Why not buy the sand and ash coverage. You say no one buys that but I read all the time that the blowing sand can be a real problem. Great info. Thanks Jeannie!

[@chrisharder4854]

Def add that insurance

[@lindatodd8089]

I think she said, "No one INCLUDES that" and I took this to mean that none of the car rental companies automatically include S&A coverage in the basic price and therefore the consumer needs to add it. She mentions this at the time when she says Blue includes most of the insurance already in the final price. S&A is the only additional optional insurance. And yes, I'd say best to add it for sure.

Thanks for recommending Blue Car. My sons and I just got back from Iceland and our BlueCar experience was great. We got the price discount by using the link you provided and also saved on gas. Great advice!

[@hamburgsperle324]

Definitely choose the WiFi over the GPS device! (You won’t need WiFi with a EU-wide cell phone contact though, the mobile internet service in Iceland is great! We didn’t have a WiFi device and definitely didn’t need one). We did rent a gps though - which was COMPLETELY useless. Fortunately we got a full refund for it from the rental company which was very nice. The GPS didn’t even know major secondary streets, even if they were paved and led to towns or famous tourist attractions. We endet up only using google maps - most of the time with the „Iceland with a view“-Overlay or the Happy Campers Overlay that showed the campgrounds :) That was the perfect way to find our way around! We just got back home today and I‘m so sad that our trip is over :(

Gas quote in video was spot on- was in IS in April and paid $120ish American for a full tank (RAV4 4x4). We did not realize PIN # I’d required when using credit cards- almost disaster for us from the gas point of view. Blue Car Rental was great experience.

One more important thing... when you rent a vehicle in Iceland you will not get any car documents like registration certification (that you need to have in Europe). I was quite confused after I get the car... they left me just with car keys. But it is OK.

Hello Genie I finally got out of jail in Iceland. I found out weed is very illegal. Please make a video about this because weed is legal in the states but NOT in Iceland and results in jail time. I found this out because I went to jail in Iceland.

[@haydenhayden8872]

Good. Weed is not legal in the states ( it is illegal at federal level ) with various exemptions at state level. You should have checked before traveling. In some countries the consequences are much worse. I've been to jail in us, how was iceland jail ?

[@apeel2008]

When you refer to a ‘WiFi Device’ for the car rental rather than a GPS, is the WiFi Device basically something that has a built in data plan that uses cellular service that you can then use to connect your phone to the internet over WiFi from the car and cellular between the car and the outside world? Does it also let you make voice calls and text messages or is it only a data plan for internet access. Finally, is a phone with a cell service SIM card plus a car with Apple CarPlay offer an alternative to the extra cost of a ‘WiFi Device’ from the car rental company.

[@IcelandwithaView]

Hi there! Check out this video for more info and to get my discount on Trawire Wi-Fi device rental: icelandwithaview.com/5-wi-fi-internet-options-iceland/ But, to answer your questions... a Wi-Fi device for rent (either from the car rental company or Trawire) is about the size of a cell phone and is a portable mobile hotspot. You can remove it from the car and take it with you on a hike or in a restaurant! It connects to the internet via Wi-Fi, not cellular data. The device will need to be charged just like your phone and first you'll connect the device to the internet and then you'll connect your phone to the device via Bluetooth. With a Wi-Fi device you will NOT be connected to the cellular network. However, you may still make calls as long as your phone allows Wi-Fi calling. You can also use services like FaceTime and Skype to speak to others. I'm not entirely sure about texting but iPhone to iPhone "texting" will be fine with a Wi-Fi device. iPhone to Android or vice versa may not work without being connected to the cell network. One of the best (and cost effective) reasons to rent a Wi-Fi device is that it allows multiple phones, tablets, and laptops to connect to it for the same price. So, you and your travel partner can BOTH be connected to the internet almost anywhere in the country via the Wi-Fi device for roughly $10 USD per day. A SIM card connects to the internet via cellular data and one SIM card will need to be purchased for each phone you're wanting to use while in Iceland. The cellular network is quite reliable all around Iceland and you'll be able to make calls, texts to any phone, video calls, and web browsing. HOWEVER, SIM cards also have a cellular data limit so you'll need to be aware of your usage and "top-off" if/when you're getting closing to the limit. AND, many newer phones are not equipped with a physical SIM card. Check to see if your phone requires a physical SIM card or an eSIM. I believe AppleCarPlay will work regardless of you being connected to the internet via Wi-Fi device or SIM card. As long as you're connected to the internet in some way, you should be able to connect to AppleCarPlay via Bluetooth, and all will work fine. Maybe reach out to the car rental company to verify this.

[@apeel2008]

@@IcelandwithaView thank you so much for the detailed response. I did watch the linked video and it was most helpful as well. I understand that connection to the device from your phone would be via WiFi, but wifi does not have that sort of coverage to cover all of Iceland. So I would bet that it connects to the internet via a cellular data network like LTE or faster from the WiFi device, essentially acting as a WiFi Hotspot, but perhaps not a voice cellular network. I guess that the connection to the internet is basically transparent to the user, so it may seem to be going over wifi. In any event, I have all of the info I need to explore my options now. Thanks so much. BTW … I do plan on purchasing your ebook / interactive map once I know for sure that I am going to Iceland with my wife (working out final plans now).

