Tours and Trip Packages to Iceland in Spring 2020/2021

“In March 2019 we did this marvelous trip. For early spring the weather was nice and the landscape beautiful: surrealistic geothermal pools on Reykjanes and snowcapped mountains above the glaciers. Right in time the driver picked us (family of 2 parents and 3 young-adults from the Netherlands) up at the airport. On the way to Hvolsvóllur we visited the geothermal pools of Krýsuvik. A warm welcome at Base Camp Midgard. We absolutely prefer a small family-owned and local-based company instead of a big travel agency/company. Another advantage is the location: much closer to the highlights in the south than a hotel in Reykjavik. Breakfast and dinner (and the drinks at the bar) were fine. A cozy atmosphere with a lot of adventurous people (young or somewhat older).The trip to Pórsmörk with the Ford SuperJeep was great. Due to the driving skills of Christian we crossed various rivers to get as far as possible into the Valley of the Thunder God Thor. We explored by foot the surroundings of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano. On the way back to Midgard BaseCamp we visited the Seljálans Falls. The third day we headed to the Sólheimajökull Glacier. A long time ago I climbed various mountains in the Alps, the Andes and the Himalaya but walking on crampons on the glacier and -safely- descending in a crevasse is impressive too. Really worrying is the decline of the glacier in the last decades. A dramatic effect of the global warning. Please show the picture of the sign to D. Trump.The last day –on our way to Reykjavik- we visited the impressive Gullfoss waterfall (thanks to Sigridur Tómasdóttir who ‘saved’ the area), Geysir and the Öxaráfoss waterfall.Summarizing a great trip in just 4 days.”

“Awesome experience, I feel we could have hiked a little higher, but nonetheless it was beautiful”

“My guide was Karen. She was oh so nice and very knowledgeable! She educated the group on the food and country, while fielding all of the groups’ questions. The restaurants we visited were charming. It was great for me, wanting to sample the iconic Icelandic food yet not liking seafood, I was able to taste (and enjoy) what I not would have ordered on my own. Even met people on the tour and continued sight seeing with them after the tour!”
