A wonderful long weekend. The hotels were good with clean rooms, nice beds and great breakfasts. The staff at the hotels were lovely. Our tour guide was amazing, very interesting and informative. He also had a great sense of humour. I enjoyed getting a natives insight into living in such a wonderful place. He judged the characters on the tour well and moved the tour along at a pace that suited us all. We were very lucky that all our fellow explorers were delightful.

A very enjoyable tour which gives a great taste of Iceland's culture and landscape. Einar, our tour leader, ensured that all of the practicalities went very smoothly. He is passionate about his homeland, Iceland, and we all learned a lot about this unique country. I would just say that everything is very expensive in Iceland but I was expecting that.

A magical trip of discovery through Iceland. The group of people I shared this holiday with also made it a fun holiday full of amazing memories. A land of fire and ice, myths and legends not to be forgotten.

Einer Thosteinsson , our guide was super enthusiastic about his homeland The tour was well planned, we went to all the major sites without being rushed The hotels were all very good if a little overheated I knew we weren’t going to be met at the airport so that was no problem but I would have liked an introductory meeting either the night we arrived or before we clambered onto the coach the following morning, I missed the small sign on reception that gave the first meet-up time Otherwise a superb trip
