Words are not enough 😃 - That was beautiful. I was hesitant because of the price & I’m so glad we did it. Worth every penny. I could try to explain & it would not even come close

Great journey - Arrived early and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Simon, our pilot, was extremely polite and explained all aspects of our journey. The tour was awesome and the views of the lava fields and Iceland were amazing. Highly recommend this tour.

Helicopter ride over Reykjanes peninsula - Fantastic experience with very knowledgeable pilot (Gunner). Flew over to the blue lagoon from Reykjavik and then landed on the 2021 lava flow - surreal!

It was a good helicopter... - It was a good helicopter tour, though I wish it were longer. The views were breathtaking and the pilot was awesome. Even though we didn’t get to see “live” lava, we did see some steam vents and cooled lava fields, as well as craters.

Good ride and quieter than I thought - Nice trip and quiet considering. Good views even though the volcano was no longer firing off. Easy for everyone to see.

Exceptional experience that everyone must do. - Utterly fantastic experience. Was supposed to be 30/40 mins but we had well over an hour. Pilot was fantastic with the emphasis on safety and a wonderful knowledge of this environment. What more can I say other than this was a brilliant experience and well worth the money. I would do this again in a heartbeat.

A MUST when in Iceland!! - I booked the volcanic tour and it was amazing - I would say mind blowing even! I was a little nervous when i arrived but the staff at the reception was very warm and welcoming :) our pilot Simon was also great and explained a lot about the volcanos and what we were seeing from above. There is even a short stop included at the lavafields. After walking through many lavafields and seeing it on the ground - the helicopter ride was the perfect finish to my holiday in Iceland! Thanks again!!! :)

An active volcano not waterfalls and landings - This was not the tour that we actually booked. We had booked a much longer tour that was called volcanoes and waterfalls. I personally was not happy that they changed it. They told us that it was due to weather which I do understand. They did not give me a refund that was equal to the difference in the price. I felt like we got ripped off although we did get to see an active volcano, that was not what I had looked forward to and paid for months in advance. Buyer beware.
