1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

The entire experience was amazing and so well organised!

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Def spend time at Snafellsnes - The hotel that was booked there - Snaefellsnes Hotel Rjukandi was my favourite. I would give the whale watching a miss next time but do one of the puffin watching trips instead. The snorkelling was amazing, a real highlight.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Absolutley, when we explored the glacier is was confronting to see how quickley the glacier was shrinking.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

Amazing -It was something we looked forward to and saved for for so long and devistated that it is over....

review 6 Oct 2023

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Seeing some of the geological wonders of Iceland. The visit to Heimaey was just one of the highlights but we rank it at the top.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

As we did not have the time (nor the money) to visit the entire country and all of its many museums we decided to visit the Perlan in Reykjavik. Highly recommended and totally worth the cost of the entry ticket. You also may get beautiful views of the city as it is located on a hilltop but this is weather dependent.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Yes. We always make an effort to support local businesses. For those interested in natural (plant) dyeing of wools, we highly recommend a visit to the Hespa near Selfoss.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

Five stars. We just wish we had more time and perhaps a bit less rain.

review 22 May 2022

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

The hot spring area, lava exhibition, Seljalandsfoss waterfall (and nearby other waterfall) were all highlights. We also enjoyed one day walking round Reykjavik. The meal at The Lighthouse Inn was superb.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

One day in Reykjavik exploring is very worthwhile, but sufficient, unless you are interested in the museums. Check out the availability of places to buy food before you travel as it is not always easy to find. Be prepared to pay even more than you think you will for food and drink.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Only in as much as it supported their tourist industry.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

An enjoyable trip. Glad we went but don’t feel a need to return.
