What’s the difference between a 4x4 and a converted van?

The 4x4 with a rooftop tent gives you access to the trails of the Highlands and brings you closer to nature with an authentic camping experience. The converted van offers more interior space and comfort, with a bed that's easily accessible without having to step outside. Both options are great for exploring Iceland; it just comes down to personal preference! We've also written a complete blog article to help you make your choice.
