Fantastic tour and very knowledgeable guide. - Had a fantastic tour with our guide Arman. We were made to feel safe and comfortable thoughout the trip. Arman was extremely knowledgeable and personable. He brought the whole trip to life. The itinerary was perfectly paced and we left knowing so much more at the end of the tour than we knew at the start. We would highly recommend the tour to ensure that you get the best of the area.

Great Service - Well, our tour was cancelled due to not enough people signing up. I think it was that way for most tour companies that day. But our guide tried as hard as he could to book us on another company's tour, which I thought was going above and beyond. We did business with these people two other times and would highly recommend them to anyone who asks.

Great trip. Amazing locations. - First of all Norbert was a great guide, provided us with microspikes so we could walk on icy patches and in general was very knowledgeable and funny. The trip was totally worth it as we visited amazing locations in complete safety.

A Wonderful Tour To Remember - An excellent tour, very interesting and lots of highlights including the mud pools, steam vents and seeing the Godafoss waterfall at dusk with very few people around. The Myvatn natural pool experience rounded off a great day. Norbert and Armann were super hosts and know Northern Iceland inside out, so their tours are highly recommended.

Book this tour! - Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Akureyri. Tour guide was brilliant - his knowledge and sense of humour really made the trip. Stunning places on the tour from Godafoss waterfall to all the volcanic stops - lava tubes, tectonic plates, etc. Iceland is a really beautiful country and you get to see so much of this on the tour.

Fabulous tour with the best guide - We had such a fabulous day tour with Daniel, he was so knowledgeable, funny and full of great facts not only about the sights on our tour but about Icelandic life. I couldn’t recommend this tour enough. We had such an enjoyable day in a group of 12 lovely people. Daniel was such a great host and made sure we were all safe and looked after us so well in very snowy conditions

HigHighlight of Our Iceland Trip – Friendly, Knowledgeable Guide and Incredible Destinations! - My girlfriend and I had the most incredible experience on this tour – it truly exceeded all expectations. Despite it being just the two of us, the tour went ahead without hesitation, something many other companies wouldn’t do. Our guide, Arman (apologies if I’ve misspelled the name), was phenomenal. He was not only extremely friendly and accommodating but also genuinely passionate about ensuring we had the best time possible. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and attention to detail were unmatched. He went out of his way to take us to multiple stunning spots, many of which felt like hidden gems. It was clear he genuinely cared about making the experience unforgettable for us. Having travelled to over 50 countries and taken countless tours, I can confidently say this was the absolute best I’ve ever experienced. It wasn’t just a tour – it was a personalised adventure that became the highlight of our entire trip. If you’re in Akureyri, don’t even think twice – book this tour! You’ll be treated to world-class service, breathtaking locations, and memories that will last a lifetime. An unforgettable experience!
