Otherwise you're not allowed to drive on them.
So if you want to truly explore, get a 4x4. And then if you are staying maybe a little bit shorter, you want to do some day trips from Reykjavik then a normal rental car to go to the South, to Vík for example. (upbeat electronic music) - Yeah, the roads close by Reykjavik are very good. Everything is paved, it's really nice. It's only up until you get out of the city, out of the main areas that the roads start getting a little rough. There was a few times we had road closures. But for the most part we got lucky also with the weather. The weather can turn like this in Iceland very very quickly. So having that 4x4 gave us a little bit of comfort knowing that we could get through these spots. - And what you can do beforehand is each day you should check, there is a certain website which tells you where road closures, how are the road conditions, there's a very good system here in Iceland. (upbeat electronic music) There are basically two big options you can do depending on the time you bring. You have the Ring Road, this is the one we did. - Yep. - This takes you through all of Iceland, it's basically road number 1. And you start at Reykjavik and end up in Reykjavik. And the same goes for the Golden Circle road. You also start in Reykjavik and end up in Reykjavik but this is a roundtrip, doable in one day which takes you to some waterfalls, to some springs, Blue Lagoon, geysers, and a crater. Golden Circle is obviously very, very popular and it's hard to escape the tourists. (upbeat electronic music) It is always a good time to travel to Iceland. It just depends on what you are searching for. If you want to see the Northern Lights, for example, you need to come more in the darker times because in summer the sun doesn't really set. So summer is also the most popular time. If you want to avoid the tourists, you shouldn't come in summer but of course in summer it's warmer. - Yes. - So which makes up for opportunities to go to the central Highlands and go hiking there, which is not really possible in winter because it's harder to access.
