Iceland is a popular holiday hotspot thanks to its natural attractions that are dotted throughout the pretty countryside, from hot springs to icy glaciers. Cheap car hire in Iceland is the best way to make your way around the country as there is so much to see and do at your own pace.

The capital of Iceland is Reykjavik, which translates to ‘Smoky Bay'. The interesting old city is full of white-washed wooden houses contrasted by a host of brightly painted concrete houses. There are plenty of bars and restaurants to try out, and Hallgrimskirkja is an unusual church building that resembles a pile of lava.

Take a hire car in Iceland on a leisurely drive to the southern central area that is full of natural wonders. The two-tiered waterfall known as Gullfoss is at its best during the winter and to the west of the waterfall is a region called Geysir, home to a volcano known as the Great Geysir.

In the northeast of Iceland is Myvatn reserve, where tourists can enjoy volcano scenery, high peaks and rugged terrain, and this is a great region for bird spotting. Icelanders boast a rich heritage and culture and local cuisine can be sampled in all major towns and cities throughout the country.

There are many wild animals to spot while driving through Iceland including the Arctic fox, Icelandic sheep and the sturdy breed of Icelandic horse. There are pleasant coastal areas where polar bear have been spotted as well as colourful puffins and kittiwakes. Keflavik International Airport serves as the country's main transport hub and there are plenty of places to pick up a rental car.
