Girl this video is so cute, and so original! I just wanna thank you with a big hug for all these videos, and for your awesome introduction to these kinds of planning ideas for an awesome return trip to Iceland. I can tell you love being there as much as I did -- except you LIVE THERE now!
Yes!, and this was very helpful, as have been your other videos. One question about campsites, do the have open/closed hours? For instance, what if you roll up at midnight and want to park? What do you do?
My husband and I are planning a trip to Iceland and I've found your videos so incredibly helpful- Thank you! Something I would love more information on is the campsites. How much do they cost- which ones to you recommend, do you need to prebook, what they're like, showering and going to the bathroom, refilling the water tank from the camper at the campsites
We have the Happy Camper 3 reserved for a 6 day trip starting May 6th. We had the 4X4 but changed since Highland roads are closed. However, as I am doing my research, there are some gravel roads off ring road down to beaches and other interesting areas and I was wondering if you had any trouble with only a two wheel drive?
thank you. this is a great video. how much $ per day and where do ou make the reservation for the happy van? did you get the van at the airport? thanks again,
Do campsites fill up? Do I have to book a campsite in advance or is it fine to just show up and park? Also, can these campers travel on F roads? I’m traveling mid-end September 2019!
Camping cards are to be used by only one traveling group, not transferred to another group. The cost of camping varies by campsite and time of year. In general, you've got it right... budget for approximately 2000 ISK / ~$15 USD per adult per night.
Hi there. Thanks for all your great videos, my wife and I are thinking of taking autumn trip 7 nights in this happy 3 van, how much did this trip cost you including all? I mean: car, accessories, insurance, diesel, camping card, etc. Thanks again for the many inspiring videos you make. Greetings from Thailand
Considering how the weather is in Iceland - I would not consider renting a car that I couldn’t overnight in - in an emergency. I have zero intention of meeting the SAR team unless it’s around town.
Thank you so much for this video! It is so informative and helpful. I am a bit confused though, as I am looking to book on Happy Campers and I am finding things you said that comes standard with the van is not actually included, and can be purchased for an additional fee, like wifi €40, sleeping bags €25, etc. Am I missing something, and these are additional sleeping bags and things to be purchased?
Hello I’m thinking of hiring a camper van in Iceland for two weeks . Can you tell me how much it would cost for two weeks and can I pick it up at the airport. I’m thinking of going to Iceland around September, October time in 2021 There will be two people going and want to travel as much of the island as possible . Thank you for your help From jason
Sorry, but for sure there must have been some incentive by happy campers for you to speak to positively about them, right?! It's great you liked the van but I feel like this is a bit dishonest. Not a single little detail you disliked. That's just unlikely. I would have enjoyed the video much more if you'd just been honest about what you liked and what you didn't like. I mean you strongly try to "upsell" everything. The extra items like the inverter for charging your phones, the GoPro batteries etc. (my question here: Why not just charge them from all the USB-ports in the car? I'm considering going to an inverter but can't think of any other use than putting some USB charger in there at the end anyways). Another example is the suggestion about going for the "bigger" camper van. First, many other people at least say that there are disadvantages as well (-> wind affects higher cars more; and obviously fuel usage increases a lot). Second, you completely ignore the fact that the big van is about twice as expensive than the small Happy Camper 1. For a whole week, more than 1000€ more. That's huge. I'd just say "oh well. Maybe you just have a lot of money" but at the same time you complain for the Tupperware to be very expensive in Iceland which makes me think that's not the case. I'm even wondering if happy camper upgraded you for free to the bigger van so that you make this video? I could just move on, never having written this comment. But I think this video can be very helpful to others, because it gives a really in-depth detailed overview over everything and has some good advices. And it could have been so much better if it was natural, honest, out of your heart.
This is the best informative video of touring Iceland that I've seen. Thank you!
I lived in Iceland 1973-76! getting ready to return for a 2-week trip. This video is very helpful!! thanks SO much.
That is fantastic!! Thanks so much for watching! And you're welcome! :)

Are you thinking about renting a camper van to travel in Iceland?
Yes!, and this was very helpful, as have been your other videos. One question about campsites, do the have open/closed hours? For instance, what if you roll up at midnight and want to park? What do you do?
Yes! Thank you for this video. After our ceremony in Arnastapi, my fiance and I will be doing the ring road for our honey moon in a camper van!
@@KrauseAnnah That will be amazing! Thanks for watching! :)

Hai can you do a video where to park and toilet facilities around Iceland
What was the inverter you recommended ? I couldn’t make it out in the video. Thanks.
thank you. this is a great video. how much $ per day and where do ou make the reservation for the happy van? did you get the van at the airport? thanks again,
Is it possible to leave batteries charging overnight in the Vans, like Drone batteries, Camera batteries, etc
Jeannie, I tried to use your Happy Camper 10% off code but it didn't seem to work. Any suggestions? Mike
Do campsites fill up?
Do I have to book a campsite in advance or is it fine to just show up and park?
Also, can these campers travel on F roads?
I’m traveling mid-end September 2019!
Is it possible to buy a card partially used, let's say with a week's worth of credits?
Is one night at a campground going to cost 2000ISK per night?
Camping cards are to be used by only one traveling group, not transferred to another group. The cost of camping varies by campsite and time of year. In general, you've got it right... budget for approximately 2000 ISK / ~$15 USD per adult per night.
Any coupon codes. Came out to over 2,000 usd for 9 days and a lot of other companies were half that price
Wszystko fajnie tylko proszę o ofertę i samochód jest ocieplony

Did you have a discount code for booking through Happy Camper??
Coming to Iceland in August!!
Love your videos! Thank you so much!!!
Good morning,
Which month was this trip on? the weather seems quite nice.
Is it a good idea to have a camper round march?
Do you think 2 couples aka 4 adults could fit in one camper? And how expensive are the camp grounds that you stay at? Thank you
What do you think about using camper van during winter months?
Is it tough to sleep in the van if it's pretty windy at night? I'm really looking into getting one of these but worried about the wind hahah
Considering how the weather is in Iceland - I would not consider renting a car that I couldn’t overnight in - in an emergency. I have zero intention of meeting the SAR team unless it’s around town.
How much is it to use the camp sites?
en.camping.info/iceland/campsites If no price you have the site name to google and get price

Cqmper site are expensive . We have to pay for the camper to park it and for every single person about ten euros or more . That not fair . :(
Should be renamed Happy Crappers because these cheapskates shit all over the place.
