CampEasy vs KuKu Campers

CampEasy positions itself as a premium operator with a streamlined fleet organized into three tiers: Easy Small for budget-conscious travelers, Easy Auto for added comfort, and the Tesla Camper Y 4x4 for those seeking an electric off-road option. Every vehicle in the CampEasy fleet is marketed as no more than three years old, which means travelers can expect newer interiors and more recent mechanical components. KuKu Campers, operating since 2012, takes a broader approach with fleet categories spanning A through I plus dedicated 4x4 models. This wider range gives KuKu one of the more granular vehicle selections among Icelandic rental companies, covering everything from compact economy vans to larger premium and highland-capable options.

The two vendors differ notably in what comes included with the rental. CampEasy vehicles arrive with sleeping gear, a cooler, heating, power access, and water facilities ready to use out of the box, though cooking equipment carries some caveats and furniture items like tables and chairs are available as add-ons. KuKu Campers includes furniture and heating as standard but treats sleeping gear as an add-on, with cooking, cooling, power, and water setups carrying caveats or requiring extra equipment. Travelers who prefer a turnkey setup with fewer decisions at checkout will notice this difference.

On the insurance front, CampEasy offers a Zero Risk policy with a 0 ISK deductible and provides free cancellation with 24 hours notice. KuKu Campers stands out for its unusually detailed a la carte insurance menu, letting renters select specific coverage types independently rather than choosing from bundled tiers. KuKu charges a flat EUR 100 fee for cancellations. Both vendors include CDW and unlimited mileage as standard. For highland and F-road travel, KuKu Campers provides particularly detailed per-vehicle permissions and specifications, which can be valuable for travelers planning interior routes.
