Ice cave tour - Eli was an amazing Ice-cave tour guide!! We had a little trouble with our vehicle, but Eli was very calm, kept us safe, and got us right back on the road to continue our amazing ice cave tour. A true Greek Viking! The views of the caves and glacier were amazing 😍

An Icelandic concentrate in 2 days - 2d group excursion and mini-bus with our guide David. David is Icelandic and speaks very good English. He has a lot of humor and a field experience of more than 10 years very appreciable. It was a pleasure to do this excursion with him: good job David! 😉 We were very lucky on these 2 days: very correct (positive) temperatures for a month of December and sunshine every day! Visits to natural sites were planned at the right time of day (a few hours of sunlight per day). We took full eyes and left with beautiful memories.

Best experience ever - We joined the 2-day south coast tour by Aurora Hunter. The schedule was well-planned according to the weather. We were able to see everything mentioned in the itinerary and our tour guide Thor even brought us to some amazing photo taking spots on our way back to Reykjavik. He was very funny and helpful. We had so much fun listening to his stories and local music playlist! Also, the breakfast included in the hotel was superb! Highly recommend this tour.

An amazing experience - We fully recommend this trip. Those two days were packed with activities and stunning views. Our guide and driver, Sjonni, was very skilled in driving in the always changing Icelandic weather. He was always on time, friendly and informative, adding a great musical selection to the experience.

Trip with Aurora Hunters - We took a tour w Carlos on Aurora Hunters. A few pieces of advice while they grow the business/experience.... More content to entertain and educate the clients. More icelandic history, Stories or sagas, modern culture, climate, economy, etc... this was covered but very little. The drive is very long so the more content built into the tour the better... perhaps reserve 45 minutes for each category. Another suggestion would be to perhaps incorporate a fun quiz on each subject covered by the driver. This will get the customers more involved and will help “break the ice” Last suggestion would be to provide a full itinerary on stops along the way. We were confused as to which stops were next and how long it would take to get there. Having a said all that, Carlos was a great guide and was truly nice to get to know him. That part was great! All the stops along the way we’re also fantastic and we were extremely happy with our experience. Thanks Dragon!
