    The hike, Aaron- our guide and the people met along the way were everything I’d hoped for. It was wonderful. The food was unexpectedly great and I had paid extra for dietary restrictions that were adequately cared for. I came to Iceland specifically for this hike and I was not disappointed. I paid extra money to rent a rain jacket and pants from the company. What I got was a non waterproof rain jacket with a hood that didn’t have a tie. It was useless. The pants were ripped. I had no alternative as I rented them because I thought that the company would provide what I needed for the hike I signed up for. After the first day I was soaked through. That coat did not dry for the entirety of the time I had it. Another hiker was kind enough to give me his extra coat which literally saved me. Had it not been for his kindness, your company providing inadequate gear I paid extra for would have put me in danger. A non waterproof coat that was also broken and of terrible quality could have quickly put me in a very bad situation. It severely dampened (literally) and otherwise fantastic experience.

    Great tour. Despite some very bad unexpected bad weather our guide went above and beyond to ensure we were safe and comfortable. When the weather wasn’t in our favour always had a plan B. Cosy neat accomodation. Lots and lots of delicious food. Definitely won’t go hungry! Beautiful beautiful scenery.

    I spent four days with the hugest grin from ear to ear. This tour was fantastic, our guide was exceptional both guiding the trekking and cooking delicious meals. For anyone worried about doing this tour alone I would say just go for it I was the only one and had the best trip ever!
