- Janice· December 2nd, 2024Had a wonderful time, Christoph our guide was wonderful with his stories and Iceland history. The Icelandic weather played with our emotions when it came to seeing the norther lights but thankfully we got to see them on our last night there. This is a place I plan on visiting again.Show moreTrip date: November 2024
- Murali Krishna· April 28th, 2024Overall a nice tour. Arctic Adventures 3-day tour was very good with an outstanding guide. Not sure why you call this a 5-day tour, when it is just a 3.5 day tour. The last day Magical Auroras Tour was cancelled. Will you be refunding the amount for this tour?Show moreTrip date: April 2024

Asked on January 7th, 2025Could you please let me know how many stars the hotels usually have? Additionally, could you provide an example of a hotel that is typically booked? I'd like to look it up online to get a better idea.
- Arctic AdventuresOperator•Written January 2025
When booking with Arctic Adventures, you are guaranteed an accommodation at a nice country hotel and/or a guesthouse. The hotels we have partnered up with are all of the same standard and offer nice rooms with made-up beds and private bathrooms. The standard room is a twin room but it's possible to request a double room or a triple room, with no extra charge. If you are traveling solo, you will have to add the single room fee if you wish to have a single room. All hotels have free Wi-Fi. Towels, a hairdryer and a kettle are accessible at all of the hotels. Hotel breakfast is included!

Traveler•Written January 2025I was trying to make the booking and I saw that it's possible to rent a jacket and pants. I will be travelling with my father and he's interested in renting these items. Is the price mentioned of 17 Euros for the whole duration of the tour (from 09.03 to 13.03) or just for specific days/activities? Also, are all the size available?
- Arctic AdventuresOperator•Written January 2025
Yes it is possible to rent waterproof jackets and pants. The sizes we have are european unisex S to XL. You can add them in the booking process or later. Rented items are for the whole duration of the tour.

Asked on January 2nd, 2025Is there a way to get to the Blue Lagoon? Is it possible to rent a car for a day? Is it possible to stay for an additional night? And we would like to do some additional experiences, like ride a dog sled. How can we find out about additional excursions?
- Arctic AdventuresOperator•Written January 2025
We do not offer Blue Lagoon tour, but you can contact them directly to book a tour. It is possible to rent a car at a car rental services. You would be able to add aditional nights for your stay, but you also would need to contact the hotel directly.

Heather
Asked on September 17th, 2024Can you let us know about the travel times between different locations and whether it is by car or van. How many people in the tour. Do you recommend any changes (if possible) with two kids (12 & 14).
- Arctic AdventuresOperator•Written September 2024
The tour travels by minibus, accommodating up to 18 people. With two children (ages 12 and 14), the itinerary is family-friendly, though I suggest packing items to keep them entertained during longer drives. The tour offers breaks for sightseeing and relaxation, which should help manage the journey comfortably.

Heather
Traveler•Written September 2024Can you please let me know the travel times by minivan on each day separately? How do you compare this tour with the 5 Day - Snaefellsnes, South Coast and Northern Lights tour?

For both 5-day tours we drive on average around 300 km (186 miles) per day on our multi-day tours. You will be spending approximately 4-5 hours in the car each day. We do of course stop on multiple locations throughout the tour for sightseeing, activities, bathroom breaks and lunch stops.

Asked on September 6th, 2024Need some help with the prices. So my clients are 2 families. 1 family has 3 adults +1 child of 7 years and the other family are 2 adults with 2 kids aged 4 and 10 years. What will be the total cost? I tried to fill in the details but the child field only allows for kids from Age 8-15. How to find the cost of kids aged 4 and 7.

Unfortunately, there is a minimum age requirement of 8 years old for this tour, and, unfortunately, we cannot make any exceptions in this regard.
