CAR & MOTORCYCLE
A car is unnecessary in Reykjavík as it's so easy to explore on foot and by bus. Car and
camper hire for the countryside are available at both airports, the BSÍ bus terminal, and
some city locations.
Parking
Street parking in the centre is limited and costs Ikr120 per hour (coins and ATM or credit
cards with PIN only); it's free between 6pm and 10am from Monday to Saturday and all
day Sunday. Parking outside the centre is free.
Vitatorg Car Park
PARKING

TAXI
Taxi prices are high. Flagfall starts at around Ikr660. Tipping is not required. From the BSÍ
to the Reykjavík Downtown Hostel costs about Ikr2000.
There are usually taxis outside bus stations, airports, and bars on weekend nights (huge
queues for the latter), plus on Bankastræti near Lækjargata.
