My Review
This was a fantastic trip. There were only four of us, with an excellent guide. We saw so much, had enough time at each place to wander, look, ask questions, take photos, etc. My overriding feeling on returning was that Iceland is such a different place, with stunning scenery - it's one of those places, along with watching the sun go down over the Grand Canyon, that everyone needs to see!!

Oh wow! This was so lovely. The agony of the brief cold bit - going out in to the freezing cold in just your cosi - was so worth it. The geothermal waters were so amazing. We stayed in for ages. It was quite surreal - drifting around in hot water, in the very cold outside, with steam all around, and people covered in the wonderful white mud to soften the skin. Fantastic. If I were going again, I'd give us longer than the 3 hours.

A really good trip to help us get our bearings, make sure we didn't miss any of the main things there are to see. We could then wander on a different day and see other things in our own time. Gulfoss and the geysirs were magnificent. The guide was also very good.

Our first trip was cancelled because of cloud cover. We knew that nothing was guaranteed of course, but went on the next available trip just in case, and, after quite a long trip out to 'chase the possibilities', we saw the elusive lights!! It was well worth the trip, even though they weren't at full strength. I guess we must have stood watching them for over an hour, before I felt myself shivering with the extreme cold. 'Awe and wonder' can only stand so much cold!! A fun guide and a lovely trip. Most of us fell into a contented sleep on the way back.
