“Amazing trip. Lot of things to see. In my mind this really showcases the amazing nature of Iceland. There was enough time in every stop and that was really important. Our designated tour guide moved rapidly so that we had time to see everything. Also his stories and knowledge of snaefellesnes was interesting. Lunch schedule was little bit tight but otherwise all gucci.”

Climbing to top of the crater is literally breath-taking on a sunny day - and perfect for photos!”

The sights did take time to get to, but that was expected. Kirkjufell was lovely at sunset, and the beach with the seals was surprisingly peaceful and beautiful. The landscape had recently been dusted with snow, so everything looked magical. We also were able to see the glacier and it was amazing!”

Worth the drive from Reykjavík!”
