“Ontzettend gave ervaring gehad! Voor de tijd had het geregent dus het terrein was op sommige plekken lekker modderig. Onze gids had een fijn tempo en stopte af en toe om ons meer uitleg te geven over de natuur en het leven op IJsland. Echt een aanrader! ☺️”

Guided Lake Myvatn and Goðafoss day tour from Akureyri with geothermal mud pools, lava caves, fjord views, and optional Myvatn Nature Baths.
“A pleasant tour with beautiful scenery, although disappointing changes on the day. Entry to the lagoon was not included (as it had been on previous tours), and the lagoon visit was changed due to refurbishment without prior notice, had we known earlier, we would have cancelled and visited Goðafoss independently. The bus heating also wasn’t working, which made the journey uncomfortable.”

“We had an amazing experience on the buggy tour. Our guide, Alejandro, was informative, kind, and fun. We loved riding around and the landscape was amazing. We would definitely recommend for others!”
Guided Lake Mývatn geology, a geothermal soak, and a northern lights hunt from Akureyri, with shuttle help for easyJet arrivals.
“This included transfer to and from the airport, northern lights and lake Myvatn. Ziggie was our guide/driver for all and he was fantastic. We had a great time on both trips and would definitely recommend”
