Ferry cost £556.00 return for tall Disco and 2 adults.  I drove up from South Devon which took 13 hours to get to Scrabster (ferry port).  Ferry crossing takes 31 hours outbound with a brief stop at the Faroe Islands.  The return crossing takes 19 hours to the Faroes where you get off and camp for 3 days until the ferry returns and the remaining crossing takes another 12 hours to Scrabster.

We bought all our supplies before we went to cut down on costs but be aware that you are only allowed to import 3Kgs of food per person into Iceland.  Even after months of research I had forgotten this and as we happily slipped down the green channel at Icelandic customs, we were pulled over, searched and fined for the extra food we were "smuggling" in!

Camp sites cost about 700-800Kr pp per night (£7-£8 roughly).

Diesel cost just over a pound a litre so not wildly different to here.  Only costs about 60p/litre in the Faroes though!

Will post some pics soon... honest!

Disco is now for sale if anyone is interested...
