Going to Iceland for 10 days in the summer. Anyone had a great experience with a campervan or are hotels along the way a better approach?

I did campervan with wife and 4 year old - highly recommend

like

We didn’t campervan but rented a car and drove the southern border. 10000% recommend this, it was wild to drive through and see the ever changing scenery.

We went all the way to Hofn, then drove back over the next few days. We did Jokulsarlon boat tour, Diamond Beach, Vik (black sand beaches), a glacier hike, Thingvellir National Park, Blue Lagoon, and tons of waterfalls along the way including Seljalandfoss which is right off the road and you can walk behind.


Other things I wish we had done:
Horseback riding
Going into a volcano
More time in Reykjavik (only had one night)
More hiking

Np! It was an insane trip and I want to go back. Enjoy!

I can't speak to campervan but I did Airbnb and hotels - totally a great time! DM me if you need any recommendations
