We did the Golden Circle tour and our guide was Tomasz. He was very knowledgeable and funny, although his accent made it hard for the group to understand him so many people were confused about what he was asking or saying. Overall we still had a great time visiting a volcano, fault line, geysers and waterfalls. We would have preferred spending more time at the geyser site as it was combined with lunch and 70 minutes to visit the site and eat lunch (not to mention using the restrooms) was cutting it very close to departure time. We basically gulped down our soup and carried the rest of our lunch onto the tour bus. 90 minutes would have been ideal. Tomasz took use to have locally made ice cream at a dairy farm and even helped a fellow passenger find her wallet she had lost. Overall super fun, super welcoming, just want a little more time.

This tour exceeded my expectations and was indeed a memorable experience.

Apart from the first day of travelling we were very fortunate to have dry and often sunny weather. We also had a marvellous guide who was knowledgeable, well organised, and occasionally funny. He managed to get the balance of Icelandic music, informative commentary, and contemplative solitude absolutely correct. Thank you Siggi.

Iceland is a magnificent country with stunning geology, a deep sense of its history and beautiful scenery. We saw all of that on this trip.

The highlights - and there were many:

Northern Lights several times, a humpback whale so close it felt touchable, the Myvatn hot lagoon to ourselves, and a stunning drive across the snowy wild country from Egilsstaðir to Myvatn. Most of all being woken by my Aurora App at 0430 and having the northern lights roaring silently above me at the Wilderness centre outside in the cold windy darkness.

The hotels were all comfortable, especially the Berjara chain in which we stayed twice.

I have seen sixty seven winters this was the first 'organised tour' holiday I have ever done - to my surprise it was excellent.

We toured the Golden Circle. Great way to see many things. Lily was our guide. She was fantastic. She gave us so much information and details. She also told us the best way to view the Northern lights.

Superb price for value. We did the 6-day Around Iceland trip with Vjeran.

We saw more than we expected, the sights were incredible, our guide adjusted the trip based on the weather (and was very friendly + funny). Accommodation was varied and good, and we had a mix of exploring and sight seeing every day. Got to meet a lot of locals, who were all very friendly.

The group was great as well - though this is clearly more by chance!

10/10 would recommend - though keep in mind your guide likely makes all the difference given you spend so much time with him/her! Thank you Vjeran - we were lucky to have you as our guide.

Our 8 day northern lights tour with Vjeran was amazing! Truly knowledgeable, amazing sense of humor, some breathtaking (sometimes literally) off-script excursions, and a wonderful set of companions has made our trip to Iceland truly memorable.

Worst experiences ever. My partner and I booked a couple tours with Arctic Adventures, the lava field and the northern lights chase. The northern lights chase bus smelled so badly of chemicals that my partner couldn't breathe and started having a panic attack. We had to get off the bus on the edge of Reykjavik and walk an hour back to the hotel.

Arctic Adventures refused to refund our money because "despite the smell, the tour was operated."

Pick a different company.

Great once and a life time experience! But our guide times took 5 photos and all of them were blurry and unfocused to the point that you couldn't tell who was who. The group photo wasn't even angled at our faces

The advertising promises snowmobile tour on the glacier.
My friend and i signed up for Reykjavik pick up option. Pick up was timely then drove around city for a while picking up others. This followed by 1.5 hrs ride to their base not far from Gullfoss. After a half and hour spent in their cafe we were fitted with coveralls, helmet and balaclava (recommend bring your own). Next step was another 45 minute drive on monster snow truck-bus on bad road covered with mixture of snow ice and mud til we reached the snow field where they keep snowmobiles. After bried instruction we rode for about half an hour to the entrance to the ice cave. Spent half an hour milling aroumd there and then reversed the steps. The total time from pick up to drop off on town was about 8.5 hrs.
The guides were exceptionally nice. The snomobile ride for the novice was unnerving several snowmobiles flipped due to uneven terrain amd sudden bumps (no onjiroes). The ice cave is basically melted out cavity at the edge of the glacier, we had about a dozen and half people and we filled it.
Curiously we were never actually on the glacier. Thw snowmobile ride was actually on the snow field that typically melts in summer. So on essence you can just ride snowmobile in any snowy place in the world.
Visibility was minimal with occasional glimpses of neighboring peaks (which you may just as well see from the road ).
We went there in mid march.
So you will enjoy it of you never seen ice cavity, want to ride snowmobile on ungroomed terrain on a snowfield and if lucky with weather want to see some snow covered rocky peaks and have a few hundred dollars to spend. Again, the guides were very nice and informative.

Highly recommend! I thought I was going to have to leave Iceland without seeing the Northern Lights, but Arctic Adventures made my dream come true and provided photographic evidence. Would use again.

This is my second time going to Iceland and
booking with Artic Adventures. Each time it's amazing, the guides are always super friendly, fun and knowledgeable.

I did the snowmobiling adventure and it was probably some of the most fun I've ever had.

I highly recommend using this company to anyone visiting Iceland!
