Top tips for hiring a car from Europcar in Reykjavik

  • When booking a car through Europcar car rentals in Reykjavík, Iceland, note that, unlike other nearby European countries such as Ireland and the UK, they drive on the right-hand side of the road. If coming from the U.S., Canada, or other European countries, this may be relatively normal for you and make it a little easier to adjust. However, note that speed limits are in kph (kilometers per hour) and most signs will also have text in Icelandic, so be prepared to pick up on context clues or have a translator handy.
  • As a general rule, you must be 21 years old or older when booking a car through Europcar car rentals in Reykjavík. While you don’t need an international driver’s license, you do need a valid driver’s license from your home country. Restrictions may also apply if you’re under the age of 25. Minimum car insurance for your rental car is also required, which is commonly included with your rental agreement. However, you may want to purchase additional coverage, as Reykjavík and Iceland in general are known for unpredictable weather.

However, some areas outside of the city do have rugged and difficult terrain, so if you’re thinking about making the trek, a car with four-wheel drive is likely best.

However, not to worry, automatic cars (though less popular) are still available. Keep in mind that because they are not the norm, there may be fewer available.

Staff at pick up location were great - efficient, friendly, and helpful. Heated steering wheel and seats were appreciated.Reviewed 7 Jul 2026

I like the vehicle and the fact that both pickup and dropoff were easy and fast. I could have used more familiarization with the car since it was a plug-in hybrid. I had no idea how to charge it. I also would like to have known that there was no spare tire, only a "mobility kit" that didn't have any instructions. Finally, it would have been good to know about the per kilometer tax, which increased the cost of the rental beyond the estimate. I asked if km were unlimited, but was not told about the tax. I understand the tax amount could not be predicted because it was not possible to know how many km we would drive, but at least I would not have been surprised by the extra cost.Reviewed 11 Oct 2024
