The registered driver must be at least 20 years of age and have held a full driver´s license for at least 12 months (25 for motorhome).

Super Collision Damage Waiver (SCDW) will lower the own-risk fee in case of an accident. We always recommend purchasing at least the SCDW so as to lower the own-risk fee down to 50,000 - 175,000 ISK.
Gravel Protection (GP) will protect damage to windshield, headlights or body of the car. The self-risk fee if you purchase this extra insurance covers this type of damage. Whereas if you are not covered, CDW or SCDW self-risk fee will be applied. Not available for all vehicles.
Sand And Ash Protection (SAAP): In high winds and dry weather the ash from the volcanoes and sand in the south coast can cause huge damage to the cars and all the cost has fallen on the renter, until now. By purchasing SAAP the self-risk fee in case of damage from sand and ash is significantly lowered to 175,000 ISK.
PREMIUM & ZERO RISK Insurance Package: We highly recommend to hire either PREMIUM or ZERO option. Then you will have every insurance option at a very reasonable price.
