Question 5

What’s the cheapest month to visit Iceland?

Accepted Answer

October, November and January are the cheapest, with Reykjavik mid-range rates dropping to around 18,000-25,000 ISK compared to 35,000+ in July. You get northern lights and often ice cave access from November onwards, but shorter days: 4-5 hours of daylight in December around Reykjavik. Avoid the New Year window from 27 December to 3 January, when prices jump back to summer levels. February is nearly as cheap and has more daylight than December.

Question 6

How many nights do I need in Iceland?

Accepted Answer

Five nights is the realistic minimum to see Reykjavik, the Golden Circle and the south coast as far as Jokulsarlon. Seven nights lets you add Snaefellsnes from Stykkisholmur or reach Hofn comfortably. Ten to twelve nights covers the full 1,332 km Ring Road with stops in Vik, Hofn, Myvatn and Akureyri. Add three more nights if you want the Westfjords and Isafjordur, which is a 455 km detour from Reykjavik.

Question 7

How do I get from Keflavik airport to Reykjavik?

Accepted Answer

The Flybus and Airport Direct coaches run to BSI terminal in Reykjavik in about 50 minutes and cost 3,999-4,499 ISK one way, timed to every arriving flight. A taxi is 20,000-25,000 ISK for the 47 km, and hire cars are picked up from lots a short shuttle from the terminal. There is no train. If your flight lands after midnight, the Flybus still runs; it’s the most reliable option in winter weather.

Question 8

Do I need to hire a car in Iceland?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for anything beyond Reykjavik, the Golden Circle and the Blue Lagoon in Grindavik. There is no passenger rail, and Straeto buses to Vik, Hofn or Akureyri run once a day at most and stop in winter. A 2WD works June to September on Route 1; from October to May you want a 4x4, especially for the north and east. Budget 8,000-15,000 ISK a day for a small car in summer, plus roughly 320 ISK per litre for petrol.

Question 9

Is Iceland good for families or better for couples?

Accepted Answer

Both, but the shape of the trip differs. Families do well basing in Reykjavik or Akureyri with day trips, using geothermal pools like Laugardalslaug and Myvatn Nature Baths where children under 16 are usually free. Couples tend to move more, doing the Ring Road or splurging on Ion Adventure near Thingvellir or the Retreat at Blue Lagoon. Long driving days between Hofn and Egilsstadir (265 km, minimal stops) are hard with small children.
