With its spectacular location on the Reykjanes Peninsula in the south-western corner of Iceland, the charming city of Keflavik is perfectly placed for visitors looking to discover the very best of the island. Located in very close proximity to Keflavik International Airport, it is an excellent base from which to explore the west coast of Iceland and the island's capital, Reykjavik, just 30 miles to the north-east. Keflavik is also within easy reach of many of Iceland's top attractions, most notably the Blue Lagoon, one of northern Europe's most spectacular geothermal swimming pools. The vibrant city of Reykjavik is home to some of the country's most important cultural sights, including the National Museum and the Settlement Exhibition portraying the island's history since the time of the Vikings. Don't miss Viking World, the city's excellent themed attraction featuring the impressive Íslendingur Viking ship, a replica of the famous 9th-century Gokstad ship excavated in Norway in 1882. Keflavik is also close to the Golden Falls (Gullfoss) where torrents of icy water thunder down from a height of more than 30 metres into the valley below, providing the selfie opportunity of a lifetime. With your car hire in Keflavik you can tour the island on the wonderful Ring Road (Route 1) for an amazing 860-mile motoring adventure passing jaw-dropping lunar landscapes, imposing snow-capped mountain ranges and some of the world's largest glaciers. And if you have time, head for Vatnajökull National Park in the south-east of the island, an area of head-spinning vistas featuring an ice cap three times the size of Luxembourg!

" No problems. "
" I made two separate bookings with Budget, picking up from Keflavik. A young woman helped us with the first pick up. She was very helpful and the car and drop off were also good. However, the young man helping us with the second booking seemed very disinterested and we were provided with a very old car that made quite a concerning noise when braking. I reported this when dropping the car off, as I was concerned about the safety of the vehicle for other customers. However, it was worrying to be given a car in such poor condition. "

" Should have a better coordination with Car rental to assure we get what we booked and paid for . "
" Firstly, we didn't get the car we booked . It was supposed to be Land Rover discovery sport 4x4 but they gave us Kia Sorrento instead . It's totally a different concept of car . Furthermore, we had to buy new insurance because the Agent said that they have nothing to do with the insurance included with our reservation because it's not purchased directly with Avis. "

" The man who gave us the car was vile. He was so rude and so unhelpful. He made us spend £50 extra which was unnecessary. The credit card didnt go through initially. He kept saying give me another card. So i had to use my card (Caroline, Martins wife) he then said he'd have to put it all in my name and add Martin as a driver. We saod to wait as martin eas authorising the credit card woth the banking app at the time. The man said its too late hes already done it. We told him not do it as we want to use Martin's credit card rather than my debit. He refused. He refused to give me his name. So because he was so unhelpful we were forced to spend £50 unnecessary when if he would of been a tiny little bit patient and helpful we could of authorised the bank (which literally too seconds). I was worried the whole trip because I had used a debit card for which their is no protection like there is with a credit card. Which put a damper on my holiday of a life time experience. "

" The counter staff at pickup were very pushy in trying to sell and convince me to take out additional insurance I had already declined.

I took the road assist out which I was told on 3 separate occassions was £2 a day for 7 days and then free after that, so capped at £14 for a 2 week hire. I was charged on return approx. £34. This charge was not seperately detailed and hard to discover. On repeated requests for the breakdown I finally got the detail and complained about the over charging. The manager informed me that I had been incorrectly advised by the counter staff but eventually agreed to reduce the cost to approximately £17 which I accepted but was still more than the £14 I was originally advised. In addition the billing process included other charges of approximately £30 which were not seperately detailed or explained. After several requests for the nature of the charges and being initally told this could not be provided I was told it was for use of tunnels but could not be told for which tunnels or how many uses. Eventually we collectively determined it was for two uses together with additional administration charges for non payment within 3 hours of use.

