I typically do not use a travel agency but quickly became overwhelmed when planning our Icelandic adventure. After much research and investigation, I decided to use the services of Iceland Unlimited to help me plan our 12 day journey. This turned out to be one of the best travel decisions I have made. Ms. Guðrún Halla Friðjónsdóttir was our contact person and she did a fantastic job. Gudrun took the time to get to know us and learn the kinds of things that we enjoy doing and planned the perfect vacation for us. She was also quick to respond to any questions during the planning of our itinerary. Upon our arrival in Iceland we went to her office and met with her to review her detailed ‘color coded’ map and her ideas for our daily activities. The pace of the trip, the places she suggested and the activities she recommended were perfect. In addition, the hotels she arranged and her restaurant recommendations were excellentl. I truly cannot say enough good things about her customer service and follow through. I would unequivocally recommend Iceland Unlimited to anyone planning an adventure to this amazing country and highly recommend Gudrun for her outstanding service.

My review is long overdue as our trip dates back to the summer of 2016 but I can't get this trip out of head and am impatient to go back to Iceland.
Iceland Unlimited treated us like family (the ones they like:-)) and really listened to what we were looking for together with our friends from the US. We didn't want the standard touristy things but did want to get a good feel for the diversity in nature that Iceland has to offer.
Iceland Unlimited (more specifically Unnur!) was a fantastic guide in what would work for us. Meeting you when arriving in Reykjavik and taking us through the 10 day tour on a map was more than we expected and really helped get us even more excited about the adventure that was about to start.
We loved every minute of it and we will be back!
Thanks again Unnur & Iceland Unlimited!

I selected Iceland Unlimited to plan my 10 day Ring Road trip after collecting reviews and information on the other Iceland trip planners. I was not disappointed. The folks at IU nailed the agenda, according to what I wanted to see and do, for the ten day drive. I wanted to focus on hiking during the trip and plan provided road and trail maps. They set up the hotels, which were excellent. A brief meeting with my trip planner the day we headed out for the drive was valuable. Would I use them again? Yes. Period.
Gudrun at Iceland Unlimited help book our custom tour and everything worked out fantastic. She picked the perfect hotels for us, and arrange a wonderful private guide who took us to special places that not all the tourist go as well. Couldn't have been better!

We chose Iceland Unlimited based on all the positive reviews on this site, and we were not disappointed. Andri, our agent at Iceland Unlimited, customized the "ICELAND ROUND TRIP IN 10 DAYS" to suit our requests, and was always happy to address our questions and concerns prior to the trip. When we arrived at Keflavík we were met by a driver holding a sign with our name. After driving us to our first hotel, he gave us a tote bag which contained a detailed personalized daily itinerary as well as a large Iceland map on which Andri labeled the key points of interest. He even noted a detour in the South we needed to take due to road construction. Also included was a loaner cell phone for local calls. Later that day, we were able to go to the office and meet Andri, as well as go over the map and itinerary with him.
The hotels were all lovely, and the additional activities Andri recommended were all worthwhile. When planning the whale watching excursion prior to the trip, Andri actually called the company running the excursion to find out which of their boats gave the smoothest ride!
We had a great and memorable time in Iceland, and I would strongly recommend Iceland Unlimited, and Andri in particular, if you are planning to visit Iceland.
We lived in Keflavik, Iceland in 1973, when I was stationed at the U.S. Naval Station Keflavik. We have dreamed and talked about returning to Iceland for many years, and our dream came true this year as we celebrated our 45th Wedding Anniversary by booking a Self Drive Tour through Iceland Unlimited. Our contact at Iceland Unlimited was Andri Astradsson. From day one, Andri made it clear that it was his desire to provide the perfect vacation to mark our return to Iceland. He asked questions, answered our question, and took the time to help us plan the perfect trip. After months of planning, our trip to Iceland was absolutely the best vacation that we have ever taken. The pace of the trip, the places that we visited, the hotels that Andri booked for us, everything was absolutely seamless! We can't say enough about how happy we are with how our booking was handled. We would absolutely recommend Iceland Unlimited to anyone who wishes to travel to Iceland. And if you're lucky enough to have Andri as your booking agent you'll see why we can't say enough good things about him.
