$34 Car Rental Downtown Reykjavik

Downtown Reykjavik is full of fun adventures, but don't restrict yourself to only one place. Grab a set of wheels and hit the open road to explore the wider area. Here are some great options:

• Selfoss is roughly 30 miles from Downtown Reykjavik. Notable sights like Kerid Crater deserve a place on your must-see list while you're in town.
• Why not see all that's on offer in Rangárþing eystra too? Major attractions in this colorful city include Skogafoss. Rangárþing eystra is about 65 miles from Downtown Reykjavik.
• Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon is located 170 miles from Downtown Reykjavik and is one of the region's most gorgeous nature spots. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the fresh air here.

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Iceland, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might 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: Be sure to read the fine print before driving away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
