This trip exceeded my expectations. The ever changing landscape was stunning, the food was excellent (although vegetarians are less well catered for, and it helps to like fish), and all the accommodation was clean and comfortable.

My experience with Expore for the Iceland Northern Lights trip was fantastic. The itinerary and accomadation were excellent. They were located close to the airport/sites we visted during the tour.
Our tour leader, Meika and driver Sverry were amazing! - Very friendly and knowledgeable. They provided excellent context around the various locations we visited and entertained us with various icelandic saga's during the bus rides between destinations. They were also great in giving us plenty of time to explore each area and not once did we as a group feel rushed.
Finally, as a solo traveller the group itself was great, a mix of other solo travellers and couples plus a mix of people who had done many explore tours before and those (like myself) who had not.

What a fantastic trip. Iceland is so full of natural wonder its hard to know what to highlight. The first thing is our guide; a passionate Icelander who brought everything to life and told us all about the detail we might otherwise miss.
We saw blue sky, sunshine and a dusting of snow for the first 3 days then overcast and finally rain and blasts of strong wind. Nothing the weather could throw at us could marr the beauty and splendour of Iceland.
Everything from dormant and dead volcanic craters, thermal baths, glaciers and their iceburgs, larva fields, waterfalls....the list goes on and on.
Lastly, the public - open air - swimming pools and their hot tubs are a must. They refresh you, offer you the chance to wind down and relax and are absolutely wonderful. Do go!
