Why Renting Gear is Smarter Than Buying for Your Iceland Trip

Planning a trip to Iceland? Get ready for jaw-dropping landscapes, unpredictable weather, and once-in-a-lifetime adventures. But before you fill your suitcase with outdoor gear, consider why renting from Tourvo might be the smartest decision you make.

1. Iceland is Unique—And So is the Gear You Need

Iceland isn’t your average travel destination. From sudden snow showers to volcanic hikes, the gear you need here is specialized and often seasonal. Waterproof jackets, snow pants, hiking boots, thermal layers, and gloves—it all adds up quickly. Unless you live in a similar climate, you probably won’t need most of it again.

2. Save Money for the Experiences That Matter

Buying quality outdoor gear is expensive. Renting from Tourvo gives you access to top-quality, adventure-tested clothing and equipment without the big upfront cost. Save your budget for unforgettable experiences—like glacier hikes, lava cave tours, or soaking in remote hot springs.

3. Travel Lighter and Smarter

Heavy winter gear takes up valuable luggage space. With Tourvo, you can pick up your gear in Iceland or have it delivered to your accommodation. No need to overpack or pay extra airline baggage fees.

4. Ideal for Families and Groups

Traveling with kids or in a group? Renting is a game-changer. Tourvo offers full family packages and gear in all sizes—including hats, gloves, waterproof layers, and more. Get exactly what you need without buying gear that kids will outgrow by next winter.

5. A More Sustainable Travel Choice

Renting reduces waste. Rather than purchasing items that will sit unused or be discarded, renting lets you use high-quality gear in a more sustainable way. At Tourvo, we maintain and clean all equipment carefully, so you get like-new gear without the environmental impact.

6. Tested by Locals, Trusted by Travelers

All of Tourvo’s rental gear is handpicked by locals who understand Iceland’s unpredictable weather. Whether you're braving the wind on a glacier or walking in light summer rain, our gear has been tested where it matters most.

7. Flexibility for Every Kind of Trip

Short stopover? Long road trip? Summer or winter travel? We offer customizable rental packages to match your itinerary and the season. No need to guess what to pack—we’ve got you covered.
