Incredible first taste of Iceland After a 4 hour flight delay and miserable weather the first morning, our luck changed and we had glorious sunny weather for the rest of the trip which showed a wintry Iceland off in all its glory. Although the trip is short, a lot is packed in and we did and saw more than I'd anticipated. The scenery really was stunning and I would love to go back in summer to explore further. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this trip to others, although I think the weather can have a really big impact on how enjoyable it will be.
Iceland in March is a challenge.....ice and snow underfoot (boot chains provided!) high winds, intermittent torrential rain, bad road conditions. But the beauty of the country more than makes up for any discomfort. Travelling around the whole island, the scenery is constantly changing....wild coasts, snowy mountains, sparkling fjords, black lava flows and of course, wonderful waterfalls. For any lover of the great outdoors, this trip is a must
Delightful Golden Circle Tour We were completely delighted with our guide Torfi on the Golden Circle minibus tour. He was thoughtful, courteous, clearly communicating about each stop before so we would know what to expect. He was so knowledgeable about so many details of Iceland. From his personal experience being born and raised here to his complex detailed geologic knowledge made understandable, we were eager listeners. He patiently answered all our questions, time and again. Our party of three would recommend him with the highest praise. We were comparing notes with friends on a different bus and by far we had the best experience. And he was an excellent driver! Thank you Torfi!
