Lovely tour of waterfalls, hot springs and lava fields. The varied landscapes were beautiful. The guide was friendly, informative and made my family of 10 feel right at home.

Daniel was awesome. We saw everything on our list plus some. He was knowledgeable, interesting and a joy to be with all day. Can’t imagine a better day in Iceland.
The best bet for your Akureyri Visit!

Discovering that all relevant excursions organised by the cruise-line were fully booked, we were a bit apprehensive about booking independently. However, the online booking process and subsequent communications were straightforward, as was the meet up at the Akureyri Port Visitors Centre. The 6-hour tour was comfortable and well-planned, and every bit as interesting and spectacular as we had hoped. Compared with the equivalent cruise-line excursion, our trip was better value, and the minibus instead of a coach made for a more intimate experience. Our guide had a friendly delivery and just the right amount of commentary.
It was great and very nice!!!

We booked 2 of these tours for a family group of 29. We had an amazing tour even though it was a freezing cold day in June. We learned so much about Iceland and saw beautiful countryside. We accidentally left a wallet on the bus and didn’t realize until the following day. The tour guide found it and shipped it back to us in the U.S.A. We highly recommend this tour company. One suggestion for Viator customers….Please be respectful of the tour professionals and cancel your trip with plenty of notice. This company said they were only given 3 days notice of our booking through Viator and we’re not sure they could still offer tours on their site. They had also had instances when they had hired extra guides and rented vans and then had to cancel last minute when the customers cancelled on Viator.
