I like that Gadventures always find compatible roommates for each of my trip. The trip was well planned, well resourced and fun. It was a timely turn around of the faulty vehicle so that it does not affect the trip and the guide's resourcefulness in making things happen.

I had a fantastic experience! The hikes through the untouched landscapes of Eastern Iceland were truly a highlight. Kudos to our CEO Mike, whose deep knowledge of the region and passion for hiking made the tour very enjoyable—and allowed us to experience some truly breathtaking nature.
