- Hello, guys! Our road trip in Iceland just ended and we thought we'd make a little video to tell you more about how to travel Iceland with the most common questions which come up when you prepare for a trip which we also had before we were prepared for our trip. (upbeat music) (relaxing electronic music) - [Gareth] We just spent the last two weeks traveling around Iceland.
We started here in Reykjavik, we went up the what is it, the West coast, through the North, down the East coast, and then back to Reykjavik. That took us how many days https://casinoslots.sg/welcome-bonus? - I'd say we did it in 10 days with a little bit more, we factored a little bit more time in because we also do photography and video as you've seen in the series. So let's start from the beginning. - Yes. - Getting in. Getting Around. (upbeat electronic music) In terms of visa situation, it's pretty fast forward for basically for us two, like for North America. - Yeah, you have 30 days on just your regular passport, valid passport, all that kind of stuff. That has to be applied, but yeah 30 days with a valid U.S. passport. I believe Europe is the same. - Yeah, it's the same. Iceland is basically part of Europe so not a big problem. Yeah, just buy a ticket, come when you're from this area. It's a little bit different for other countries so I recommend making sure with your country checking out the visa requirements before you go, but in general it's the same as in other countries in Europe. (upbeat electronic music) And when you're in, how do you get around from the airport to get into the city center of Reykjavik 'cause it will probably be your first stop. There are two major companies, two bus companies, Flybus and Gray Line and you can book online transfer ticket which takes you actually either to the bus terminal or if you pay a little bit more, also to the hostel or hotel you're staying at. And the same goes for the way back. So you can buy a return ticket which is cheaper than buying two one way tickets. So you could think about doing that beforehand and save some money on that. (upbeat electronic music) - I think the best thing for us and what we talk about a lot is we made a really good decision in renting a car. For us especially, for videography and photography we were on our own schedule all the time. We could go off the beaten path whenever we needed to. (upbeat electronic music) - So in general, you have three options. You have a normal rental car, you have a 4x4, and you have a camper van. Camper van is cool because you can sleep in a camper van, you can cook. Yeah, and you basically have everything in one place. - It's definitely the most economic choice as far as your accommodations are built in that you can stay. There's a lot of campsites around the country that you can find beforehand, and stay in those. And there's some nice setups, we even passed one that had a large dining area and kitchen setup and public bathrooms and things like that. So again, if you're on a very tight budget but you do have time, I would highly recommend, you know, the camper van option is a really good option. - Exactly. We went with the 4x4 because we went a little bit off the beaten path. We went on the gravel roads which you can mostly find in the Highlands but also in the East and in the North. If you want to go certain waterfalls, they are so called "F-roads" which you can only drive on if you have a 4x4.
