Traveler advice
Getting around
A rental car is a must if you want to travel in Iceland.
Any car will do during summer May-September. But in winter season October- April 4 x 4 car is a must . Suddenly changes in weather condition are more often than anyone can expect.
Rain, wind, snow and sun within one hour. Exciting ? Get car with good snow tires in winter season.
