Locations were great. Our guide was well versed in all aspects of the locations. The charge for the steam plant was unnecessary.

Doing what: Reykjavik Super Saver: Blue Lagoon Round-Trip Transport plus Gulfoss and Geysir Half-Day Tour
Absolutely brilliant day tour with only one hitch, we assumed we had bought the Blue Lagoon entry fee included in the price of £71. It was not explained enough in your web site before we went that you have to pay a further (5100 IKR) approx. £28 each to get in!! We hadn't realised we were only paying for the bus there and back. We hadn't taken enough money or a c.c. with us as we were going swimming and luckily they took pity and let us go in but were not happy. It is not explained also that the bus takes you back to the same place and you have to go on a different tour in the afternoon. Great as it was please explain this deal in more details to those booking so they realise they have to pay. There was two other couples on the coach that thought the same as us.
Note from Viator: Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry to hear you were caught off-guard by the entrance fee to the blue lagoon. To view which entry fees may be included or excluded on our tours, please be sure to check the "Additional Information" tab available for each of our tours. There you will find the Inclusions, Exclusions, hotel pick-up information, as well as a variety of other information. We hope this helps you for any bookings you may make with us in the future, and we wish you a very Happy Travels!

Doing what: Northern Lights Night Tour from Reykjavik
No lights first night. No problem as Icelandic Excursions will take you as often as needed til you get to see them at no extra cost and this is open for 2 years. Second night had to be cancelled due to cloud cover. Third night we saw them. What a fabulous sight. So worth the effort. Icelandic Excursions are a brilliant company too - couldn't rate them highly enough. Thanks guys!

We did his on our first day and what a way to start! Scenery doesn't speak for itself so the knowledgeable guide was a reall bonus. We saw Gullfoss,, Geysir, the Thingy, a volcano crater, Faxi falls, crossed 2 continents, saw a nice church, stopped off at a geothermal power station and back in time for tea. Icelandic Excursions were fabulous. Later that night I realised I had lot my phone. Told a driver at the Norhern Lights tour done later the same day and advised they had my phone in the office by the time we got back on the coach. Brilliant day. Brilliant company.

You just have to do this. Indescribably pleasurable. Heaven, in fact, with a bar. Watch the sun though as husband and I both caught it! It would have been no less fun in the wind or the snow.

It was a very enjoyable day with lots of information from our great lady tour guide, she was fantastic. Plenty of photo opportunity and long enough stops at each destination. Would recommend this trip.

Doing what: Day Trip from Reykjavik: Glacier Hiking and Ice Climbing on Iceland's Sólheimajokull Glacier
What a great trip to take and was a once in a lifetime expieriance for me. Our guides were great, full of knowledge and good company. The journey to the glacier gave us a chance to see the landscape, we heard interesting facts about volcanic action over the years. The biggest shame was the weather, it was raining all day, making it cold and, [ of corse ], very wet. Arriving, my partner says it never rains on a glacier! Wrong, But hey ho in true British tradition we went onwards and upwards! What an amazing view awaited us on arrival, a huge big glacier, imerging out of the ground. Along the way we were given loads of great facts about various folds, ravines, huge holes in the glacier. unfortunatley we could not take any photos due to the horrendous rain and wind. To say I was wet is a very huge understatement, I,rather we, were drenched through, I was up to my ancles in water inside my boots. It felt like I was sloshing about in a shower tray! So about two hours in to the expedition, an executive decission was taken by our guides to, frankly, abandon the walk and leave out the climb. We all were in agrement to this decission, but I was so dissapointed. I had sycked myself up for this chance to be an adventurer, and it was unfortunatley taken away from me. But we most definatley could not have gone on with the original plan. We had a long way back, by now we were all soaked and frozen. When we arrived back on the bus I took of all wet gear, and sat in my thermal under wear all the way back [fancy that in a bus full of strangers!] We had a well deserved lunch. I did not get out to see the fantastic waterfall, as I was not warmed up by then, I was so cold and wet. We arrived back at the hotel a sight for soar eyes bedraggled rats is a phrase that comes to mind. Dispite the horrendous weather I so enjoyed the day I would recomend taking a change of cloths with you just incase, it does no harm to have them with you. Better not use them than be so cold and wet

WONDERFUL!! I loved iceland, this tour was great, we saw so many things and the guide was friendly and informative. He stopped at places longer if we wanted to and was very relaxed. The Lunch at the farm was exceptional. I highly recommend this tour to see all the wonders of area in a day.

Had a lot of fun on this tour, the views and stop off points were amazing, make sure you wrap up warm the area around the waterfall is so cold it takes your breath away. Make sure you invest in a good camera its will be worth it.

This was one on my list of the things I wanted to see before I die and it was absolutely worth it, it brought a tear to my eye. The tour guide was really knowledgable and shared many interesting facts about the lights and Iceland itself. Although you travel to the location in a very large tour bus you do not feel crowded when viewing the lights and you might even get to make a few new friends. I would really really recommend getting a professional camera as my little digital casio did not do it justice.
