Kismet. The day I was meant to fish was not the day I planned to fish.

I missed the boat my first day but they were so good on the phone and so kind. I got to go the next day and I'm so glad I didn't miss the trip with these guys. I would hands down do this same trip Everytime I come to Iceland. If it was not for the great cooking I would go for the good company. They got us on fish and let us do our thing.perfect mixture of guidance and laid back. It was a perfect day, thank you guys so much. I'll be back for sure!

We have been to Iceland 4 times and this was hands down one of the best things we have done in Reykjavík! We had to postpone our trip by a day because of the weather, and the crew could not have been kinder or more helpful - they got us rebooked right away. What I loved most is how genuine this tour felt. It’s a small local company (run by two brothers), and that makes such a difference. The group was tiny compared to the big operators, which meant more space, more attention, and just an overall relaxed vibe. The crew clearly love what they do (shoutout to Jakob and Julian!), and they made the whole thing feel really personal and fun. The fishing itself was awesome (we caught plenty) and the best part? On the way back to shore they cooked up our catch right on the boat. Fresh fish, straight from the ocean to the grill, while cruising back into Reykjavík! Absolutely unforgettable. If you’re thinking about a sea angling/fishing trip while in Reykjavík, skip the big companies and book with these guys. It was one of the most genuine (and delicious!) tours we’ve ever done! Also - this is stupid to have to say, but they did not ask us for a review (as I have had many other companies do). This is just me trying to make sure you pick the right tour :)
Best fishing tours ever
