How to Find Our Shuttle Bus from Keflavík Airport

We know you are eager to explore Iceland. Trying to find your way through an airport with your hands full of bags can feel overwhelming. The last thing you want to juggle on top of all of that is a confusing method for locating your rental car. We’re here to help you navigate the journey and make your transition from airport to rental car via shuttle bus quick and smooth.

Read this simple guide to find the Iceland Car Rental office using the shuttle bus at Keflavík Airport.

1. Landing at Keflavík

Once you have landed at Keflavík Airport, collect your luggage and head to the customs area. You will find it in Level 1 of the main building under the Check-in and Arrivals area. From customs, simply head straight to exit the airport, and you will be one step closer to finding our shuttle from Reykjavík Airport.

2. Our Shuttle Bus from Keflavík International Airport 

Once you are outside the airport, keep walking straight to find our shuttle bus. From 5 am to 6 pm daily, we offer a free shuttle bus service from Keflavík Airport. It runs every 15 minutes and will take you to our car rental office at the airport, which is only a short distance away. This map shows you the short route from the shuttle bus to our office. 

If you arrive between 6 pm and 8 pm, our team can collect you from the airport. Call us at 415-2500 upon arrival to arrange your pickup.
