So many fish! - My husband and I went and together caught 4 large cod. It was fantastic being able to catch and then eat them on the boat.

Amazing sea angling day! - We had an amazing sea angling tour with the Special Tours team!
The staff was very welcoming and they did their best to keep us informed, entertained, and helped us once we fished.
They took us to the area in Hvalfjörður, and we fished a lot. On the way back to Reykjavik, the team cooked the cod and served to us along with potatoes.
We also had the chance to get some cod so we could cook it at home.
Special thanks to the team who accompanied us on board, Stefan, Ásgeir and Oddgir.

Great first fishing experience in Iceland - Awesome first fishing experience in Iceland. Both my wife and I caught a lot of nice cod and thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The mates, Otsgir (may have misspelled his name) and Samuel were both great and super friendly and helpful. They worked hard to make sure everyone caught fish, especially the kids, and filleted and cooked up the fish and some potatoes for everyone to eat on the trip back in. If I go back to Iceland, I will definitely fish with them again!

We caught so many fish!... - We caught so many fish! The captain and crew were helpful and friendly, and prepared and cooked the fish we caught, which was delicious. We were able to see whales swimming right next to the boat on the way home. One of the best fishing experiences our family has ever had! (Kids aged 10 and 13)

Guaranteed fun for young and elder fishers! - We caught many fishes and ate well, the guide and pilots where perfect company, my 12-year-old son was enthusiastic!
We were lucky to find a short-term booking by Special Tours, as a similar tour by another organising company was cancelled two hours before the tour!

Great fishing trip - Fishing was great! My son (16) caught about 7 fish. They cooked everything on the boat and it was delicious. Unfortunately there wasn’t any left to take home.

Great Trip - Great fishing trips, with a very friendly crew.
13 guests and 3 crew on board.
30-40 mins cruise out to open water. Caught lots of Pollock, which was all thrown back, moved location and then hit the Cod. Good sized fish, with all fishers catching at least one.
Had 3 location moves, to get the best fishing.
One of the crew filleted and Barbequed the fish. Potatoes in the oven, which gave us a very tasty dinner on the cruise back to Harbour.
Would definitely do it again, and highly recommend to others.

Must do - Fishing has it's ups and downs, let's just say it was 100% up today. My family and I caught over 70 cod within 2 hours, which they oooked afew on the boat. Just overall great time with a great team.

Fun Fishing - The staff was very friendly and we caught lots of fish. My only complaint would be that it was shoulder to shoulder fishing. That said, it still was a fun experience.
