Thanks so much! That will be SO awesome for y'all. Please let us know if have any specific questions as you get closer to the research phase. We have a few more videos in the pipeline about camping and some of our favorite experiences!
So helpful video!👍👍👍 I'm planning to go to Iceland and also rent same vehicle by Lava. 1:05 are those amenities included? And is there extension cord reel for electricity in vehicle?
Thanks so much! We got the ‘Essential Kit’ The kitchen kit with camping stove and water jug (already included) Electric cooler Table and chairs 2 pillows and 2 sleeping bags Built in diesel heater GPS unit We paid for the additional driver and the WiFi hotspot. There was not extension cord and the van was not plugged in. There is a secondary shore battery powering the rear plugs and lights We would love to hear about your journey!! Please tag us on IG or come back around to this video to tell us how the trip goes. Safe travels!
We did not end up using a code for this van, but we used one in a recent rental we can't wait to tell you about. A lot of youtubers, bloggers, and rental companies had 10% or more codes for Iceland. Those vans didn't meet our needs at the time, but perhaps they will meet yours! If a TH-cam channel is offering a code, you'll find it in their description - I recommend watching a few more Campervan videos!
Excellent question! Yes and no. There is space for luggage in the rear while you’re driving, but when you are using that area at all it’s easier if the luggage is moved up front in the seats. The van had a solid partition between front and back. We kept essentials in the back and rotated items out from our luggage. A downside of this compact van was the regular moving of luggage. We did have bulky bags though - I had a wedding dress to lug around along with all of the thick layers we used daily.
We took out the rental company’s recommended policies for wind, gravel, etc. Knowing our luck if we skipped it I’d open the van door and watch it get snapped off into a ravine somewhere! We also had credit card standard rental coverage. But we did not seek out any supplemental third party coverage.
Awesome video and very informative. My wife and I are planning to do just this in a year or two.

Hello! Great video! What cupon did you use to rent the van?

Hi guys. Did you rent the older model or was it a newer one?
That is a very good question. I’d say it was an older model. But it had a Bluetooth input for the stereo, so it was *new enough* 😂
@@AwayWithTheMays 😂 thank you. And did you take out any extra insurance policies?
We took out the rental company’s recommended policies for wind, gravel, etc. Knowing our luck if we skipped it I’d open the van door and watch it get snapped off into a ravine somewhere! We also had credit card standard rental coverage. But we did not seek out any supplemental third party coverage.
@@AwayWithTheMays amazing thank you for the help 😊
Happy to help! If you end up renting a van or taking on the Ring Road, we’d love to hear how it goes! 😁
