4x4 grip, with clear F-road limits

The Motorhome Viking is a Ford Transit Carado CV590 with four-wheel drive and a manual gearbox, for extra grip on wet, icy or gravel roads. Even so, it’s only allowed on three F-roads: Route 35 (Kjölur), Route 550 (Kaldidalur), and Route 208 from the north towards Landmannalaugar, up to the river before the campsite. It seats four and sleeps two, and a fuel discount card is included.

“If it’s a 4x4, why can’t we take every F-road?”Many F-roads have deep river crossings and rough tracks that aren’t suitable for a motorhome. The three permitted routes are the ones it can handle safely.

A compact kitchen for two

The double-burner stove, a sink with running water and a 62-liter 12V fridge cover everyday cooking, and kitchenware is included.

The bed is 192 to 189 cm long and 147 cm wide, a comfortable double for a couple. There’s a toilet and a hot shower on board, and the heating system keeps the cabin warm through Icelandic nights. Bed linen is an add-on.

What travelers say

4.7 Rated Excellent by travelers for over 13 years

Great experience with Campervan Iceland

We rented a campervan via Campervan Iceland in August 2026 for a 10 day trip driving the ring road. The rental ending up being with Hertz and the collection / drop-off process was smooth with no issues. The van was in a great condition and well equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed the freedom it gave us. Highly recommend.

Good Customer Care

Had issues with the provider. Campervan Iceland customer care was always very punctual and cordial with us. They also ensured that we got appropriate compensation for the issues that we faced.

Very easy logistics- no issues at all

Great service

Great service, clean sleeping bag, clean car. The roads in Iceland can be a bit rough but the car was very good at that too. We enjoyed the car and the service.

Everything

Everything, from the booking to the drop-off date, was smooth and efficient. The Campervan was just perfect for us!

The best way to experience a trip across Iceland!

We rented a van Volksawagen Transporter that was fully equipped in July 2025 and it became my home on wheels for 15 days. I had online support at all time, with the possibility to chat with the campervan office through the provided tablet. They were very kind and the rental was very easy to manage, before my rental they kindly helped me with all my queries and questions. In addition they also had a lot of free products and food in the office left overs from other travelers. Campervan helped me experience my dream trip across Iceland.
