Awesome tour/Awesome guide-driver - This tour was by far the best one we took while in Iceland. Our Guide/driver Elsa, was not only knowledgeable & informative but so sweet & kind. She accompanied us at each stop but gave us leeway to adventure out on our own too. She was also an excellent driver & not only told us about the history & significance of each stop but since she grew up in Akureyri she knows all the local stories too! I highly recommend her & this tour!

Great guide to Godafoss & greenery! - Perfectly timed stops with an excellent guide. Peter was personally interesting while keeping us on schedule and informed on all things Iceland! Everything was well coordinated, and the stop for complementary coffee, pastry and the clean bathroom stop at the small hotel at Godafoss was a nice bonus. Great scenic tour and a wonderful guide.

Wonderful Tour - We had a great day on this tour. Small group tour is definitely the way to visit these waterfalls and crater. Our tour guide was very good. I don't remember his name. Hiking up the crater was a little tiring but worth the walk.

Good Day with Excellent Company - Birkir was PERFECT! I am not going to go into the long story of how we ended up with Birkir. I am just happy that he was our guide. He knows everything about Iceland. He clearly loves Iceland, and he wants you to know, and love, Iceland as much as he does!! I have never met any guide with such humor, confidence and knowledge. He really likes his job. This man is a gem!!! Saga Travel might actually have one of the best customer service I have ever experienced. Again, I will not go into details about the first tour guide. I will just say that Saga takes its customer service very seriously. They go above and beyond to ensure that you have a good experience. I am shocked by the professionalism and prompt response. You are doing a huge disservice to yourself by not using this company. I absolutely appreciate them, and I wholeheartedly endorse them!!!

Highly recommend this... - Highly recommend this tour. Sage travel was easily located in the Akureyri port and left right on time. Rúnar was our tour guide and he was excellent. His knowledge and passion for Iceland were supremely evident, and I can’t rave enough about how excellent he was. There wasn’t a lunch provided but the tour made a stop right on our route at a grocery/convenience store. At godafoss, Saga travel had an arrangement with the Hotel right next to the waterfall that let us get some free coffee and Icelandic pastries as well as use a restroom with zero line/ cost, which was very cool. Of the three tours we’ve done in Iceland so far, all with different companies, this one was the best.

Excellent Tour - Peter was our tour guide for the day. My wife and I had the best experience seeing the beautiful waterfalls and scenery . Peter is very knowledgeable about the area and the country of Iceland. He was prompt with our pickup and drop off to our cruise ship. We highly recommend Saga and Peter the best tour guide!!!!
