Thank you! 🙂 I look forward to more of your Iceland posts!

Hey Stef! I’m so glad you found it helpful! I’m planning to put together a couple more specific list-ish posts soon too, fyi.

Our car rental was ~$350 but we also had to rent a 7-person van which is substantially more expensive than regular car rentals. You should be able to grab one for much less, probably $150 or so. If you’re worried at all about driving on snow (which you might do just in parking lots or pulloffs on the Golden Circle) I’d opt for a wagon or SUV, but we never had any issues with the road even in our van.

I’d def go for it, once you get out of Reykjavik driving is very easy, it’s pretty much just 2-lane roads. And you can get a GPS in your car, and apparently even wifi for a small fee. We didn’t do the wifi but I imagine it would be a nice little feature if you wanted to use your phone and not worry about data, although I’m not sure how fast it would be.

If you post anything about your trip feel free to drop a link here, I’d love to read about it 🙂 Love the look of your blog too!
