Where can I find an Akureyri car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking for a rental in Akureyri, we recommend reading the policies of the rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Akureyri?
Get your road trip off to a safe start by purchasing Expedia's collision protection. While there are all kinds of rental car insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for vandalism, accident damage and theft up to $35,000, as well as 24/7 emergency assistance. Don't wait until you get to the rental counter to insure your ride. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Akureyri ride with Expedia and save time and money.
Can I drive in Akureyri with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Iceland, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before sliding behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
