“The Coach and Tour Comoany Jewel didn't show up to collect us at our hotel at 0930. They said they couldnt find the hotel. Contacted Viator who offered a 1200noon with the same company. We agreed to then be told it was full and not available. And book an alternative date. Unfortunately we were on our last day, which put a downer on our holiday. Viator made excuses for the Tour company which fell on deaf ears as thats what I do for a living in Ireland. Disgraceful treatment.”

Hop aboard a heated high-speed boat from Akureyri to hunt humpback whales in Eyjafjörður, with thermal gear, Wi-Fi, and expert guides.
“It was great, the fjord is absolutely beautiful. We thought we might see nothing but once we saw the first whale, they were just everywhere. We were very lucky :) we stayed a bit longer than planned, because we were searching for whales longer than expected. The tour operator made sure we are all satisfied by staying a little longer.”
Small-group Aurora hunt from Reykjavik with hot chocolate, photo breaks, dark-sky stops, and a 3-year free retry if clouds win.
“We really enjoyed this tour - our guide, Roman, was very entertaining and knowledgeable, and took us to some great locations. The night was clear but the moon was bright; however, we saw some amazing displays, particularly at the first and fourth (final) stops. I would definitely recommend a small group tour as it is easier for a smaller vehicle to access the good spots, and also nicer not to be in a huge crowd.”

She’s incredibly knowledgeable and eager to share fascinating facts about Iceland along with great suggestions. Michael, our driver, was fantastic as well — in all this rain and fog, he made sure we felt safe the entire time. Thank you both!”
