Explore the Ring Road with a car rental in Iceland

In a recent article featured on Telegraph Travel, Iceland’s Ring Road was rated as one of “The 10 best driving holidays in Europe”. Route 1 (otherwise known as the Ring Road) is a 1,332 km stretch of road that circumnavigates the island, surrounded by waterfalls, glaciers, volcanoes, black sand beaches, and at the right time of year, the northern lights. Being free to explore the captivating landscape on a self-drive tour is the ultimate way to experience Iceland, and Blue Car Rental offers a wide variety of vehicles for every trip and every budget.

The interior of the south coast features a plethora of glaciers and volcanoes with waterfalls sprinkled in between. The east is an untamed wilderness of snowy mountain peaks, frolicking reindeer and roads that wind through fjords. The hot pots of the North are as blue as the sky and the vast craters make for an excellent hike. And the West is lined with small fishing villages and walking trails along dramatic coastal cliffs.

Typically, self-drive tours of Iceland begin and end in the capital Reykjavík, which sits next to the Reykjanes peninsula: home to the popular Blue Lagoon as well as Keflavík international airport. With offices at Keflavik airport as well as downtown Reykjavík, picking up a rental car from Blue Car Rental is easy.

From compact cars ideal for city driving, to large 4x4s for rugged ‘F’ roads, and luxury SUVs for stylish cruising, Blue Car Rental carries a wide variety of models where the 8th day is always free.
