Excursion with Flosi - Flosi was very detailed with history and site seeing of Iceland. He was very kind with timing and made sure we spent a sufficient amount of time at each location.

Great excursion - Long drive but necessary to do snowmobiling on the glacier! Beautiful scenery on way & informative driver. Snowmobile hut could do with re- organising as everyone in our group was squashed up trying to get to desk to sign papers. Desk could do with moving to the left of the room, not on right, next to the door for the changing room, & papers could be signed straight away instead of the 20 minute wait we had.
Guides on snowmobiles we're informative & helpful. Had a fantastic time on top of the glacier! Came back down & another group was in signing papers & trying to come into changing room to dress for their excursion while some of us were still trying to get our suits off! Maybe needs a bigger changing room or maybe a couple of different rooms for the different activities offered!
Overall, experience was fantastic. No need to take any equipment as all supplied.
Visited 2 waterfalls on way back. Skogafoss & Seljalandsfoss. Both beautiful in their own way. Couldn't go behind Seljalandsfoss as it was too icy. Would be a summer activity if you plan to go behind the falls.

Snowmobiling is a must do!! - This is a really good trip. The coach trip is a couple of hours each way. You can bring own food or buy it a a service station half way there. Make sure you take your camera as the views are stunning even from the coach! The snowmobiling is great fun and they provide you with boot, gloves, balaclava and very warm all in one jump suits! The only downside for me was the fact you rode in single file so you could only go as fast as the person in front of you. So you felt all the bumps etc but please do it . It’s very much worth the money if you have never been on snowmobile and especially on a glacier!
The waterfalls are fantastic! The ice stalactites look fantastic. You will enjoy both stops at the waterfalls.

Once in a lifetime! - Firstly I would like to say our driver was fantastic, he navigated the roads brilliantly and safely in very tough blizzard conditions! We had such a fantastic day snowmobiling thank you also to the snowmobiling team who made it a great experience in very low visibility conditions. Also, after visiting the two waterfalls which were great and the small intimate group made it run very smoothly, highly recommend booking this experience!!!

Unreal day! Hermann great driver and fantastic guy! - Our favourite excursion here in Iceland, views of the waterfalls were amazing, and driving the ATV’s were such good fun. An unforgettable experience and day.
Hermann our coach driver made our trip extra special as he spoke and narrated throughout the journey giving an insight into history and sights to look out for.

Enjoyed - This was a full day tour. We went Jan 2022 during a 106 year "worst" cold snap, but all 4 of us had a fantastic time on this tour.
Bus operator was professional, on point & safe.
Snow mobile was a great experience.

Good Activity - Snowmobiling was fun, journey is a bit long but that’s to be expected. It was nice that they added a few waterfall visits on the way back. Herman was our tour guide and he was such a legend! really funny and made the trip enjoyable
