Go CampersFuglavik 43, 230 Reykjanesbær, Keflavik
GO Camper, vans and 4x4s for touring Iceland
GO Camper, also found under the name Go Campers Iceland, is an Icelandic rental company specialising in converted vans and 4x4 vehicles in which you sleep on board or in a rooftop tent. Handovers take place in the Keflavík area: the address given, in Reykjanesbær, is not far from the international airport, to be reached by taxi or by the transfer the offer may include.
The choice is wide. Go SMART and Go ICELAND take two travellers, Go LITE three, Go BIG up to four berths. Then come the 4x4 models: Go 4x4 Cruiser, Go 4x4 LUX, Go TOP and Go 4x4 WRANGLER with a rooftop tent, a Go 4x4 California Beach pop-top van and the Go 4x4 Camper, a camper unit mounted on a pick-up. Several ranges come with either a manual or an automatic gearbox.
All the GO Camper offers observed by CoolDrive in October 2026 include unlimited mileage, with an excess of €3,500. On an island whose ring road alone exceeds 1,300 km, without the detours to Snæfellsnes or the Westfjords, having no kilometre cap makes a real difference to the budget.
Our view: a local rental company with a varied catalogue, letting you set off in a small budget van just as well as in a 4x4. Points to anticipate: a €3,500 excess to cover, summer rates much higher than in winter, and a departure point to reach from the terminal.

GO Camper: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?
GO Camper is ideal if…
- You are arriving via Keflavík airport and want to hit the road on day one
- You are travelling as a couple on a tight budget: the small Go SMART and Go ICELAND vans are made for that
- You dream of the Highlands and want a 4x4, subject to the offer conditions
- You insist on an automatic gearbox: several ranges come in both versions
- You plan to complete Route 1 with detours: no kilometre limit in our observations
- You like the idea of sleeping in a rooftop tent
GO Camper is not ideal if…
- You are looking for a low-profile or an overcab with a bathroom: GO Camper hires out vans and 4x4s
- There are five or more of you: the models observed offer four berths at most
- You want to set off from Akureyri or the east of the island: departures are in the south-west
- You are travelling in July on a limited budget: summer prices are much higher
- You do not want to carry a €3,500 excess without additional cover
Our tips for booking with GO Camper
-
Match the vehicle to the itinerary
For Route 1 and the big tarmac loops, a Go SMART, Go LITE or Go BIG van is enough. The F-roads of the interior, generally open from late June to September depending on the snow, require a 4x4 and the rental company's agreement: read the offer conditions before taking a vehicle onto them.
-
Beware of gusts
Icelandic wind can rip off a door opened carelessly. Park facing the wind, open the door while holding the handle firmly and avoid driving in strong storms. Before each stage, check vedur.is for the weather and road.is for road conditions.
-
Look closely at gravel and sand cover
Flying stones on dirt roads, sandstorms or ash storms on the south coast: this damage is common in Iceland and not always covered by the basic insurance. With an observed excess of €3,500, check in the offer what is included and what can be added.
-
Do the condition check with your phone
At departure, photograph the bodywork, windscreen and wheels, check the kitchen inventory and note down the assistance number. These few minutes avoid arguments on return, especially after gravel roads.
-
Plan the journey to the depot
The handover address is in Reykjanesbær, not in the terminal. Check in your confirmation whether a transfer is included and at what time; otherwise, count on a taxi. For summer, book early: available vans quickly become scarce in high season.
Your questions about GO Camper
Can I drive on F-roads with a GO Camper vehicle?
The F-roads, which cross the Highlands, are generally reserved for 4x4s and open only for part of the summer. GO Camper hires out several 4x4 models, from the Go 4x4 Cruiser to the Go 4x4 Camper, but the authorised models and insurance exclusions, such as fording rivers, appear in the conditions of each offer. Read them before planning your itinerary.
Is mileage unlimited with GO Camper?
Yes: in all the GO Camper offers observed by CoolDrive in Iceland, from the small Go SMART van to the Go 4x4 Camper, mileage is unlimited. This is valuable for a tour of the island on Route 1, to which detours to the fjords or the Snæfellsnes peninsula are soon added. With Camper Iceland, by contrast, the offers observed have limited mileage.
Which GO Camper model should I choose?
For two, a Go SMART or a Go ICELAND remains the simplest choice for Route 1. The Go LITE takes a third traveller and the Go BIG goes up to four berths. For dirt roads, look at the 4x4s: rooftop tent on the Go TOP or the WRANGLER, pop-top roof on the California Beach, pick-up camper unit with the Go 4x4 Camper.
Where do I pick up my GO Camper vehicle?
GO Camper departures take place in the Keflavík area, at Fuglavík 43 in Reykjanesbær, not far from the international airport. In the search engine, the offer appears as departing from Keflavík. The exact address, opening times and any transfer from the airport appear in the offer, then in your booking confirmation.
How much does a GO Camper hire cost in Iceland?
According to prices observed in October 2026 for 14-day hires, a GO Camper van starts at €100 per day, mandatory fees included. The median price is around €178 in January and €187 in April, then climbs to around €443 in July. The 4x4s start at around €262 per day. The exact rate depends on your dates: run a search.

FAQ — GO Camper campervan and 4x4 hire in Iceland
Why book GO Camper with CoolDrive?
A single CoolDrive search sets GO Camper alongside other Icelandic rental companies, with the same information for all: mileage, excess, vehicle type. The price displayed includes mandatory fees, and our experts help you decide between a van and a 4x4 according to your itinerary and the season. You book online, with a contact you can reach right up to departure day.
What excess does GO Camper charge?
In all the GO Camper offers observed in October 2026, the excess is €3,500, whatever the model. The security deposit and how it is paid are specified in the offer, usually on a credit card. Also check what the protection against gravel, sand and ash covers, often offered separately in Iceland.
Can I hire a GO Camper van in winter?
Yes, our observations show GO Camper offers in January, at much gentler prices than in July. The Icelandic winter does, however, mean short days, roads that are sometimes snowy or icy, and temporary closures. Stick to the main routes, check road.is every morning and choose a short itinerary around the south-west and the south coast.
Can I sleep anywhere with a van in Iceland?
No: spending the night in a vehicle outside campsites is generally prohibited in Iceland. Plan your stops at campsites, which are plentiful along Route 1 and often open from May to September. In winter, the choice narrows: find out in advance which ones stay open along your route.
Manual or automatic gearbox with GO Camper?
Both. The Go SMART, Go LITE and Go BIG ranges come in manual and automatic versions, and most of the 4x4 models are automatic. The Go ICELAND and the Go TOP have manual gearboxes. The transmission is shown in each model's description: check it if you are not used to driving a manual.
What should I check when picking up the van?
Walk round the vehicle with the agent and photograph every chip, especially on the windscreen. Check the kitchen and bedding inventory and test the on-board equipment. Ask for the assistance number and the instructions in the event of a breakdown or a closed road. On return, these photos serve as a reference for the condition check.
Hire a GO Camper van or 4x4 in Iceland with CoolDrive Nomad
