    Marina Travel 3 day tour wasn't my first choice, but had to book quickly after Arctic Adventures canceled on me 2 weeks before the trip that I had booked months ago. I am very happy how responsive Marina Travel team was, the booking and the communication was great. Everything was well organized, and despite the heavy rain that followed us, we had fun! Very nice experience, I will highly recommend.

    Our trip was great! Two things really highlight our trip… the communication by the TourRadar/Marina Travels staff and then our tour guide Hinrik. Hinrik is competent and very accommodating. His attitude is what you wish in every tour guide. I could not have been able to do my glacier trek without his support. He made the minibus rides entertaining, informative and relaxing. The hotels were all ok except one. Good locations. We only spent the sleep time in the hotels. Overall our trip with TourRadar was really good though we had airline issues like missed baggage, cancelled return flight and then delayed flights.

    I really enjoyed the tour. It provided a wonderful introduction to Iceland's south coast. Our guide for the south coast stretch, Thalus, was excellent: knowledgeable and engaged while being able to adapt nimbly to weather conditions in a way that enhanced the experience considerably. Accommodation was comfortable and it was nice to stay in the Icelandic countryside.

    Could give more time for sight-seeing upon reaching the destination as many people came back little late to the bus than the time allotted by the tour guide. Liked the hotels selected for stay. I would recommend to friends.

    Our tour was wonderful. Thales Mars was our guide and he could not have been more accommodating, more passionate or more informative. He went out of his way to relate to the guests, meet our needs and show us beautiful scenery in Iceland. Thales made the tour great. We will highly recommend this tour to others.

  • D

    Dana

    Asked on April 21st, 2025

    Wants to know about glacier cave entry on day 3 of tour

    Tour Details
    • Marina TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      Blue Ice Cave visits are not available in May due to safety concerns from melting. Tour still includes glacier hike and amphibian boat tour.

  • D

    Donna

    Asked on July 25th, 2024

    How much hiking is involved in the Golden Circle tour? If the glacier hiking is not doable for my spouse, will we be able to walk a bit at his own pace without the group and then head back to the bus? And do other stops on the tour require uneven or strenuous walking?

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Marina TravelOperatorWritten July 2024

      The walking distances for the stops during this 3-day tour are short and on even ground/gravel paths, usually just a few minutes from where the minibus is parked. Regarding the Glacier Hiking, it involves a one-hour walk on the glacier with a certified Glacier Guide. It's important for the entire group to stay together during this activity. While it is not difficult, it requires a moderate level of effort and good stability on the crampons. Therefore, it is not recommended for anyone with mobility issues. If someone chooses not to participate in the Glacier Hiking, they will need to wait on the bus until the rest of the group completes the experience.

    • D

      Donna

      TravelerWritten July 2024

      For someone who is comfortable walking with a cane for about 1/2 hour, will this still work? Also, for arranging flights, would we need to fly in the day before and leave the day after - and do you have recommended places we should look for lodging for those days if so?

    • Marina TravelOperatorWritten July 2024

      The most amount of walking would be done in the Hop-on Hop-off tour on the 5th day. But even then they can choose how much they want to walk. The other day tours bring the clients quite close to the sights and they would not need to walk very much. If they choose the 6-day tour they can just arrive on the 1st day of the tour as it includes the transfer from the airport to Reykjavik and then depart on the 6th day as it also includes the shuttle transfer from Reykjavik back to Keflavik Airport.
