I brought both when I went in July, but eventually didn't use the rain pants. First, soft shells were more comfortable to wear than rain pants. Second, the water from the waterfall and light rain were enough to handle with soft shells. When it really rains for a long time, you won't stay in the rain for too long. So it's recommended to bring soft shells with fleece.

Just came back from Iceland. I only wore a pair of jeans, with a sweater and a thin down jacket, or a sweater and a fleece jacket on top. But you should still bring a raincoat, especially if you're going to the west, where the wind is strong.

Hi guys, I'm going to self-drive in Iceland in two days. May I ask how the previous ones solved the problem of eating?

I've been in Iceland for three days. I've used my credit card to pay for groceries at the supermarket, at the hotel, and to buy a local phone card. But no one has asked me to enter a password or sign anything. My credit card is from CMB and the gas station didn't ask me to enter a password because I bought a gas card. I'm not sure why ?
