Icerental 4x4 is an innovative car rental company specializing in 4x4 vehicles in Iceland. Founded in 2013, our family-owned business began with only 10 cars. Since then, Icerental 4x4 has grown a lot, with a big rental office near the Keflavik International Airport, where we offer a wide range of vehicles in all sizes and model years. Our passion is 4x4, and our fleet is based on quality 4x4 cars. However, we also provide vans and smaller vehicles to fulfill all your transportation needs while visiting Iceland. In 2014 we started with our Camper Jeep, offering Jeeps to camp in while exploring the highlands. This idea evolved into Roof Tent campers, and in 2017, we introduced our Roof Tent vehicles in various sizes. These are the perfect way to explore Iceland during the summertime—our 4x4 Roof Tent vehicles allow you to see the highlands and Iceland’s untouched nature. We at Icerental 4x4 are committed to offering the best quality 4x4 vehicles at reasonable rates. We believe in personal service based on building relationships with our customers.

Excellent value for money. The price was very competitive compared to other rentals we had looked into before making our decision. We rented a Dacia Duster 4x4 with a roof tent (for 10 days) and overall had a positive experience. On our second day we got a low tire pressure warning; we fixed it ourselves by inflating the tire at a gas station. We didn’t receive much assistance from the rental company for this specific problem, but I trust that for more serious issues they would be quicker and more supportive. Aside from that, the car was comfortable, clean, and easy to manoeuvre, even on F-roads and in windy conditions.
The roof tent was great: the mattress and pillow were comfortable, and it was spacious enough for two people (you can sit inside without having to duck). We slept well, and I’ve even seen couples using the same tent with a child in the middle. However, if you’re taller than about 1.90 m, you might find that your feet touch the upper part of the tent, which is directly exposed to the outside, and tends to get cold and slightly damp overnight. Closing the tent every day was a bit tricky, but nothing serious. It’s part of the experience.
Personally, I wouldn’t choose the sleeping bags as an extra again. We didn’t find them very warm and ended up feeling cold at night. If you have better sleeping bags at home, I’d recommend bringing them, or—at almost the same price—making a quick stop at IKEA to buy a warm duvet. We weren’t very lucky with the weather and had several cold, rainy, and windy nights (which is still normal with Iceland’s extremely variable weather, even in late June/early July when we were there).
Overall, it was a choice we were happy with. The car was exactly what we were looking for in order to have a comfortable 10 days road trip, and we really enjoyed our first experience with a roof tent. We definitely felt the cold, but the setup is charming and more comfortable than you might expect. Customer service could certainly be improved, but thanks to the great value for money and the quality of the vehicle, I would recommend this rental company to a friend.
Fast and friendly turn over at car pick up and drop off. The shuttle from the airport was also fast.
Easy and quick pick up. Return of the car was hassle free and quickly got away to the airport using their shuttle bus.
Perfect Car, Dacia Duster 4x4, very good experience, no problems.
Check in was easy, cost was very reasonable and car was in good condition. We always use ICERENTAL 4x4 and have had great experiences.
It was good!
Easy and affordable with premium insurance for safety!
The Assistance in the office was fine, but the handiger of such ann’old’ rental car that in even had a broken taillight and faulty wimper blades, was not correct.
At the beginning, a oroblem with the date, Î’m arrived, no car, only the following day.
I found a solution with the boss, and I began my travel with a comfortable car, 4x4, with a tent on the roof, perfect.
I drived 14 days on 4200 kilometers.
Smooth and easy pickup service at the airport and drop off once we return the car. I did fill an element of anxiety associated with the potential damage that could be caused through elements with the weather and this felt very reflected in the hard sell that goes with all the additional insurance premiums, despite advising that we had our own excess insurance and already buying the breakdown service in advance. That loses them a star. Otherwise the car was a bit basic but did the job. Smooth ride and clean (if a bit bruised and battered by other drivers previously ;) . Thanks and would use again on a return trip.
The booking process was simple and transparent. The automated email communication was just as straightforward. At the airport, we had to wait about 20 minutes to pick up the car at the local Icerental rental office. That was perfectly fine. The rental car was old and had over 120,000 kilometers on it, but it drove very well and had no mechanical issues. So it worked out great. The roof tent was also fine and stayed watertight and warm even at zero degrees.
Conclusion: The value for money was totally fine. The promised service was good too, and the rental process was straightforward. Everything was great!

We enjoyed our camper van.
It was a bit of a rough start but once we got rolling it was great. The staff are charismatic and helpful. We did have to call into get some things sorted and they were attentive and got us on our way again. The return process was smooth and quick
Friendly and helpful employee. I didn't have to wait too long. No discussion about additional insurance. I booked everything at home.
