I had an excellent time being introduced to a new country that has a unique geological history and cool animal life while hanging out with Harley. It was a great way to focus on what we were seeing, learning and sharing and not have to worry about the logistics. I was able to focus on fun and family.

Traveled around south Iceland with Midgard Adventures. Guide Stephnir was oh so kind, funny, knowledgeable, considerate. Terrific operation and you can't go wrong with these folks.
It would have been nice to have a hotel more centrally located in Borgames. The Hotel Hamar Borgames was nice but extremely isolated. There was nothing to do. Other hotels were centrally located and there were retail and grocery stores nearby.
