Reykjavik Car Rental

Whatever's your reason for visiting Reykjavik, a modern and reliable Enterprise car or van will make your trip more enjoyable. Having your own private rental car in Reykjavik will enable you to see and do much more in the time you have available. Travelers can choose from an extensive range of vehicles in order to suit their traveling needs. All of Enterprise's vehicles are modern, stylish, and completely dependable. Their range includes small family sedans, large SUVs, vans, and 9-seater people carriers, all of which, are available at attractive rental rates.

Most international visitors arrive in Iceland via Keflavik International Airport, which is located 30 miles southwest of Reykjavik. Enterprise has a car rental branch at Keflavik Airport, prominently located just outside the terminal building in Arnarvollur, Reykjanesbaer. They offer a superb selection of cars of every class, from economy to luxury. It's always best if visitors arrange a car rental from Enterprise car upon their arrival at the airport, as it allows them to complete their entire journey without the hassles of taxis and public transport. From the airport, driving to the capital city of Reykjavik is straightforward and can be done in around 45 minutes via Route 41.

Take a drive to Perlan, a dome-capped structure situated on Öskjuhlíð Hill that stands over 80 feet tall. Its museum and the 100-metre man-made cave built from snow and ice are fascinating and highly educational. Equally enjoyable is Perlan’s restaurant, as well as an excellent observation deck, which offers terrific panoramic views across the city of the ocean and distant volcanic hills, making it an ideal stop for photo opportunities. Tjörnin, another attraction in Reykjavik, is a pretty lake that's situated in the center of the city. Park at any of the several nearby parking areas and enjoy a stroll along the picturesque lakeside pathway.

Located just southeast of Reykjavik, Heiðmörk is a designated conservation area that’s well worth a short drive for an exciting visit. Park your car rental and wander through trails strewn with ancient lava remnants, while enjoying the unspoilt surrounding beauty of which Iceland is rightly renowned for. Mount Keilir is another notable stop outside of Reykjavik. It's a small, extinct volcano, but if you're feeling energetic, you can easily climb in and around it in roughly three hours. Its summit offers stupendous views of Iceland’s magnificent surrounding terrain, and you can easily drive there since it’s not far off the Reykjavik to Keflavik Airport route.

Reykjavik’s traffic flow is very well organised and decidedly calm, especially when compared to other capital cities. With a good city map or a navigation app, you can easily locate all of the interesting places you want to visit in and around the city. Getting there in your car rental will be no problem, especially if you avoid early morning and early evening rush hour times. There are plenty of parking spaces available throughout the city. Payment is usually made via parking meters or ticket machines, so keep some coins handy. Keep in mind that car parking prices are much less expensive if you park further away from the central shopping area of Laugavegur. Also, look out for free parking, which is often available throughout several city spots, including many of the city's museums, such as the National Museum and Maritime Museum.
