One of a kind!! - One of a kind experience! Greg and Reda were the absolute most charming and professional guides! They read the room and tailored our experience to the group of 8 people (3 separate groups). They were patient, funny and kind and shared their knowledge of the area and Iceland in general. Do not miss this amazing experience.

We had an absolutely... - We had an absolutely amazing time on this kayaking tour! Our guide was fantastic — knowledgeable, engaging, and full of fascinating information about the area and Iceland in general! Even with the rainy, cool, and windy weather, it was unforgettable and so much fun. The scenery was breathtaking and the pace was perfect. Finishing off with hot chocolate and cookies was the perfect touch to warm us up and end the day on a high note. Highly recommend this experience!

Well worth it. - The company thought of everything; well organized. The pace was slow, so beginners could easily learn the ropes. Great experience.

Once in a lifetime... - Once in a lifetime experience! To float in the ocean, at the foot of an iconic mountain, as the sun sets at 10pm is almost indescribable. Reda is an outstanding guide — knowledgeable, funny, hospitable and engaging. He made an outstanding activity even better!!! Cannot recommend this more highly.

Cancelled due to bad weather - Unfortunately I was unlucky that my tour was cancelled due to bad weather. I'm supposed to get the money back. But so far, I'm still waiting for the refund. But I'm sure the tour would have been great.
