Akureyri tour with Joanna at Viltour. Excellent

We had an excellent tour over 6 hours with Joanna and cannot recommend her highly enough. Not only did she give a great tour but gave a lot of information about the various sites and left us feeling we had seen as much of the highlights of Akureyri as there were to see. So much better in our small group of 6 than anything we could have booked with our cruise line and significantly better value! Joanna drove carefully and kept to the time we needed to be back at the ship. I recommend Joanna without hesitation and booking with her, you will not be disappointed. 5 Stars all the way in every respect.
