The 9-seater 4×4 Volkswagen Caravelle van is a perfect passenger van for larger groups and families travelling together. Unlike the other vans, this automatic Volkswagen Caravelle is surprisingly manageable to control and drive. You can effortlessly drive this passenger van and visit Iceland’s famous attractions along the paved ring road (some might call it Iceland’s circle road). You can also see the hidden gems accessible only with gravel roads or even with F-roads (mountain roads) in summer. The 4×4 capability makes the VW Caravelle one of the best vans in Iceland for self-driving in a more extensive group (1 driver + 8 passengers).
Heads-up: Reservations are made by car category. Specific models are not guaranteed.
Where can you drive with the 9-Seater VW Caravelle in Iceland?
The 4×4 VW Caravelle is a top choice for larger groups who want the freedom to explore all corners of Iceland together. With seating for nine and strong off-road capability, it’s perfect for driving the Ring Road, exploring the Golden Circle, and venturing along the South Coast to see waterfalls, glaciers, and black sand beaches. Unlike standard vans, the Caravelle’s 4×4 system also makes it suitable for F-roads in the highlands during summer, giving you access to remote destinations such as Landmannalaugar and Þórsmörk. Spacious, powerful, and versatile, it ensures that your group can experience Iceland’s most iconic and off-the-beaten-path locations in comfort and safety.
Important Reminder: Off-road driving is illegal in Iceland. Driving off-road on lava fields, moss, beaches, or unmarked land will result in heavy fines.