Not given clear directions to pick car up and spent half an hour trying to find it and asking bus drivers if they knew where I needed to go. This could have been just part of the language difference but not the best start. Perhaps a map to show where the car is held would help. Drop off staff were great, girl who took the car in was a pleasure to talk to, happy and helpful. "

" Auto Europe arranged the car hire via Budget. Apart from the fuel and toll surcharge issues the rest of the 'package' was fine. "
" On 'Pick up' I was advised that 'return empty' was no different (in terms of cost) from 'return full'. On 'Drop off' I was told that 'return empty' was much more expensive. To their credit, the staff changed the 'paperwork' and let me go and refuel. We incurred a toll charge for a tunnel. The payment didn't 'work'. The charge was ISK 1500. Budget added ISK 2500 surcharge to this. "

" Generally a very unpleasant experience and I'll never use Budget or Avis ever again. "
" The lies we were told by the staff member of staff while picking up our rental car was unbelievable! The sole motivation was to make us purchase optional extras such as sand and ash protection (which was £200 for 4 days). For example, we were told that we didn't have windscreen damage waiver included and needed this extra cover. Windscreen cover was included in our original package. We were told the state of the roads were terrible in Iceland when in fact they're better than the UK. We were told we wouldn't be charged for fuel if the car was returned with a full tank yet £77 was taken from my credit card which I'm still trying to get back. Our Hyundai i10 had 90,000 miles on the clock and a cracked windscreen when we picked it up – which is very dangerous, especially with the high winds in Iceland. Not surprised that this damage wasn't marked on the contract when we picked up the key as no one would accept this! "

" The experience with Auto Europe was ok. However you are promoting a terrible company who is happy to rip off customers to be greedy and make more money for themselves. I will never go near Avis ever again - they ruined our holiday and completely scammed us. "
" 1. Avis lied to us and told us we would need a GPS at £20 as we wouldn't get signal in Iceland with our phones. We had 4G at the top of a glacier. they knowingly ripped us off 2. They made us buy additional insurance and never refunded us for the first lot of insurance we paid for 3. They miss sold us SCDW and said that our standard CDW would not cover us. They lied to us and mislead us on purpose. They said that we would have to pay £1600 on normal CDW should there be any damage however we had excess reimbursement on the original cover 4. They made us buy sand and ash protection when we didn't need it. I know they have to make money off insurance as they don't make money on rentals but a company with some integrity would advise what you do and don't need. We didn't leave the city in the car and the weather was good - we did not need this cover 5. We tried to contact Avis to discuss this and their customer services team would not help us and said that we were wrong. They would not let us speak with management or escalate the complaint and they ended up putting the phone down with us. 6. We were totally fooled into hiring a 'Budget' vehicle and they totally shafted us on insurance - totally unfair and unreasonable company and the worst experience I have ever had in my life. "

" Even though I had intentionally purchased the extra insurance with Auto Europe, and I showed the voucher to the counter staff, we were told at the counter that we had no insurance and should not take the vehicle without upgrading to Avis's insurance. This ended up costing us an additional £415 for the rental period!! Almost the same as the original price paid. In addition, I was not given a chance to actually read the contract I was signing, as the agent kept scrolling through all the text on the ipad and only stopped for me to sign on the line at the bottom. This lead to me unintentionally and unknowingly agreeing to be charged in GBP rather than local currency, which increased the price of the additional insurance and 2nd driver by £35 because Avis add their own 7% conversion fee on top!! Not once was I made aware of this, and I am furious! I have complained to Avis about this, but was just told that I'd signed the agreement and that's it. I feel totally ripped off and will NEVER rent through Avis again. I'm also in two minds about my Auto Europe experience, as I was under the impression that I would only have to pay for the additional driver at the counter, nothing else. "

Good points, immediately fixed brake noise in Reykjavik, paid for wheel rim repair and new tyres with no fuss..had taken out full insurance. Polite. helpful getting us to airport quickly. "

" Handy comparison website which found a cheaper option than any other comparison website. "
" Cheapest price for auto car I could find Car was brand new and cheap to fill. Reliable for our trip but could not drive on some of the roads as they were gravel or had lots of potholes. There was no one at the airport to meet us when we initially arrived and so had to wait around for half an hour or so for someone to turn up with the shuttle. Waited in line at the Procar shop to pick up our car for approx 2 hours. All staff were very determined to upsell on insurance which was very expensive. Not necessary in summer I think. Drop off was fairly efficient as it was 4:30am but we had to wait for the shuttle to fill up with other people before they would take us to the airport. Not great if you're in a rush for a flight. "

" Great trip in Iceland made possible by rental of car. Pro car in all are a very good company to deal with. "
" Transfers to and from airport very efficient. Friendly staff. Main drawback was expensive insurance cover with a bit of a hard sell at the desk. But when I advised them I had alternative cover waivers were signed and all was well. "

