Road Trip of Iceland with Alda Car Rental
Alda Car Rental, a recent entrant into Iceland’s car hire market, offers budget-friendly vehicle rental options without compromising on quality or reliability. Established as a subsidiary of MyCar, Iceland’s official Toyota dealer and one of the largest Toyota rental providers in the country, Alda Car Rental benefits from the robust infrastructure and industry expertise of its parent company.
Alda Car Rental specializes in providing slightly older vehicle models, typically from 2021 to 2023, or those with higher mileage exceeding 60,000 kilometers. This approach allows the company to offer more affordable rental rates while ensuring that all vehicles remain in excellent condition. The fleet includes a diverse range of vehicles to cater to various traveler needs, such as the Toyota Land Cruiser 150 Mountain, Toyota Hilux, and Toyota Proace. I recently did a road trip with one of their Toyota Aygo and was very satisfied with the car.
Understanding the importance of customer support, Alda Car Rental provides 24/7 roadside assistance through MyCar Rental. Travelers can reach assistance by calling +354 855-1717 or +354 552-1700, ensuring help is readily available in case of breakdowns, accidents, or other incidents. The company has service partners across Iceland to facilitate prompt support and, if necessary, will provide replacement vehicles as quickly as possible.
To enhance customer confidence, Alda Car Rental includes several insurance options with every rental. These comprise Collision Damage Waiver (with a liability), Theft Protection, and Third Party Liability insurance. Additional coverage options are also available, such as Gravel Protection, F-road protection, Sand and Ash Protection, and Tire Insurance, allowing renters to tailor their insurance packages to their specific needs.
As a newly established brand, Alda Car Rental has limited customer reviews. However, its parent company, MyCar, has garnered positive feedback, boasting a 4.8 out of 5 rating on Google and a 9.42 out of 10 on Northbound, based on over 2,000 reviews. This strong reputation suggests that Alda Car Rental is poised to offer similarly high-quality service to its customers. I was definitely satisfied with the customer service support and the car.
In summary, Alda Car Rental presents a cost-effective and dependable option for vehicle hire in Iceland. By leveraging the experience and infrastructure of MyCar, offering a diverse fleet, comprehensive insurance options, and round-the-clock roadside assistance, Alda Car Rental is well-equipped to meet the needs of travellers looking to explore Iceland’s landscapes.
