What moves the price

Nights and car class. You are buying the itinerary and the hotels; the car category swings the total more than the route does.

Cheapest is not always right — a €50 saving hurts less than a wasted day. These are the low-price options we'd still put our name to.

Our honest take

If a self-drive package is the thing you came to Iceland for, pay the middle price rather than the floor — the difference usually buys a smaller group and a guide with time for you. If it's a nice-to-have on a day you're already busy, the cheapest option does the job. Either way, book it for a day early in your trip: if weather cancels it, you'll have another day to try again. Most of these run in Golden Circle, Reykjavík, South Coast, Snæfellsnes.

We sell 36 self-drive packages from 12 Icelandic operators. The cheapest is €73 per person, the typical price is €196, and the top end is €3,968. Nights and car class. You are buying the itinerary and the hotels; the car category swings the total more than the route does.

Is there a booking fee?

No. You pay the operator's own price and we take a commission out of it, so booking here costs the same as booking direct — with one checkout if you book several tours.

Can I get a refund if I cancel?

On most of these, yes: cancel more than 24 hours before and you get the full amount back. The exact rule belongs to the operator and is shown on each tour page before you pay.
