    I have used Lava Car Rental twice now, and both times have been exceptional. They offer some of the best prices in Iceland and their service has always been top-notch. Cars are clean and function perfectly. Adding an instructional video on getting to the shuttle bus from the airport was the only issue I've had, and they have created that as well.

    We just got back from a two-week road trip around Iceland. Our rental vehicle from Lava Car was excellent! We were in a brand new Dacia Duster. It performed as expected. And we received great service from Lava. They even provided weather updates when a giant snow storm hit the country.

    Great services and friendly staff. Lava already was one of the better car rental services in Iceland and one of the few that would provide a 4x4 to people younger than 25 years. We had a new model Dacia Duster and had no troubles whatsoever.

    Lava Car rental was the best car rental experience we have had to date. They made everything super easy from start to finish. They pick you up straight from the airport to the car lot to get checked in. Everyone we encountered was super friendly which was so appreciated after a long day of travel. You definitely get a great car and service for a great price. Highly recommend and would definitely utilize them again! Thank you!!!

    Excellent service. I was able to book with a debit card which suited me. A shuttle picked us up from the terminal and brought us to our vehicle. Smooth pickup with no issues. Likewise on return. The shuttle dropped us back at the terminal. Highly recommend.

    We recently hired a vehicle and were very pleased with it. Great service from the team. Pick up from airport was fine once we figured out correct place to wait for shuttle bus ( our error). Smooth and quick handover and easy to exit the airport area. Drop off again was smooth and efficient Would highly recommend.

    Very good experience, it was easy to find the pick-up location after arriving at the airport. It was only a few minutes away from the airport to the car rental company, and the staff was very enthusiastic. Everything went smoothly. The price was also very affordable.

    Very easy to rent a vehicle, pre booked before we landed. Company picked us up from the airport and car was just as booked. 24/7 help line for any issues. We had an issue with the boot on the second day but the rental sorted it straight away.
