That's awesome! Blue car has great prices, great cars, and great customer service. Be sure to check out my other KZfaq videos and my website for even more suggestions! icelandwithaview.com/

@@IcelandwithaView we will definitely use your ebook and the map for Iceland. You just have things so organized and make it a breeze for people to plan out the trip. My wife only watches your videos and tells me how informative your content is. Thank you!

Sound amazing - I love Iceland in September!

Hi Graecy! Were you able to use the code as well?

@@Mr.Mo.. yes we did 😊

@@Graecy thank you!!

I will be releasing a camping video soon!

Thank you!

Great to hear - wifi is the way to go!

I'm glad that you had a good experience!

Great Bryant, happy I could help! Glad to hear you had a great trip!

Thank you for watching!

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Thanks for watching, even if it is in secret 🤫🤫🤫

Hey Varun, so glad to hear you booked through Blue Car! Definitely let me know how it goes and have the best trip ever :)

@@IcelandwithaView hi! Got back last week after our 8 day trip to Iceland! Blue car guys were awesome! The paperwork was smooth, car was great.. They even dropped me to my place at Keflavik after I returned the car.. Definitely recommended.. Also overall, we had a great time! Thanks a lot for all your awesome videos!

@@varunanirudhan3716 Hello varun! I wanted to ask what kind of car you booked and what insurance coverage you chose??

@@oh0my Hi.. Just saw ur message.. The invoice says "CDW, GP, LIABILITY WAIVER MEDIUM/LARGE, SCDW, TP". But honestly I have no clue now what all that means.. Remember researching a lot and finalizing on this. Its been more than a year now! Hope this helps. The car was a BMW x1, good enough for a family of four, although it gets a bit cramped behind once you have the baby seat on, which was mandatory in our case.. Make sure u get their 4g device, u won't need a sim there..

Hey varun, was ur indian driver's license valid there or u had to do something else to get permit?

Best to check with your rental company - I’d hate to be responsible for your decision on that one because it can be expensive if there’s damage you have to pay for.

Thanks for watching! November is getting short on daylight hours and can have some big storms, but it’s not a bad time to visit. Check out this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jrqpa8iDttWZmok.html

We loved the Jimny! Such a great vehicle and so photogenic ;)

Thanks for watching!

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

Def add that insurance

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.

Happy to hear that - wifi + google maps is the only way to go!

what car rental company did you book? would you recommend it?

@@oh0my The company was called „Cozy Campers“. Everything went great with them, I’d totally recommend it ☺️

Waste of money .unless you travel directly to volcano .i declined all insurances traveled for 1 week you should see places i got to so don waste your money .get darker colour if you can .sad car was good

Thanks for the idea!

My preferred partner, Blue Car, has a whole fleet of EV cars to choose from. You can check them out here: bit.ly/IcelandCarDiscount

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 ~!

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.

You have to check with your credit card to get specifics and then make sure the rental company would let you decline their insurance. Every situation is different.

Always depends on how many days! Watch my 2wd vs 4wd video.

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 hello@icelandwithaview.com 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!

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!

@@IcelandwithaView Thx tons for your prompt reply, that will be of great help for me.

hey harp campsites and stores 🌝

Your camvpervan company should give you a map of the campsites and it should state which ones have showers on site.

What is helpful about a bias reccomendation?

Kim Caspar i really like her vids. She’s great but I’m sorry u don’t like this vid. There are plenty more videos on KZfaq though and I’m sure you’ll find some that you really enjoy. Hope you have a great day

You have to check with your credit card to get specifics and then make sure the rental company would let you decline their insurance. Every situation is different.

Please reach out to your car rental company - they will be able to tell you the capabilities of their vehicles on your planned routes.

@@IcelandwithaView thanks 🤍

Hi Sara! Great question! Here is my affiliate link with Blue Rental to help answer your question based on your preference! bit.ly/IcelandCarDiscount

Hi there! Wi-Fi is great almost everywhere you'll want to go. I'm not certain on the Mbs exactly but a quick Google search will show you maps of coverage. Happy planning!

I'd suggest either clearing your cache or use a different browser to see the different pricing.

Hi there! Thanks so much for watching and subscribing! Google Maps is great almost everywhere! Apple Maps needs some improvement. Just make sure you have connection too the internet (check out this video for options on how to connect: icelandwithaview.com/5-wi-fi-internet-options-iceland/). Internet connectivity is strong and consistent in almost every area of Iceland you're planning to travel. Petrol cost will depend on the type of vehicle you're driving. Your route is roughly 1,500 km and petrol costs can be found here: www.globalpetrolprices.com/Iceland/gasoline_prices/ ~ Be sure to check out my website for even more planning resources, travel guides, maps with all the places I recommend, pre-written itineraries, and even custom itinerary planning services (icelandwithaview.com/). Happy planning!

There are lots of choices for this; I would encourage you to do a search to see what works for your group. The companies are generally very good at helping you assess your needs.

I personally love the Defender! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mc-dg9Ny3a6Wgp8.html

@@IcelandwithaView ok i agree maybe but i meant the new land rover defender 2022 not this older monster you drove

Great question! You'll definitely want to check with the rental car company directly on that. Happy travels!

You have to be 20 years old to rent a car and 23 to rent the big cars so you’ll be good with a normal car

It's best to check with the rental car company directly as each one may have different options. 🙂

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.

@@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.
