Hiring a car at Keflavík International Airport (KEF)

Enterprise Rent-A-Car has an airport branch at Keflavik, so you can touch down and go without the need for taxis or public transport. The Enterprise branch is only 30 miles west of Reykjavik, the island’s capital city, which is a great starting point for any trip to Iceland. The Enterprise branch is conveniently located by the airport’s petrol station, just across the arrivals hall and near the airport bus pick up bays. Another perk of the branch location is the fact that it's only a minute away from Route 41, a motorway that goes from the airport right into Reykjavik. Route 41 is also connected to Route 42, a great scenic road that will take you to the famous hot mud springs and lava fields of Reykjanes Natural Preserve.

If you're keen to start your journey as soon as you land, there are several tourist landmarks within a short drive. For example, the Natural History Museum and Nature Centre is only 5 miles away, and a bit further north, you'll also find Gardur beach and the Garoskagi Lighthouse. If you head south from the airport, a 20-minute drive will take you to Midline, a bridge that connects the American and European tectonic plates. No matter what your travel itinerary includes, you can be sure that by arranging a car hire at Keflavik airport, your journey will be more pleasant and hassle-free, which will allow you to see much more during your stay in magical Iceland.

To rent a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car in the United States and Canada, you will need the following:

  • To be 25 years old 
  • A valid driving licence with a photo
  • A photo ID (for example: a driving licence or passport)
  • Credit or debit card (check the acceptable forms of payment at the location you're renting from)

Some locations may require additional information, including but not limited to: 

  • An International Driving Permit (IDP): If the licence is written in a language or characters different from those of the country of rental, an IDP is also required. Renters are advised to check whether local authorities require foreign drivers to present an International Driving Permit to avoid the risk of potential fines. Renters with licences from countries that are not part of the International Driving Permit Agreement should carry a certified translation.
  • Return travel and accommodation information: Visitors to the UK must also provide proof of return travel and accommodation information while in the UK. 

As a customer, you have a choice as to how you would like to pay for fuel.

Fuel policy at non-airport locations:

  • You may refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level you received when you picked up the vehicle, or if you choose not to refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level, you will be charged the local Enterprise rate which is typically above the local pump price. An additional refuelling charge may apply at some locations.
  • A full tank of fuel is not guaranteed.

Note: Pre-paid fuel is only sold in full tanks at the discounted price per gallon and is not refundable. Local fuel rates will vary by the area you are renting a vehicle.