" Excellent & Hassle Free. No Hidden Extras & cover you for everything & a great partnership with Procar. "
" Fantastic Service From Professional Staff, they made you feel welcome to their wonderful country. Brand New Car also supplied. GPS Available which is a must. Would Not have enjoyed our trip without a car & Procar added to the enjoyment "
" Very Good service and brand new car. "
" Very kind people, expecially the driver who took me to the airport. Very good service and brand new car. "
" The car we had was a bit long in the tooth for a rental with over 90,000Km on the clock. We were unable to select 2 wheel drive so probably used more petrol than we should have. "
" We waited for ten minutes before anyone turned up to greet us, then had a to wait another ten minutes for the shuttle bus. Car OK, but customer service a bit lazy. They told us to read the small print of the rental contract rather than talk us through it. On returning the car with a full tank, we were told that the fuel gauge was showing not quite full (although it looked the same to us as when we picked it up). We declined their offer to fill it up for us for a 'small' charge (I think they charge 5000 krona plus any additional fuel, which was written in the small print). We backtracked to the nearest fuel station where we put in just over 1 litre of diesel to top the car up to brim full! The fuel gauge did not move. "
" The booking went fine. The service from the company we hired from, ProCar, was great. "
" Very easy site to use and found the best deals very easily. "
" Brilliant service and friendly staff at Procar Keflavik. "
" All handled quickly and efficiently "
" Staff at the hire depot were efficient, helpful and friendly. I was surprised and pleased with the whole experience. "
" Smoothly run service, easy to organize. "
" Nice vehicle that handled the icy roads of Iceland very well. Only downside, additional insurance on arrival (optional) that was severely excessive. "
" As above relating to insurance. "
" I had just noticed 'Super' excess cover now which I hope will be better. I can thenj get all-inclusive through Auto-Europe. Before when glass and wheels were not covered, counter cover was best. "
" Procar are not at the airport but 5 minutes drive away - this was unclear but we soon found our driver waiting for us. Our specialist car was ready when we arrived and we were very quickly on our way. Everything went smoothly "
" very competitive prices "
" worth the short drive to depot to pick up car - saved a fortune! and even got a free car upgrade "
" Easy and simple to use website and always the best prices. Service is Costa Rica, USA and now Iceland has always been first class. "
" Every aspect of this transaction was excellent from the staff picking us up at the airport to the staff and at the office both at the beginning and the end of the trip. Everybody was clear and very helpful. I've used auto-europe before and will always use them in the future "
" All very easy. "
" Good company. Met at airport. New & clean well maintained car. Friendly staff. "
" Excellent Service and good value for money. "
" Friendly staff. Great service. Brilliant car (new). 100% satisfied. "
" Had to phone up to chase the issuing of the voucher, and the person on the phone seemed slightly confused by the situation, but it did get sorted all fairly efficiently. "
" No problems at all no pushy sales, plenty of explanation where requested, even got a free GPS that we weren't expecting. "
" At the time of booking we were given a free Sat Nav, we could not have done without it! Great pick up from airport to car and back again on the way back. Excellent pick up drop off experience. "
" Great price, great little car, excellent service, would defiantly use again. Well done Procar :) "
" Great service as usual. "
" Nice people. "
" We booked a car through Auto Europe about 7 months before our trip to Iceland. Everything was organised online and the website and process for finding a car was simple and well laid out. It was quick and easy to find a car we wanted at a great price. Payment was taken swiftly and all confirmations and relevant documents were sent out almost immediately. Would definitely recommend to our friends and family, and we will be using you again ourselves in the future. Thanks for a hassle-free hire! "
" ProCar was excellent. We had a Hyundai i20 from them which was clean and well presented. We were ran through the usual bodywork checks before and after the hire. They were very clear about their policies and ready to answer any questions we had. The staff were friendly and very helpful, and included a GPS unit even thought it wasn't part of our hire. We were very happy with the service provided by ProCar and would definitely hire from them again. "
" Easy use of the website "
" Would have been good to have been given a map. "
" Efficient booking system and good value for money "
" Prompt service both at pick up and drop off "
" Auto Europe staff were also helpful throughout this process and i would definitely use this site again. "
