    Really difficult as it was all amazing but probably diamond beach, Dettifoss, sunrise at the top of the mountain after the jeep trip up, the hot springs at Myvatn, and seeing the northern lights several times, each time being quite different.

    Tara

    Asked on January 31st, 2024

    I would be travelling solo and am an airline employee so also flying on a space available / standby basis. Ideally I would come to Iceland a couple days early to be sure to be there for the start of the tour. Could you recommend a cheap place to stay? I am not a fussy person. Also I do not eat fish. Will this be a problem for the lunches included?

    • Explore!OperatorWritten February 2024

      We could book you on the first hotel used of this trip, Hotel Klettur which would be an additional CAD $263.00 per single room per night. You would have to look independently if you wanted a different hotel. It's not a problem you would just need to update our portal with any dietary requirements so the tour leader can be aware and cater for you.

    Tony

    Asked on July 20th, 2023

    Are we able to come a day or two before the tour and possibly stay one day after the tour?

    Accommodation
    • Explore!OperatorWritten July 2023

      Yes, we can offer you pre-tour and post-tour accommodation. Pre/post-tour accommodation in Reykjavik - £180 per single and £210 per twin room per night. We can't arrange private transfers I'm afraid. A complementary ones are included if you arrive on the first or last day of the tour.
