takes a few minutes by taxi to get there. Reykjavik is about fifty kilometres away. The return is at the same place, as no other depot appears in our data.

Is mileage unlimited with Camper Iceland?

No, not in our observations: all the Camper Iceland offers observed by CoolDrive in October 2026 have limited mileage. Each offer shows its kilometre allowance and the cost of each kilometre beyond it. For a full tour of the island on Route 1, allow at least 1,300 km and compare with the allowance offered.

Can you drive on F-roads with a Camper Iceland 4x4?

The Thor, Tyr and Odin 4x4 pick-up campers are designed for difficult roads, but access to the Highland F-roads depends on the rental company’s terms and the insurance. Read them in the offer details before booking. These tracks generally only open between late June and early September, and fording rivers requires experience.

Which Camper Iceland vehicle should I choose?

For two people on a small budget, the Loki or Freedom campervan is enough for a circuit on paved roads. The Motor Home 2 Idunn gives couples more comfort. For four to six people, go for a Sif, Freyja, Hel or Frigg low-profile motorhome. If you want to get off the main roads, opt for a 4x4 pick-up camper.

How much does Camper Iceland hire cost in Iceland?

For a 15-day hire, a Camper Iceland campervan starts at €126 per day in July, mandatory fees included (prices observed in October 2026). The median price then reaches €313 per day for a campervan or converted pick-up and €360 for a low-profile motorhome. In April, these medians fall to €208 and €267. Run a search for your dates to find out the exact rate.

We rented a campervan for a trip to Iceland. Everything went well. Good service from Cooldrive.

We rented a camper to travel in Iceland through Cooldrive. Everything went well, pricing and transaction. We took out the franchise buyback insurance offered by Cooldrive, which was much cheaper than that of the rental company in Reykjavik (next to the airport). It is worth noting that the motorhome rental companies are far from the international airport, and you need to take a taxi to get there. This is a detail that Cooldrive could provide to inform its customers. Good welcome and service at the camper rental company Camper Iceland: However, the reserved camper was unavailable, and they gave us a much larger motorhome, very comfortable but more fuel-consuming.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Camper Iceland campervan and motorhome hire in Iceland

Why book Camper Iceland with CoolDrive?

On CoolDrive, Camper Iceland offers appear in the same search as those of GO Camper, RV Iceland, Holdur or McRent. You immediately see the mileage included, the excess and the depot location, with a final price that includes mandatory fees. An expert can help you choose between a campervan and a 4x4 pick-up depending on your route and the season.

What is the excess with Camper Iceland?

In all the Camper Iceland offers observed in October 2026, the excess amounts to €3,200, whatever the model. The applicable amount is shown in each offer. The rental company offers additional insurance, and our experts can present the options for reducing this amount, which matters in Iceland, where gravel, wind and sand often damage vehicles.

Can you hire from Camper Iceland in winter?

Yes: CoolDrive has observed Camper Iceland offers for departures in January. The Icelandic winter does, however, call for precautions: very short days, snowy or icy roads, campsites often closed. Check road conditions and the weather every day, leave some leeway in your schedule and choose a heated vehicle, to be checked in the model description.

Can you sleep wherever you like in a motorhome in Iceland?

No: in Iceland, nights in a camper vehicle must in principle be spent at a campsite or on authorised land, unless the landowner agrees. Campsites are plentiful along Route 1 in summer. Out of season, check which ones stay open before setting your stops, especially in the fjords and the North.

What is on board a Camper Iceland vehicle?

The vehicles generally have a sleeping area and a kitchenette with utensils. The exact contents vary by model and are listed in its description. The rental company also offers optional equipment, such as a GPS, child seats or a barbecue: request them when booking, subject to availability, to find them ready in Keflavík.

Can you return the vehicle somewhere other than Keflavík?

Camper Iceland has only one depot in our data: departure and return are in Keflavík. So plan a loop, for example the tour of the island on Route 1 or a shorter circuit to the Golden Circle and the south coast. If you want to finish in Akureyri, compare with the rental companies that have a depot there.
