Great way to see several sites without using your own car - There were several stops on the tour. Particularly interesting were: Godafoss, Dettifoss, and the Lava Rocks. The guide was very friendly and helpful in giving info and answering questions. She was also very nice about taking pictures of everyone.

Fantastic day tour! - Fantastic day tour! Our guide took us to more stops than on the original list, including the area explaining the building of the tunnel and how they control the heat and the water. The waterfalls were breathtaking. Hint, ensure you have really good walking shoes as the jagged rocks and steep steps that make up the walk to Dettifoss are challenging - the path is not easy - and the wind whips around you. Overall, a really great experience and so many things to see!

Beautiful, very friendly and informative - This was a wonderful trip. Our guide was very knowledgeable about volcanos, history and iceland in general. We had a autistic child with us and we're able to bring her colapsable wheelchair with for half the excursions.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (if I could!) - I did the Goðafoss, Mývatn Lake, and Dettifoss tour with Fox Adventures, and it was nothing short of spectacular. Our guide, Matti, went above and beyond every step of the way. Since this was a cruise tour, it started quite early. As a non-cruiser, I discovered the hard way that no cafés in Akureyri are open that early 😅. I joked about it to Matti, and just a few minutes later, he surprised me with a coffee, straight from their tour hut setup. A small gesture, but such a thoughtful and welcome one. The group I joined was fantastic, and because we made great time, we not only got to linger at all the main stops, but also made bonus stops at Víti Crater, a natural hot spring, and even enjoyed a scenic drive through Akureyri’s old town and past its highlights. As if the day wasn’t already one of the best tours I’ve ever had, Matti capped it off by noticing me walking back into town after drop-off and kindly giving me a lift. Talk about next-level hospitality. 👉 If you only do one tour in Akureyri, make it Fox Adventures - and ask for Matti. You won’t regret it!

Godafoss and Dettifoss - This was a great experience, it was a smaller 20 person van and our tour guide, I believe her name was Johana, was amazing. She went out of her to help us take pictures and gave us great insight at all of our tour stops and during the drives on the way. The two waterfalls were absolutely beautiful and seeing the volcanic landscapes made it feel like we were on another planet. This tour does involve a lot of walking though at the waterfall sites so make sure to wear good trail shoes. Also, the company did an excellent job of communicating with us by e mail prior to the start of the tour to let us know exactly where to meet and we were able to beat all the large tour bus crowds at every stop we made. I highly recommend using this company for your tours in Iceland!

Wonderful Day in Iceland! - Excellent and comprehensive tour. Our guide Tina and our driver Lena were an outstanding team. They kept us on track and by doing so, they were able to provide a couple of extra experiences beyond those listed. They were both very personable and engaging. Tina provided great commentary and education about what we were seeing both from present and historical viewpoints. Lena enhanced the dialog ensuring that we all learned everything there was to learn. The small group made for a great tour. I do want to mention that both Tina and Lena went out of their way to ensure our comfort and provided sage advice regarding accommodations for our capabilities at each of the sites visited. Excellent tour! Excellent guide! Excellent driver! Excellent day! Last word of advice: if your guide makes a recommendation, take it! The meat (lamb) soup was one of the best things I've tasted in my life!

Waterfall wonders of the north - Just returned from a wonderful day of scenic highlights with Johanna from Fox Adventure. Particularly enjoyed the spectacular waterfalls: Godafoss, Dettifoss and Selfoss - a priority after marvelling at Gulfoss and various southern waterfalls on a previous trip - but there was much else to see with an excellent guide on a well-paced tour that allowed time for several pleasant short walks in the Icelandic nature. We weren't cruise-ship passengers but really appreciated the trip after a similar journey paid for four months in advance was scrapped by another company only a few days out.
