    The highlight of our trip!
    Review of: SuperSaver: Small Group Golden Circle Tour and Silfra Snorkeling Adventure

    Incredible natural wonders, knowledgeable guide and capped off with the most majestic snorkelling adventure in between two tectonic plates. Honestly the snorkelling is something we will be telling our friends about for a long time - you absolutely have to do it!

    This is a well organized tour from pick-up to drop-off. Our driver/guide was Einar who was full of anecdotes, history, and folklore, and made the trip more enjoyable, if that was possible. We were a family group of 7 ranging in age from 15 -...More

    Review of: 3-Day Golden Circle and Ice Cave Adventure from Reykjavik

    We took the 3-day trip through the Golden Circle, Jokulsarlon lagoon, the ice caves, and the glacier hike. I normally sort of hate tours, so I was reluctant to go on this. (We wanted to drive but were nervous to do so in January.) I'm...More
