Overcame My Fear and Loved Silfra - Ask for Wilmar! - Snorkeling in Silfra was an absolutely incredible experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Wilmar! He was so knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and really took great care of everyone in our group. I was particularly nervous about the deep water, but Wilmar was incredibly patient and supportive, helping me overcome my fear and truly enjoy the experience. From the initial briefing to helping us get geared up and even capturing some awesome underwater photos, Wilmar made the whole experience unforgettable. Highly recommend this tour, and if you're lucky enough to have Wilmar as your guide, you're in for a treat!

Unforgettable Silfra Experience with an Outstanding Guide - There are no words to truly capture the experience of snorkeling in Silfra. The water is cold, but the suits make it comfortable, allowing you to fully enjoy the breathtaking underwater sights. We had an incredible time with the Adventure Vikings team, especially our guide, Wilmar. A special thanks to Wilmar for not only sharing his deep knowledge of the fissure, snorkeling, driving, and the park but also for making it engaging and relatable. His ability to handle the emotions and challenges of the experience was truly commendable. My spouse grew increasingly anxious as we approached the water, but Wilmar’s care and reassurance helped him feel at ease, turning what could have been a stressful situation into an enjoyable and fulfilling adventure. It was clear he was a true professional, and we felt completely safe in his hands. If you’re planning this experience, I highly recommend adding the Sky Lagoon package—it’s an unbeatable value and an absolutely AMAZING way to warm up and unwind after Silfra and a day of sightseeing.

Edgar is a superstar! - We arrived at 9:15, parked up and walked over. We met Edgar, who was really lovely and welcoming. We had a short wait (about 30 minutes) but we were getting suited up and having a chat with Edgar who also let us get plenty of photo opportunities. The entire trip we felt, looked after and safe, while having a laugh and joke with Edgar. Really recommend and the highlight was being able to have underwater pictures! Definitely would suggest the morning slot as it seemed to get busier as we left :)

Give Dory a Beer - Dory was amazing. Great instructor, funny, friendly. It was a small group of 6 and she made sure we were safe and as sealed in our suits as possible. Reward her with a beer!

Amazing swim - Klaudyna took us on a marvelous swim through Silfra. She made sure our nerves were at ease for the cold water. In the provided dry suit and underlayer it was more comfortable. Klaudyna's instructions was very clear and the swim was amazing. In the evening we did the Sky Lagoon part which was also an amazing experience. A beautiful place to see the sunset

Great snorkel trip, sky lagoon topper - Great snorkeling trip! The water was gorgeous and clear! Has been a bucket list item for me to snorkel Silfra “between” the two tetonic plates. Adventures Vikings helped me checked off my bucket list item. Our group was the last one of the day and it was a small group, which made it felt very personable. Our guide Dory was very attentive and helpful which added even more to the experience and making it even more pleasant. Went as a solo traveler which can be hard doing large group activities but did not feel left out at all! Also Sky lagoon was fantastic highly recommend over blue lagoon went to both and loved the experience and views at sky lagoon
