Iceland with its capital Reykjavík is a destination for individualists. The island is ideal to be explored to the island on your own. With a hired car, which you have found in advance at low prices on the Internet via the price comparison, you are independent of local tour operators or public transport. Because the places on Iceland and especially Reykjavík, the capital of Iceland, are very special. There are no subways, trams or even a train connection to the International Airport KEF, which is about 50 minutes away by car. So you are well advised to hire a car on the island, as it offers you all the comfort you need to discover the interesting capital Reykjavík after your flight when you arrive in Iceland. Since you can usually reach Iceland International Airport with a flight from one of the major airlines, you should search in advance by comparing prices on the Internet for offers to get a cheap hired car directly on arrival at KEF Iceland Airport. This way you can start your holiday right away and easily reach your booked hotel in Reykjavík or one of the other places in the country. Once you have arrived at the hotel, your pre-booked hired car will be at your disposal for the entire holiday.

With a hired car through Icelands nature
The airport of Reykjavík is actually about 38 km away from the capital Keflavik. But it is international and from every major airport in Europe there is a flight to Keflavik Airport KEF on Iceland. Via the well-developed ring road, you can quickly reach your hotel in Reykjavík or the surrounding area from here with your pre-booked car hire at Reykjavík Airport by comparing prices on the Internet.
You can also easily reach the many sights of the capital. Even if it is the International Airport Iceland Keflavik KEF, it is not comparable with the major airports in the metropolises of Europe. The airport of Reykjavík is relatively manageable, so that the pick-up point of the car hire company is quickly found by you after your flight. The baggage belts for your suitcases and the car hire counters are very close together. However, the pick-up station for your hired car is not always staffed, depending on when your flight lands, it can be difficult to pick up here. Therefore, you should know in advance when the counters are busy. These are located to the right of the exits in the arrivals hall at Reykjavík Airport, and the car with its key is waiting for you in one of the car parks around the airport.
It is also possible, however, that the car hire company you have chosen to hire a car at a reasonable price may not have its own pick-up station at the airport. In such a case you will be picked up by an employee of this car hire company on request.
If you need to refuel directly after collecting the hired car, there are two petrol stations in Keflavik, not far from the airport in Hafnargata. However, they may not have continuous opening hours. These two petrol stations are conveniently located half a km from the International Airport KEF Keflavik/Reykjavík.
It is important if you would like to pick up a hired car at the International Airport Iceland KEF in Keflavik at the pick-up point of your chosen car hire company that you have already paid attention to various legal regulations that apply to Iceland when booking cheaply on the Internet. As a driver of a hired car in Iceland, you must be at least 20 years old and have held a driving licence for one year. Nevertheless, if you are under 25 years of age and hire the car as a driver, you will have to pay a young driver's fee. You will also have to pay a deposit when you pick up your car, which is usually paid by credit card and will be returned to you at the pick-up station at the airport.
Already when you are driving from the airport in Keflavik towards the hotel, you should be familiar with the traffic regulations. Because it's not fast. The streets are also quietly closed. You will not find any motorways or expressways here, but the ring road, which is very similar to a motorway, circles the whole country.
