    Location was poor and tour guide was not helpful or provided guidance to track lights that were never seen.
    Snaeland Travel commented on this review
    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the location and guidance during your tour didn’t meet your expectations. The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon and, unfortunately, sightings can never be guaranteed, but our guides are trained to use forecasts and local knowledge to choose the best possible viewing spots. We regret that this was not reflected in your experience and will review this with our team to improve future tours.

    Thank you for your review — we’re very glad to hear that you loved your tour! To clarify, the day tours included in your itinerary are indeed operated by Reykjavík Excursions, one of our trusted local partners. The prices for those individual day tours are the same as when purchased directly from them. The difference in the total package price comes from the additional inclusions we provide, such as hotel accommodation, daily breakfast, booking management, and overall itinerary coordination. Our packages are designed to offer convenience and a seamless travel experience, combining multiple services into one confirmed booking with customer support throughout your journey.

    Thank you very much for your kind and detailed feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the itinerary and the range of experiences included, as well as the quality of the hotels and arrangements. It’s also great to know that your guide made a positive impression with her knowledge and efficiency. We appreciate your suggestion about having a separate driver and guide — that’s valuable feedback and something we’ll take into consideration for future tours. We’re glad you had a good experience overall and hope to welcome you back to Iceland again.

    Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the quality of the accommodations. Most of the hotels on this itinerary are countryside hotels chosen for their scenic locations and authentic Icelandic atmosphere, which often means they’re not in villages or close to town centres. We appreciate your comments about the itinerary detail and will take this into consideration to improve our descriptions for future travellers.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very glad to hear that you found the planning process straightforward and that the information and accommodation met your expectations. We’re truly sorry to learn about the condition of the vehicle. This is not the level of quality we expect from our partners, and your comments about the car’s mileage, exterior condition, and tyre wear are concerning. We’ve passed this on to our car rental partner for review to ensure the vehicles provided meet proper safety and comfort standards in future. We appreciate you taking the time to bring this to our attention—it helps us maintain and improve the quality of our services.

    Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the planned route and found the car and most hotels well organised. We note your concerns about the Fosshotel in Reykjavík and the parking situation, and we’ll review this with our partners. Your suggestion about informing guests of the ParkaApp in advance is very helpful and we’ll include this in future information.

    Snaeland Travel commented on this review
    Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback — we really appreciate it. These kinds of detailed pointers are exactly what helps us continue improving our itineraries. We take your note about directions on board and will make sure to include both compass points and clear right/left indications to make navigation simpler. Regarding the hotel placement on Day 2, sometimes in high season availability can be limited, and while we do our best to secure hotels as close as possible to the suggested route, it may occasionally mean a bit of backtracking. Your comment about the lack of parking signage at Dettifoss is also very valuable. We’ll be sure to highlight this more clearly in our notes so travellers know what to expect. Thanks again for taking the time to share these insights — they help us make the itineraries even better for future guests.

    Very good the circuit, the guide, the hotels. Maybe we missed one more thermal bath and there were too many waterfalls, but we were very happy!
    Snaeland Travel commented on this review
    Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the circuit, guide, and hotels, and that you were very happy overall. We appreciate your suggestions about the baths and waterfalls and will keep them in mind for future tours. PS. The 2026 summer version will have optional visit to the Blue Lagoon.
