Great taxi service
Driver was safe and on time and had great communication. Helped with luggage. Clean van and plenty of room for luggage and six people.
Response from the operator: Thank you! On time, safe and a clean van with room for everyone's bags is exactly what we aim for, so this is great to hear. Thanks for riding with us, and safe travels wherever you're headed next. Matt, VAREN Iceland

Next time pack light or book a van transfer
We booked a transfer from the cruise terminal to our hotel in Reykjavik for 3 people. By the end of the cruise, we ended up with a ridiculous amount of luggage - 4 large suitcases, 4 carryons and 3 backpacks. I should have booked a van, but our driver was able to get everything in his Mazda 6. We had to hold some of the luggage in our laps, but he got all of us and our luggage to our hotel. Afterwards he took a picture to prove it can be done. 😆
Response from the operator: This one made us laugh! Four suitcases, four carry-ons and three backpacks in a Mazda 6 is probably a new company record, and yes, the photo made it around the team. Thank you for being such good sports with bags on your laps. Next time we'll send a van and everyone gets their legroom back. Thanks so much for the review!

Confusing and not clear
Confusing, dont walk around - just exit, you're in parking & pick up area for busses, taxi and shuttle.
Response from the operator: Thanks for sharing this. We want future travelers to know: the pickup and parking area is organized by the port/terminal, not by us, so the layout can be confusing on arrival. What we can promise is that once you reach the bus/taxi/shuttle zone — exactly as you described — our driver will be there for you. We're also updating our pre-arrival instructions to guide guests straight to the right spot. Hope to have you with us again!

Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.
How much does Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $109 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer take?
+
Plan for about 0.3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.
Is Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 0.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Reykjavik Hotel to or from Cruise Port: Private Transfer start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?
+
On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Silfra Snorkeling Between Continents Photos Included- Self Drive, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Reykjavik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
