The booking porocess was easy, and customer service was responsive. I contacted 4 companies about the tour I was interested in. Two of the companies I contacted didn't answer me at all. One of them was basically a chatbot that said "do it yourself." Only bookmundi had human agents to help.

day 1Snaefellsnes Peninsula
Reykjavik - Borgarnes - Arnarstapi - Hellnar - Djupalonssandur - Hellissandur. Our Icelandic adventure begins as we depart Reykjavik. You will be collected from a designated central pick-up point at 9:00 a.m. Please be aware that the entire pick-up process might take up to 30 minutes. Check the tour Trip Notes and your booking documentation for information about the pick up point in Reykjavik. We will journey west from Reykjavik along the coastline of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. Our first stop will be Borgarnes, known for its Viking history. We’ll then visit the basalt columns at Gerduberg before heading to Ytri Tunga’s golden-sand beach. We will continue to Budir, a hamlet with stunning Snaefellsnes landscapes. Our next stop is the fishing village of Arnarstapi, where we’ll explore the area. We then have the option to tour the Vatnshellir Cave at an extra fee, an ancient lava tube in Snaefellsnes National Park, reminiscent of Jules Verne’s “A Journey to the Centre of the Earth.” Those not joining the caving tour can visit the Malarrif visitor center and its lighthouse for no charge. Onwards to the stunning Djupalonssandur Beach known for its black sand. We’ll take a short hike along the pebble-strewn shore, explore shipwreck remnants, and try lifting stones to test our strength like the old fishermen. If travelling in winter (September - March) keep your eyes peeled for the Northern Lights from our rural accommodation in Hellissandur. Please note: This tour is modular, meaning it is made up of separate excursions and activities. You will have different guides and will be joined by different groups for each section of the itinerary. All of the tour inclusions remain the same.