@@IcelandwithaViewWiFi is just how your device connects to the device that is connected to the internet, it’s not the internet itself. I just looked up Trawire and they use a cellular network.

[@shecklund]

Can you do the Westfjords in a medium size motorhome?

[@IcelandwithaView]

Hi Laura! Great question! I'm guessing that you're interested in going to the Westfjords in the summer, correct? If so, you should be fine in a medium-sized motohome/campervan. Many of the roads are rough which may make for an uncomfortable ride and be sure everything (and everyone) is secured but there is only one F-road that you'd be prevented from traveling on unless your campervan is a 4x4. Use my 10% discount code (IWV10) with Happy Campers to rent one of their campervans ~ bit.ly/ReserveHappyCampers ~!

[@lorischlegelmilch]

Thank you for the Blue Car Rental recommendation. Here in the US and the midst of the pandemic I got nervous weather a car would be available when My cousin and I got to Iceland in May 2021. I had first booked on line with Expedia...then heard of all the cancellations and advice to go through the company direct. I called Blue and spoke to a great guy who assured me our 4wd/automatic would be there. Your discount helped too. We drove a brand new KIA Sportage over 3000Km in 2 weeks! They included a wifi hotspot that we could take into our Airbnb's...that was also an unexpected pleasure as not all the Air Bnb's had unlimited wifi. This was our 2nd trip, and I hope there will be more to come. With out your videos, I don't think we would have had the courage to take on these trips.

[@chrisharder4854]

Does the car need to be cleaned ( car wash) before returning? Thinking about perhaps some mud on it from the road..Do they charge for that? Taking pix at pickup or filming is also a great tip

[@IcelandwithaView]

Hi Chris! A car wash is always a good idea before returning your rental car, especially if you've been driving the Ring Road, but if you buy ALL of the insurance coverage, the rental company will take the car back in whatever condition! There are a few self-wash stations, specifically at gas stations, around the city.

Hi Evan!!! I am VERY excited to hear about your journey around the Ring Road in an EV! Please let me know how it goes (email [e-mail] or send me a DM on Instagram @icelandwithaview). Many travelers are wanting to know about the "hassle" of charging while on the road and although Iceland is great with clean energy, I've questioned the infrastructure of charging stations. Blue Car is starting to promote their EVs more and more because it's becoming a more popular and desired means of traveling. Obviously I've not made the journey myself in an EV so I'm very curious about how your experience goes. And, since you've already traveled the Ring Road, you have a great comparison and the knowledge of the pros and cons. Again, please keep me updated! Happy planning!

[@IcelandwithaView]

Hi there! Great questions! Yes, please book your rental car BEFORE your trip! You may be able to get a car upon arrival but considering that your trip is during peak travel season, your selection of vehicles will be limited. Best to not risk it and reserve in advance. You can definitely pick up the car at Keflavik and drop it off elsewhere - just be sure the rental agency has a location wherever you plan to drop it off. There may be an extra fee as well to pick up and drop off at different locations. Happy planning!

I rented and purchased a month ago, and now my reservation is lost and not showing in any system. Had to find a last minute company and claim fraud on my account. Consider removing this video or updating link.

Is the ring road and map a PDF file? I cannot find it on my Apple site.

I really messed - my auto rental has poor reviews and 1 star ratings. Ugh! Not sure if I should cancel as my trip is a week from now. Found Jeannie too late!

[@FrugalTravellers]

Great, informative video. We'll be checking out all of your others. Keep up the great work! 😁

I just booked a car with Blue Car Rental and the LWV code did not work. On the receipt under discount, nothing shows up?

Mike Kuhl you have to use the hashtag! #LWV

[@mikekuhl2658]

@@IcelandwithaView Thanks! I will send them a email and see if they can adjust my reservation.

What do you mean by Wifi device? I thought all phones had at least 3G/4G built in, so why bother renting a device?

Hello, I am looking to rent a large SUV / AWD / Super Jeep big enough for 6 people to fit comfortably but having no luck finding something to match it. Do you have any recommendations where I might be able to find them. I have seen some large Super Jeeps in videos but cant find any rentals for them. Price is not the biggest concern, we just want to be able to travel comfortably. Thanks in advance.

Has anyone has luck with coupon code? I certainly haven’t. Keep up the great work though.

Mind explaining why noone is buying sand & ash? Was this option added after the volcano eruption 10'? and btw your referral code is not working.

[@sandraburnstein399]

What is the discount code for Blue Car Rental?

[@Kochharsahab18]

Can you tell me which camper company iceland is best??? Happy or kuku or any other ??

[@ikzip1]

Maybe u should mention tires - it’s a bit of a rip off in Iceland…

[@AmnesteyFireworks]

If I am coming from the U.S. do I need to get a different sim card for my iphone to get signal and accurate directions in iceland? Ive read about problems somewhere else.

[@EricBKirkland]

Brandon Smith Media following.

[@IcelandwithaView]

Yes you will need a local SIM card to get signal.

[@EricBKirkland]

Brandon Smith Media I have Verizon. They also have a plan that says it will work in Iceland. It does say speed may be dropped to 2G

[@djammarek]

Are gas prices the same in the entire country or which one is the cheapest to go to?

[@anaisost4673]

Is it true that you need a license with at least 12 months?

[@jamesloki9320]
