Iceland Solo Tours for Single Travelers

Loved the trip. It was great to see Iceland in winter. I think we were quite lucky with the weather as a whole. The accommodation was all good. Food expensive. but to a high standard, Thor, our driver kept us safe on the very icy roads. Gusti our tour leader was great. Very sociable and kept us laughing with his stories!!

An excellent itinerary taking in most of Iceland, with an excellent leader who was a fund of local knowledge, both fact and myth. We were lucky to have good weather with clear views of snow-covered mountains, and clear nights with visible aurora. The food, though pricey, was to a high standard, especially the fish soup on Hrisey. As well as the included visit to the Forest Lagoon we had the opportunity to enjoy the public swimming baths in Reykjavik and Akureyri, and hot tubs in some of the hotels.

Where to begin ! A fabulous itinerary blessed with fabulous weather but, most importantly of all, an outstanding guide Vala and excellent driver Hjörtur who, with such knowledge and humour, shared so much with us about their beautiful Iceland. Perfect.

This was my first explore adventure, and what a way to start! Our tour guide Vala was informative and entertaining throughout; mixing descriptions of the scenery, historical information, mythical stories and the occasional bit of her own poetry. The itinerary shows you aspects of Iceland that you may need a month to cover if you were to plan it yourself. We were blessed with good weather throughout, but there was always flexibility built into the schedule depending on conditions and adventurer capability. I thoroughly recommend this experience.

Einar an Icelander was an excellent well informed and considerate guide . One of the best we have had on an Explore tour .! We really enjoyed sight seeing with our group of 9 people around Reykjavík , the waterfalls, the Lava Centre, Reynisfjara beach , Gulfoss and the Northern lights , geysirs and relaxing in the hot water of the Secret Lagoon. Hotels comfortable and clean with good breakfasts. Great experiences , good photographs and memories . .

This was my first experience with Explore as a solo traveller. I throughly enjoyed this trip and although there was a lot in the itinerary, everything we did was at a good pace. Our tour leader Einar was incredible! His knowledge and passion about Iceland was incredible. It’s not always guaranteed that you will see the Northern Lights but we were incredibly lucky to see them when we stayed at Hotel Gulfoss which is a great location as there is no light pollution. Iceland is expensive but I would say it’s totally worth it. This is a holiday that will stay with me and felt it was a real adventure. I absolutely loved it.
