Reviews of Small Group tours to Iceland
- 10 day Guided tour | Iceland Complete - Small Group
Very good in all respects. But I would have appreciated a more informative guide in relation to the geology we were viewing.
- Best of Iceland
This tour fully met my expectations. Biggy, the tour guide did a very commendable job. Nothing was too much trouble for him to manage. The small group meant any problems were minimal anyway. The group gelled and everybody got on well. The scenery and places we were taken to were just great. The mix of accommodation styles were fine. I really enjoyed Iceland and would recommend the G Adventure style of travel to anybody of reasonable fitness and health.
- Iceland Northern Lights & Golden Circle
I Highly recommend HODEI as your guide . I had an awesome experience touring the golden circle.
