Thanks for the advice. We will try and stay away from the tourists. Sadly April is my only choice for travel, luckily we are in a decent car and very experienced in horrible weather conditions.
Is there any spot anyone can recommend renting mountain bikes? Like a half day fatbiking around a volcano kind of thing...does it exist? thx

I recommend staying off Route 1 in the vicinity of Reykjavik especially on the southern coast where most of the tourist are. The highlands can simply be dangerous (as described here above) and always take a good look at the weather forecast. Best months to travel are probably May to August, outside that period it is almost guaranteed you will hit shitty weather.
