Amazing trip! The van made it even more perfect, I would definitely recommend travelling this way in Iceland, and even better if it's with CampEasy! Perfect vehicles, and perfect team!
Iris was very kind to us and helped us with our rental.
Using a campervan to travel in Iceland can lead to more flexible journey planning. If you are a photography enthusiast and have requirements for the shooting time of natural scenery, it is recommended that you must use a campervan to travel in Iceland.

Winter ring road on Campeasy Viking
It's october 2022 when me and the wife decided to go to Iceland on February 2023, after some research we found out that booking a campervan was by far the best way to explore iceland (for us)
and that booking with CAMPEASY was the way to go, they have 5 stars on all platforms and it's deserved.
why book with Campeasy?
The customer support is incredible specially Iris, who picked us up from our arbnb,checked us in, gave us a lot of usefull Tips about iceland, the roads,the weather, etc, showed us the camper,
and 13 days later checked us out and drove us to the airport (almost like a one Woman show :) ) but there are plenty of people working on the back to make your experience unforgetable.
And yes as you might have already guessed this is another 5* review for CAMPEASY and the VIKING.
Now for the juicy part, THE VIKING
Packed full of features, big, robust, armed with 4x4 and big winter tyres (4x4 is for sure a must if you go in february like we did, on several cases it was the difference beetween
getting to a place and seeing the waterfall/canyon etc or have to turn around and miss the whole atraction and hours of travelling to the site).
The Viking will keep you warm trough the subzero nights with it's webasto and whool insulation, it will get you trough rain, wind, snow, mud, gravel, everything iceland trows
at it, we faced some nasty weather conditions and never felt unsafe on the viking.
The auxiliar battery on which the heating system and all the acessories feed from,was capable of enduring the entire night charging our phones, the ambience leds on, the fridge on, the heat on
without help from the campsite eletricity.
It may be a big campervan but it certainly doesnt feel like that when you are on the steering wheel, it handles incredibly easy, light and nimble, the suspension absorbs holes and bumps on
the road as if its nothing, even on bumpy non paved roads its incredible.
A full sized spare tyre, and an awsome roof rack which was the perfect spot to be when the auroras decided to show. The Hook on the back proved to be usefull when we helped unstuck a tourist bus :) yes thats
the power of the viking.
The Tablet they provide is your best friend troughout the trip, and you can use it as net hotspot, don't forget to refresh the "nearby attractions" feature, it will lead you to some hidden gems off the
beaten path.
The fuel discount card is awsome since the viking is indeed a heavy drinker (It´s a Viking thing i guess).
Don't forget to ask for cramp-ons if you go in the winter, they will prove to be very very usefull (thank us later)
All and All if you are going to iceland book with campeasy, and if you can, book a viking, it will make your experience beyond perfect.
