Reykjavik questions
Is six days enough for Reykjavik and the Ring Road?
Six days covers the main sites if you rent a car and drive each day. Add buffer time for weather on the south coast route.
Do I need to book the Blue Lagoon ahead?
Reserve Blue Lagoon tickets online at least two weeks in advance. Same-day slots are limited and often unavailable.
How much does it cost to rent a car in Iceland?
A weekly rental for a compact car runs 80000 to 120000 ISK including basic insurance. Add 20000 ISK per day for fuel on the south coast loop.
Do I need a 4x4 for the south coast and Golden Circle?
A regular car handles all paved roads on this route. Skip the 4x4 upgrade unless you plan side trips on gravel.
