I went to Myanmar with Iceland en Route last nov-des for 2 weeks on a phototour. I have to say that I got all I ever wanted to and lots more. Myanmar is unique,the tribes we visited are something I thought did not exist in reality any more. The country has so many interesting places and people are very friendly but there are not many tourists. I learned a lot about photography, I am a complete amateur there which was not a problem. Our guides were very helpfu,friendly and had answers to all our questions, no matter if it was photography, culture, politics or other matters. I would highly recommend anyone to go on this trip, you don´t need to be fit or young. Kristin was very helpful regarding the flight to Myanmar and all information you needed before the trip. Go, go. go now is the time to see Myanmar.…

I just recently went on my first solo adventure and photo tour with Iceland En Route to Myanmar. The trip was November 24 thru Dec 5th and we went to many unique locations and met and photographed such amazing people and places. We saw many tribal people and amazing villages where we were able to see many life styles unique to Myanmar. We also went to Buddhist monasteries, monastic schools as well as ancient pagodas. This trip is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone curious about Myanmar. We had a local guide with us who is well versed in local, current and ancient history of Myanmar that only enhanced the tour but also informed us of the safety of travel to this amazing country. I will absolutely travel with Iceland En Route again.…

Our family required a fairly customized photo tour because we were traveling with a young child. From start to finish, Kristin did an amazing job of accommodating all of our requests and providing suggestions for my six-year old so he would not get too bored. Of all of the travel companies we contacted in Iceland, Kristin and Oli were by far the most accommodating, friendly, and responsive and so very easy to work with even though we never spoke on the phone or in person until we arrived in Iceland. The trip itself was simply amazing, our guide the best ever and we are so grateful we were able to work with such wonderful people. A special kuddos to Kristin for bending over backward to make sure my son was able to experience an ice cave during our trip even though he was too young for the usual tours. And Kristin, we loved our ice cave guide - I would highly recommend her. Thank you for all you did!…

A professional photographer friend of mine recommend Iceland En Route. I'm so glad that I took his advice. First of all, Kristin is very nice and very helpful. She gave us great advice on planning our trip as well as partnering us up with a great photographer. We spent a day with Vincenzo. Vincenzo was great! Very patient and flexible with our needs. He's an excellent landscape photographer and my shots are definitely better because of his guidance. He took us to places that I definitely wouldn't have gone to by myself, or even heard of. I'm definitely a better photographer now because of the day we spent with him. Our whole day was 13 hours with him. He drove us all around and gave us great insight into the geology of Iceland. He also taught me more about using filters, how to compose a better shot and how to look at scene. I can't recommend Iceland En Route Tours and Vincenzo highly enough!…

I recently returned from a photo excursion to Iceland with Iceland En Route. What a terrific organization.. Prior to the trip Kristen provided all the information and communications necessary to be prepared for the journey. Once in Iceland Oli and Kristen handled all the logistics of the trip flawlessly. In spite of some rather extreme weather and road closures Oli was able the get us to locations and coach us so we were able to capture some beautiful photographs. I would definitely recommend using Oli for a photo excursion to Iceland(or other locations). He is personable, patient and an excellent photographer.…
