How can we help?

Full refund up to 24 hours before departure on all day tours, no questions asked. Multi-day packages have a tiered policy set out in your itinerary — free changes to 30 days, and we always try to rebook before we refund.

Prices are shown in US dollars and Icelandic króna — use the currency switcher at the top of the page to browse in either. Checkout runs through Bókun, our secure booking system, and all major credit and debit cards are accepted.

We recommend it. Our day tours run in small groups — most minibuses take 19 guests at most — so popular departures like ice caves and northern lights hunts fill up days or weeks ahead, especially in winter.

Absolutely — solo travellers are welcome on every day tour at the standard price. On multi-day packages, rooms are not shared between solo guests, so a single supplement is added at booking to cover your private room.

Tell us what you have in mind through the Plan my trip form on the contact page — dates, group size and interests — and a local travel designer will reply within one business day with a tailored itinerary and quote.

Pickup is included from accommodation and designated bus stops around central Reykjavík — your confirmation email lists your exact spot. Be outside and ready when the pickup window opens; the minibus makes several stops, so it can arrive at any point within the window. Pickup is not available from Keflavík Airport or outside the capital area.

Most classic day tours leave Reykjavík in the morning and return in the evening. A full South Coast day — waterfalls, the black-sand beach and a glacier or ice cave — runs about 10–12 hours door to door, with pickup, scenic drives and plenty of photo stops built in.

Small. Our minibus tours carry a maximum of 19 guests, and many departures are capped at 12–14 — enough space to spread out, more time with your guide, and more flexibility at every stop.

No — meals and drinks are not included on day tours. There are stops along the way where you can buy food, and you are welcome to bring your own snacks and water. Multi-day packages include breakfast where the itinerary says so.

Yes — every tour is led by an experienced, English-speaking local guide who gives live commentary throughout the journey: geology, folklore and plenty of local tips.

Dress in warm layers with a waterproof jacket and trousers on top, plus a hat, gloves and warm socks. Sturdy hiking boots that cover the ankle are required for glacier hikes and ice caves — you can rent boots and waterproofs when booking. Skip the jeans: they get heavy and cold when wet.

The aurora is a natural phenomenon, so sightings can never be guaranteed — but your guide monitors the forecast and heads for the clearest skies. If the lights stay hidden, most northern lights tours let you join another departure for free; check the tour page for the exact policy.

Yes — Icelandic weather changes fast and tours operate in most conditions, though the order of stops may shift for safety and comfort. If extreme weather makes a departure unsafe, we offer an alternative date or a full refund.

Yes. Glacier walks are led by certified glacier guides, and all safety equipment — crampons, helmets and harnesses — is provided. The pace is easy to moderate, most travellers with normal fitness can join, and the minimum age is 8 years.

The season runs from late September to mid-April, when the nights are long and dark. Sightings depend on solar activity and clear skies, so plan a few nights in Iceland to give yourself the best odds.

With 3–4 days you can cover the Golden Circle, the South Coast and a northern lights hunt from Reykjavík. To circle the whole Ring Road, allow at least a week — our guided and self-drive packages run from 6 to 10 days.

Guided packages suit travellers who would rather relax and let a local handle the driving, especially in winter. Self-drive gives you full freedom — we plan the route and book the accommodation, you take the wheel. For winter self-drives we recommend a 4x4 and some experience driving in snow.

Very — waterfalls, beaches and lagoons are family-friendly, and children are welcome on most tours. Some activities carry age limits (glacier hikes and ice caves are 8+), so check the tour page or ask us before booking.

Layers, always: warm and waterproof clothing, sturdy walking shoes, plus swimwear for hot springs and geothermal lagoons. A rain jacket, a power adapter for Icelandic (European two-pin) outlets and a refillable water bottle round out the list.

That is what we do. Send your dates, group and interests through the Plan my trip form, and a local answers every message within one business day with a route, stays and tours to match.
