Self Drive Packages & Planning for Your Iceland Vacation

HotSpringPath174At Nature Explorer we specialize in custom-made self drive itineraries to suit each client's needs and wishes for their holiday in Iceland.  You benefit from our local knowledge and expertise for a better vacation as we have a passion for nature and traveling around Iceland.  We design the itinerary sensibly to best fit the places of interest with your time frame, include a few tips of our own and give you detailed driving directions.

We book a rental car for you, activities on the way (such as snowmobiling, whale watching, horseback riding etc.), as well as accommodation, both in Reykjavík and in the countryside.  The accommodation can be anything from a cozy guesthouse or farm to a luxurious 4* hotel, although please note that in some areas there are only 3* country hotels. 

Upon your arrival at your hotel you'll receive a self drive package that includes:

  • A map with your route marked and highlighted
  • An Icelandic cell phone with all the necessary numbers, including our number which you can call 24/7. 
  • A good, detailed Road Atlas of Iceland
  • An information manual on Iceland that includes
    - Information on places of interest on your route
    - Meaning of nature names so you can better understand Icelandic road signs 

A custom itinerary is ISK 6.500 per day planned, paid in advance.  Of that fee ISK 2.500 is a deposit when booking the rental car and accommodation.  No planning fee is charged for days spent in Reykjavík before or after the tour, but we'd be happy to suggest some activities in Iceland's capital.
