Intrepid Travel commented on this reviewHi Tina, it is so wonderful to read of your experience in Iceland with a group of international explorers! We are delighted to know that you had an amazing time in Iceland and we hope to see you again soon. Stay well.Trip date: August 2024 - AAnonymous· August 3rd, 2024Took the premium Iceland trip with intrepid and felt we were really ripped off. The premium trip was almost $3000 a person more than the Discover trip and only included one extra day. The hotels were not wonderful and the meals were only fair. There was no choices on the meals and they didn’t even include coffee or tea, they also did not include the transportation back to the airport at the end of the trip. Have traveled with six other companies and this was disgraceful.Show moreTrip date: July 2024

Steve· July 16th, 2022This was an amazing once in a lifetime trip. Truly fantastic. The small group size meant we got a lot of personalized attention, we got to see a lot of extra sites, and we stayed safe from Covid exposure. Our guide was pleasant, knowledgeable and fantastic to be around; just a great guy. I think everyone else on the tour was a repeat Intrepid/TourRadar customer. If you can, I’d book one day extra in Reykjavík at both the beginning and end of the tour.Show moreIntrepid Travel commented on this reviewHi Steve - Thank you for your kind review.

- Soyoung· July 18th, 2021I only had two days of private bathroom out of whole time ( one shower didn’t drained, unable to finish shower)! Very low quality rooms! It was hostel room basically! Iceland itself is beautiful but accommodation was horrible, I have never have been treated like this low quality! I have been through Tourradar before. I will never go through this again! We are not a back packers group!!! We stayed hostel most of times! It is your job to get private bathrooms attached to rooms! All of us been horrified about accommodations! But let me make clear that Our guid Einor was professional and kind guid! He did best he could help us out! It’s the your company put us like dirty rooms!Show moreIntrepid Travel commented on this reviewHi So Young! We're sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the accommodation on your trip. We do endeavor to be as transparent as possible in our Trip Notes, which mention that private, en-suite bathrooms may not be available on this itinerary.... Show moreTrip date: July 2021
- TBTiffany· October 17th, 2019Incredible trip! Shame the itinerary is changing for 2020 as it’s cutting out my 2 favorite stays on the trip. Still..I’m not a tour person at all. I prefer off the beaten path, flexibility for unexpected adventures, etc. but Jónas provided all of this. He was the best!!!! As a avid single, female, I’ve realized done a lot of solo travel but there are many places I’d like to go that aren’t the best choice for a single, solo, female traveler. However, now that I’ve found f Intrepid Tours, the doors have opened and I am already looking at where to go next.Show moreTrip date: September 2019

Asked on May 13th, 2025Could you provide us with information on the Iceland Discovery 8 day tours that are available after September 10, 2025. 1. What size are the group's? 2. What time do things generally start in the morning and wrap up at the end of the day? 3. Is there a bathroom on the bus, or how are bathroom breaks managed? (Ie we we have no special health issues, are 68 and 70 respectively and reasonably good physical shape for our ages) 4. Do you try to group people based on age?, or if not, would there be tours with groups that are made up of people mainly age 60 and over?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written May 2025
This tour runs with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 12 passengers, so it offers a nice small-group experience. Daily activities usually begin after breakfast, typically before 9:00 AM, and wrap up in the late afternoon or early evening, around 5:00 to 7:00 PM, depending on that day's itinerary. We travel in our own private minibus, which allows us to visit more off-the-beaten-path destinations and provides flexibility. All our vehicles include complimentary Wi-Fi, and bathroom breaks can be arranged on the go with the help of your tour leader. While we don't group travellers by age, we do pair up shared rooms based on gender.
