• BE A GOOD TOURIST
  Keep Iceland beautiful by leaving no trace! Dispose of your trash and use proper toilets, don´t enter roped off areas, park only in designated parking places, don´t go off road, avoid standing in the middle of the road to take selfes but most importantly stay clear of elves and trolls

• SAFETY
  We recommend you check the weather forecast and road conditions regularly as the weather in Iceland can change so quickly and it is very common to experience all 4 seasons in just a day, so… be ready, avoid the storms and drive carefully! We’d like to remind you that driving when wind speed reaches 20m/s is not recommended at all. It is advised that you’d reconsider your plans and change your route.

Roundabouts in Iceland

... a headache to visitors

Before you hit the road and start driving your KÚKÚ mobile, you might be interested in finding out more about the Icelandic rules on the road.

While you might be focused on things like how traffic lights work here or what actual side of the road Icelanders drive on – the right, in case you didn’t know – you will be surprised to learn that the difficulty comes from somewhere completely different. In fact, it’s the country’s roundabouts that will possibly cause you some small trouble. Here’s why.

RIGHT OF WAY IN ICELAND

What keeps the traffic mainly fluid in Iceland is that drivers all understand who has the right of way in roundabouts.

On a two-lane roundabout in Iceland, the vehicle in the inner lane has the right of way. The vehicle in the outer lane must yield. As simple as that!

You probably stopped for a second and are now wondering how it is then, back home. Be sure that the opposite is true, but don’t even bother checking a copy of the Icelandic highway code, there’s nothing about roundabouts’ rules except that it’s forbidden to park on one. The right of way thing is not really a law but an accepted convention which is working well so far as everyone is aware about it and respect it.

In Iceland, it is required by law to have the headlights of any vehicle in motion switched on, any time of the day, all year round. Whether it is daytime or night-time, a bright summer day or a dark winter night, the headlights of your KÚKÚ car must be always on! Keep that in mind or you could risk getting fined by the police if they stop you with your headlights switched off while driving.

!!! BATTERY !!!

Remember to ALWAYS turn lights off when the car is off – unplug chargers from cigarette lighters and go easy on radio use when the engine is not running. Flat batteries happen faster than we think, and roadside assistance in that case is at the lessee’s cost.

• Car drop off at the airport after hours only (from 7pm to 7am) for a price of 55€.

• You can’t return the camper at the airport during different hours.

• If you would like that option, please contact us before dropping off as last-minute changes might not always be available. If you got that option confirmed by our staff, you will then need to leave the car at the airport in the long term P3 parking lot – section K, as KÚKÚ of course.

• From that point you will leave the parking ticket and the car keys in the glovebox of the car and you will leave the vehicle unlocked. Take pictures of the whole car and send them to us at returns@kukucampers.is.
