Incredible Adventure Through Iceland – Thanks to Vjeran! - I recently took the 5-Day Arctic Adventure tour covering Snaefellsnes, the South Coast, and the Northern Lights, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! Our guide, Vjeran, was absolutely amazing. From the very start, he made sure we had plenty of time to explore each stop without ever feeling rushed. What really stood out was how flexible and passionate he was—he often made extra stops, even if they weren’t on the schedule, just so we could experience everything the area had to offer. Vjeran shared a wealth of information throughout the trip, always with a fun and engaging approach that made even the longest drives feel entertaining. He has a great sense of humor and kept the group smiling the entire time, which really added to the atmosphere of the tour. If you’re thinking about doing this trip, I can’t recommend it enough. The landscapes were stunning, the itinerary was well-balanced, and having a guide like Vjeran made it all the more special. This tour is the perfect way to experience Iceland’s magic in a fun, relaxed, and deeply enriching way.

5 days is the perfect length to see the best of southwest Iceland - This tour was the perfect way to see the best of the Snaefellsnuss peninsula and the south coast! We had Vjeran the first two days and Aaron the last three days and both were incredible and super knowledgeable guides. As two people who both hate driving, getting driven around in a sprinter van was the best. I can't recommend this tour enough!

Best way to see Iceland - We made the best decision to use ARCTIC ADVENTURES to see the wild & dramatic landscape of Iceland. We chose a 5 day guided tour which we felt was the perfect amount of time to see south west & south east coastlines. Our local guides were knowledgeable & good company. Every stop along the way was a wonderful surprise with beautiful scenic views. Plenty of walking & good meals enjoyed with fellow travellers. Such a fantastic & adventurous trip with memories to treasure forever. You can just relax & enjoy the journey.

Use this company and save stress! - The whole experience with Arctic Adventures made our first trip to Iceland an incredible experience! First of all, our guide Gunnar should be retained by the company at all costs! He was all things: tour guide, chauffeur (even when winds were high), knowledgeable (regarding not only where to go, but when, so as to miss peak crowds), and he felt like an old friend even though we just met. Your company takes all the stress out of traveling and sightseeing in a different country. We saw so much more and could sit back and relax knowing navigation, food, lodging, transportation, etc. was already taken care of. I couldn’t possibly do justice explaining the beauty and grandeur of the places we saw. I guess travelers to Iceland will just have to see it themselves. And if you’re going to see them, do yourself a favor and use this company. Hopefully, if you’re lucky, you’ll get to meet my new pal, Gunnar!

What a fantastic way to see Iceland! Amazing - Words cannot even describe how memorable this trip was, it was such an incredible experience. Our trip was 2 different tours combined into one. Our tour guide Mitch was our driver/guide for both tours, we had 5 people only on the bus for 2 days and then a total of 12 for the other 3 days. The trip was amazing, Mitch would change up the plan slightly if the weather was bad and he would be always looking to add extra sights ( not on the itinerary) along the way. He seriously made this trip so much better than I ever dreamed it to be. He was always concerned for our safety, but also helping us to have the best experience in Iceland. We saw and experienced far more than we expected. he gave us all the background info on each site, factual and the folktales. The time allocated to each sight was excellent. The hotels were very nice. Mitch was flexible and never once did he insist we needed to be back at the bus at a particular time to get to the next destination. I felt very relaxed and absolutely loved the various sights. Each day I thought we would be seeing just more of the same, but how wrong was I. Iceland is an amazing country with so many diverse and beautiful places to see and experience. We have been raving about this tour since arriving home, and a few friends are already booking for next year after seeing our photos. I hate bus tours however this was so much different and well worth it. I highly recommend this tour. I can't thank you enough.

Incredible 5 Day Tour! - Action packed 5 days with amazing views. Beautiful island and the guides were great too! Walked over 26 miles in those 5 days so bring comfortable shoes (hiking boots ane best) and be prepared for changing weather by the hour. But if you don’t want to walk as much you don’t have to see all of the sites.

Trip of a Lifetime! - Words cannot even describe how memorable this trip was. Our trip was 2 different tours combined into one, so we had two different guides. We did the west coast & south tour with Katla Ice Cave on the last day. We cannot praise our tour guides enough, Kacper and Hilmar. They were knowledgeable, friendly, ensured we all stayed safe, and were easy to talk to. They gave us all the background info on each site, factual and the folktales. They made sure we had an amazing trip, and honestly they added to our trip! It wouldn’t have been the same without them and we would definitely book this tour again. Both went above and beyond for our group. We had just the perfect amount of time at each location, enough to awe at the scenery + take photos. The hotels we stayed at were so quaint. The Arctic Adventure hotel was my favorite - little cabins in the south coast with no light pollution & the most peaceful location. We got to see the northern lights 3 out of our 4 nights. So many sights were packed into each day without us feeling like we missed anything. 1000% recommend! Thank you so much Hilmar + Kacper, y’all gave us memories for a lifetime!

There's no other place like Iceland - If you're into exploring new places, Iceland is for you. This was a breathless experience. You wouldn't think you're on Earth. Artic Adventures makes sure you are comfortable while exploring the country and Björn made the trip so fun and extraordinary, you should ask for him!

Otherworldly Iceland - must see. - Arctic Adventures has a great reputation, and we were not disappointed! We went in the winter to experience everything Iceland has to offer and have a better chance to see the aurora, which we did. Our tour guide, Vjeran, for the south coast portion was beyond excellent. He is the perfect person for this experience and always made sure everyone was oaky and happy. He's super friendly and interesting, as well as interested in his group. I can't recommend him and Arctic Adventures enough. Iceland is a dream world!
