    Finding the right car rental at KEF Airport has never been easier, thanks to Cars Iceland! Established in 2013, we've been serving happy customers for over a decade, showing that we're a name you can trust when it comes to renting a car.
    Imagine stepping off your plane, breezing through customs, and finding your rental car awaiting you. Depending on the vehicle you booked, you’ll either head to our Blikavöllur 3 depot, just an easy 8-minute walk away, or meet our representative who will shuttle you to our larger Keilisbraut 771 depot. Pretty convenient, right?
    But here's a friendly tip: make sure you're booking your rental vehicle for Keflavik International Airport (KEF), not Reykjavik Domestic Airport (RKV). Despite some flight information and booking sites mixing up the names, KEF is your gateway to Iceland. With this in mind, you're set for a smooth start to your Icelandic adventure courtesy of Cars Iceland!
    A scenic Icelandic home by the water with snowcapped mountains, perfect for an Iceland road trip, where you can pick up a rental car from Keflavik International Airport for your journey, offering passenger cars, electric vehicles, and luxury models for a memorable adventure.
