Wheelchair Accessible Tour with a Fantastic Guide - We had a great guide and an excellent trip to the falls. Our guide took care of me and my powered wheelchair very quickly and safely. He was knowledgeable of the area and told us lots of great stories and facts about the area. The falls themselves were magnificent and quite accessible.

Great views, nice driver, personal expirience. - Fantastic trip. Helga picked us up from the ship in a minivan. There were only the three of us so we left right away, even though we were a bit early. Helga was so knowlegable about the area, stopped where the big busses don't and anywhere we wanted to look. The falls are absolutely beautiful. The view of the ship from across the bay was nice. Thanks for a great morning.

A great time on the Goðafoss- Waterfall of the Gods Tour! - We had a nice experience with the Goðafoss- Waterfall of the Gods Tour. It was a small group so we had lots of opportunity to ask questions. Our guide was very pleasant and helpful. As a native of the area, he had a lot of good information to give us.

Beautiful waterfalls with an uncomfortable van ride - The waterfall was beautiful but the van ride was cramped, too many people for too small of a van, the tour would have been much better if the 30 minute each way trip was more comfortable

Small van tour - Helga was our guide on this van tour. She gave us an average amount of information about Akureyki and a bit about the waterfall. However she constantly complained about tourists to Iceland. Her business and income are from taking tourists around. Seems strange to criticize those who provide your living. Told to meet at 1:45, she did not arrive until 2pm. It didn't really delay our trip. Waterfall is amazing.

Most Expensive Shuttle Bus - The $90/pp was strictly for 30-minute shuttle ride to and from the waterfall. I knew Iceland was expensive but this takes a cake!!!
