We had such an amazing time in Iceland, made all the better by our fabulous guide and driver. The tour was fairly fast-paced, but left some time for exploration of local sights and experiences around the itinerary. As very active people, it was sometimes a bit frustrating not to be able to do extended walks in some places, but we are turning this into a positive by having a wish list for a future visit to explore certain areas more on an independent holiday. We feel our guide really did make the trip even better than it already was - she knew so much about each area, and we made extra stops along the way to visit some places off the beaten track that she knew which were not listed on the itinerary. This went a long way to making us feel more like 'locals' rather than the many, many tourists who we saw doing the Golden Circle on the last day. In fact, we felt sorry for those people, who probably only saw a fraction of what Iceland has to offer, while this longer tour offered us a much broader range of experiences. Must-do extras on the tour - the thermal baths in Akureyri (go early in the morning - they are just over the road from the hotel), the lava show in Vik, and the Reykjavik Fish Restaurant in Rainbow Street - an excellent vibe with the most reasonably-priced food we found. A great first night of your holiday visit. Save your pennies and do this trip!!!