" the first car i was given was not to my satisfaction, i took it back to procar and the staff were professional, helpful and courteous with ensuring i left with a car that i was happy with. Very pleased with their customer service. The airport pick up and drop off service worked well too. "
" Great service "
" Fantastic company "
" Have used many times and always good and finding a good local deal but still high quality. "
" Most impressed. A great car for a really good price. Price included winter tyres (essential for Iceland in April) and GPS. A fantastic deal. "
" Very easy to book and great price. Will be my first stop next time I hire I a car in Europe! "
" The hire firm was Pro-Car and their pick up was waiting for us on I arrival and a 5 Minute transfer to their offices. Very friendly and helpful. We had a free upgrade to a 4x4 which was a real treat for our drives to the Golden Circle and Vik - As we had snow, sleet, wind and sunshine. Thanks to everyone there. "
" Clear instructions and comms. "
" ProCar were efficient, waiting for us at the airport arrivals, immediately whisked away to collect our car. Model was as booked (upgraded to auto), clean and new. Return was just as easy. "
" Easy to navigate website and competitive price "
" Great service, good car and as expected new clean condition. Free pick up and drop off from procar depot to airport (5 mins drive) was great. "
" Excellent service prior to going abroad and very competitive rate. Would use again "
" Brilliant service. Very efficient, easy to pick up and drop off of rental vehicle. Had been told that vehicle would come with map of Iceland so didn't take a road map with me. The one provided was small and not detailed and had I know this would have taken one of my own as would have been beneficial. Great Service though "
" great, cheap, easy "
" The car was not road worthy. The windscreen wiper fell off when it was first switched on in a snow storm in the middle of no where! The passenger door whistled so loudly and had a massive draft. The boot wouldn't open. Generally, the car was in a sorry state. It also hadn't been cleaned properly and there was chewing gum between the seats - nice! "
" Very straightforward, no problems at all. Good service. "
" Excellent company, would use again. "
" Nice and easy. "
" All was good. Unfortunately we made a mistake and needed to add an extra day on to our hire. I felt that the extra day charge was extremely high compared to the overall rental, especially as it was just a phone call and all was done. The car was great and all else was great, just expensive for our extra day. "
" Excellent Service "
" Very helpful staff. Good spec of car and model as expected. "
" Punctual,friendly. A very good start to our break. Thank you. "
" See above. "
" Easy to book "
" Very helpful staff,clean and reliable vehicle "
" Very efficient service and a good price. "
" Staff very pleasant and efficient. Vehicle was auto rather than manual, but otherwise very happy with it. "
" They were quite helpful when I called them when Procar did not turn up at the airport. "
" Procar were a mixed bag. They did not turn up for over an hour after we had landed despite us telling them our flight number. However, it was a young guy who picked us up and he was friendly and apologised and gave us a sat nav as a way of apology which was great. We got hit when we were parked and someone from another Procar came and helped us out which was very helpful, they took care of the paperwork and spoke to the driver who drove into our car. Quite helpful and nice people. "
" Easy to use and I would recommend. "
" Very friendly and helpful staff at airport. Nice modern car so did not fear any problems with motoring around Iceland. They should tell you however that the fuel point at the airport only accepted card payment. Drop off was fine and they allowed me to drop the keys ahead of the que as I was running a little late..I just hope they never found any problems. I did leave the car fuelled and clean so all should be good. I would definitely recommend avis. "
" The Hyundai i10 was a very comfortable and reliable car and we enjoyed our time viewing the scenes of Iceland. The customer service was all good. "
" Fantastic service! Definitely will recommend to others. "
" Great service, car was in an excellent condition which allowed me to enjoy my trip! "
" The sevice I recived from you was top rate. The whole proceedure was easy and faultless. I had a query which your staff replied to and delt with in record time in my opinion second to none. I have booked marked you as my prefered Car Rental, will use you from now on 10/10 "
" Pro Car were great, met me at the Airport on time, the car supplied was in top condition inside and out. Only one niggle, They have not been set up at the location long, so finding them to return the car was a bit tricky they could do with a flag or something of that nature as you pass them thinking it is a Hotel/Motel but as to the service 10/10 I am planing to return to Iceland later in the year and will be booking Pro Car through Auto Europe for this trip.
