Customer Reviews
Enjoyed the tour very much. Had plenty of time to explore on our own and sample the local cuisine. The only drawback was while traveling we noticed several tour companies that specialized in taking small groups up to the glaciers and actually driving around on them. This would have been something that we would have been interested in doing. Listening to others in our group it would seem that many of them were interested in that as well.
Well-planned itinerary. Customer-oriented Tour Director and driver.
It is quite different than countries of Europe . Please tell to your guid/director to talk a little louder as most of the travelers are old ; and face the travelers when speaking .
Our trip was great! We enjoyed exploring Reykjavik, the Western Peninsula of Iceland, the Golden Circle and the Blue Lagoon. Our guide, Mike, and tour bus driver, Lucas, were also very good… informative, friendly and helpful. We felt it was good value since we booked two nights separately on each end of the trip and the hotels charged $500/night! We would have liked to have spent more time at Thingvellir National Park and Gullfoss instead of attending the inclusive dinner at the “Join a Local Storyteller and her Famous Songwriter Husband for an Exclusive Dinner.” He unfortunately is very elderly now and having some dementia issues. She is as well. This part of the tour could definitely be eliminated with more of a leisurely day on the Golden Circle. We did like the optional puffin and lava tour! We also suggest that the hotel in Borganes modify their breakfast area. It was super crowded and we felt it was like a feeding frenzy!!
Most when going to Iceland, want to see and be in nature. This tour tried to balance nature with Cultural stops. Stopping at the Folk Museum in Akranes and the visiting the Black Church were a complete waste of time. I didn't see one person in my tour that had interest in either of those stops. Iceland is beautiful and I personally was hoping to spend more time in the beauty of Iceland. Overall, I enjoyed my trip but would have rated it a 5 star if I saw more of the natural beauty of the country,
