- DMDoris· October 2nd, 2024In fact we were absolutely satisfied with our experience. Way better than we imagined, such overwhelming beautiful landscapes and attractions. The guides were informative and always helpful. Even the one who took us to the ice cave, unique. Arctic Tours is very organized, always on time, good hotels also. And we were also lucky to see the northern lights. An experience worth suggesting to others.Show moreTrip date: September 2024
- Beth· August 6th, 2024The actual experience of visiting places in Iceland was fantastic; see details below. But dealing with Tour Radar was a nightmare. They don’t include the night before the tour begins (at 9am, so you have to have a hotel that night); and they don’t include the hotel n the last night ( which ends at 7pm). I was emailing them for over 2 weeks to try to get the information I needed to book those hotels; i.e. where we were meeting and being dropped off. Insane. Other information was also missing. 1. The glacier “hike” was not what we expected; it involves walking on the glacier along a rugged path with several dangerous areas; the guides were professional and helpful, but we should have been given more complete information. Many of us felt worried in some areas; one person backed out; another was injured. It’s a spectacular experience, but even one of the guides agreed that it is not an easy level of difficulty. 2. The night we spent in a Vik, a lovely area, there was only dinner at the hotel, not included in the tour price; no inexpensive options. We should have been told that ahead of time so we had the option of buying food at one of the stops along the way. One person skipped dinner. Iceland is glorious - I will tell everyone I know to visit, but book your en tours, directly through one of the 3 companies, then take care of hotels yourself. It will save you a lot of aggravation and frustration. I almost gave up on the trip because Tour Radar was so difficult. I especially recommend the Snaefellsness peninsula, the Karuma spa, Pingvellir National Park (Golden Circle), any waterfall you can visit, and the South Coast tour. Bring rain gear. It’s often misty, sometimes actually raining.Show moreTrip date: August 2024

- Shoko· March 1st, 2024Great tour, short but hit all the places that were on the initinery and the pick up from the hotel was very swift and easy. The guides for the 2 trips were friendly. I love how Mahlia (or Maria?) added her personal touch and stories to the pitch on the bus. I had a great trip in Iceland and want to come back again in different seasons.Show moreTrip date: February 2024

- BSBeate· January 10th, 2024Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishSmall tour group, well organized, lots of great/unforgettable experiences. In the first two days, the guide was a bit difficult to understand over the microphone. In the second half the guide always gave us good information/instructions (even without a microphone). Accommodation between the 1& 2 and 3 & 4 days was great. The hotel for the night between 3-4 days was hostel-like (room without windows????).Show moreArctic Adventures commented on this reviewDear Beate, Thanks a lot for taking the time to provide us with your feedback.

- MWMartin· November 3rd, 2022The staff was super professional, helpful and funny too. The trip to the ice cave was quite challenging for two of our group, as we had to walk approx. 3km to the cave through rough terrain from the parking lot. We needed longer than planned, so we missed the amphibian boat tour through the lagoon.Show moreArctic Adventures commented on this reviewDear Martin, Thanks a lot for taking the time to share your feedback.
