Relaxing family vacation - Our tour guide, Kjartan, was very informative. He described each point of our stop including a brief history lesson. Our driver Eugen was a safe driver and reminded us to buckle up. He got us to each point safely and got us back to the ship on time. Thank you!!

Great Godafoss and Lake tour - Great trip, better guide. Just about the perfect mix of background stories, what we are seeing and humor. His name was Kjartan and the driver was Eugen. Godafoss was nice to see, but I thought the volcanic rocks we walked around later were even better. Chicken salad sandwich (and some vegan ones too) for our snack and it was fresh. Big Mercedes bus, plenty of seating. Good messaging of time at each stop.

Gorgeous! - It was breathtaking. Walking wasn’t hard, mostly flat. Bring a midge net. We went in August - the weather was cool. Layers layers layers.

Great Tour with fantastic hosts. - It was a bit hard to find the bus, better signage would be helpful. Once we were on the tour the driver and guide were very personable and knowledgeable about the area. They were super excited to shate their wonderful country with us. The tour went on schedule with plenty of time for pictures and some exploration.
