Godafoss
Our journey takes us along Eyjafjörður, one of Iceland's longest fjords, to our first destination, the Goðafoss waterfall, which holds great significance in Iceland's history. If we are fortunate, we may witness a rainbow and our guide will provide guidance on capturing the best photos.

Geology class on a bus!

5.00Our guide Jon was funny and kind. He kept us entertained with stories and his knowledge of Iceland’s Geology. The views were amazing and the baths were relaxing - especially since they were our last stop! Slept great that night. Sit as close to the front of the small bus as you can… the views were somewhat obstructed from the back two rows.
Wonderful tour with geothermal bath

5.00The cave was interesting and the water fall was beautiful; well worth the climb up to the top. Earth lagoon was closed for Reno so we went to Forest Lagoon instead. We loved the bath at Forest Lagoon.

5.00I had an incredible time on the Goðafoss and Lake Mývatn tour with Fox Adventures. Our guide, Baldur, truly made the day special. He is hilarious, incredibly knowledgeable, and kept us entertained with a perfect mix of local stories and fascinating facts about the landscape. The pace of the tour was very relaxed—we never felt rushed at the sights. A highlight was the personal touch: Baldur even took us to a local supermarket and helped us pick out the best Icelandic sweets to take home! If you want a fun, stress-free way to see Northern Iceland, I highly recommend this tour and asking for Baldur.
A great day out, highly recommended

5.00Baldur picked us up from our hotel, 9am as arranged. We started our tour almost immediately with lovely views of the fjord at sunrise and moonset. Baldur is really friendly and knowledgeble, being local himself. We had a very comfortable , clean and maintained car, super cosy . We took our time at each of the sites, we were never rushed round, and Baldur was keen to show us minor sites that were just as interesting as the main attractions. A fantastic day out. Would definitely recommend .
Good Job Fox Tours!

5.00Our cruise ship was delayed a day, but Fox Adventure was able to reschedule and contacted everyone with the new info. Our guide, Johanna, picked us up at the pier, and we enjoyed a beautiful day at Godafoss waterfall, Myvatn Lake and nearby craters, Dimmuborgir lava formations, Grjotagja cave and tectonic plates, Gjaldskylda geothermal area, and finally...some relaxation time in the thermal baths. Johanna was friendly and informative, and was more than happy to answer questions and take pictures for people. A truly enjoyable day!

5.00Good amount of time at each site. Guide walked with us to main points of interest at each site, shared info and took photos for us if we liked. Tour departed in am before all the other tours do so we were first to arrive at first stop and early at most others, so small crowds all day. Scenic drive from point to point. Guide did a great job seeing to ea h person in the group.
