    BEST TRIP!!!! Joahann was an amazing guide. Everyday brought new surprises! I was wishing I could go home after 6 days and was surprised when Days 7 and 8 brought a whole new bunch of excitement! So glad it was 8 days - so much to see and do. Highly recommend

    Just finished the 8d tour around Iceland. Was overall a fabulous trip and I would highly recommend it! Thor was absolutely fabulous. He made sure we saw everything including several extra stops which added extra value. Only thing I was not thrilled about was the horseback riding. The horses and people were fabulous. but would be better if we had more freedom to actually ride the horses and not just walk in a line on a trail. Iceland is a great country and people were all friendly.

    The trip leaders on both sections of the tour were well informed and took us to everything we had expected to see. Especially on the 3 day tour section, he was able to flex the trip based on weather expectations to show us the best that could be seen given the weather at the time. The pace of the trip was exhausting (12-14 hour days), but totally worth it

    Kristin

    Asked on October 8th, 2024

    Looking at flights that lands at about 6 am in Kef. Would just have carry-on luggages and head straight to Reykjavik. Wondering if that would be enough time to make it for the start of the tour.

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • Troll ExpeditionsOperatorWritten October 2024

      If arriving early in the morning on the same day when your tour is meant to start, we could leave a note on the booking for the driver to know that you will arrive in town a bit later than 8am, and set you as the last client to be picked up. The latest time we can wait for you is 8.30. It takes around 1 hour for the airport shuttle bus to get to Reykjavik, without traffic; we strongly suggest you to take a taxi to Bus Hostel.

    Debbie

    Asked on August 9th, 2024

    Any chance one person could slip into the Oct 13-17th trip. I already have a plane ticket that arrives early on the 13th and departs early evening on 18th. I'm very active and want to see and do a lot in that time. Really trying to avoid an older group hop on/off bus kind of tour.
