Great tour - Great tour! Needed another 45 min at Godafoss Waterfall but plenty of time at the Myvatn Baths. Niko was excellent and the chicken sandwich was delicious. Fun day.

Great guide. - Nicole was a great guide, very knowledgeable and fun. Loved the Godafoss Waterfall. Myvatn Nature Baths were interesting and the only reason I gave 4 stars was because they were a little disappointing. Lots of construction around the pool so you didn’t get the feeling I expected.

Uncomfortable - The Nature Bath was beautiful but the place where you change well I am not one to take my clothes off in front of alot of people and walk around naked but there are no stalls to change so if your not comfortable with this do not take this tour

What would be a good excursion was marred by our tour guide. - I was not very impressed with this tour. The baths are nice and you get the blue water (but not mud facials like blue lagoon), but i felt like our guide didn't take into account our needs. Like, we were told to arrive at a certain time. We waited for other people then left late because we had to accommodate people from a different tour and arrived at our next destination almost 1.5 hrs later. He was surprised why so many of us needed a bathroom break as we only drove maybe 20 min - but we waited over an hour before leaving. Our stop at the Godafoss falls was far away from the restroom so essentially there wasn't enough time to get to it and visit the falls. So with a bus full of people, many waiting for the bathroom on the bus, it was pretty uncomfortable. Our guide was joking the entire time. He called the baths basically a nuclear waste bath and honestly couldn't tell if he was telling the truth with most of the info he provided as his voice was fairly monotone. As other comments said, Myvatn lake has tons of annoying flies. Definitely bring a hat with a net. I forgot so we didn't stay too long before heading back to the bus. I was unfortunately unable to go into the baths, but my family did enjoy it. I think this could be a good excursion with a few changes.
