We had the most wonderful trip to Iceland planned by Gummi! It was fast paced, and we saw so much of the beautiful country. He thought of everything including driving directions and restaurant recommendations. It could not have been a better trip!

Good location and plenty of space. A little loud, but that is because you are so close to everything!

A good place to spend the night. We had a private apartment, which god us out of some of the craziness. It seemed like a very busy hotel with lots of people coming and going. It was a good spot for one night after a long day.

Our two bedroom in my room was very clean and right in the middle of town. The heated bathroom floors were an added plus.

This was a fun introduction into what a lava cave was. Our tour guide was wonderful and we learned a lot. Definitely worth going to see.

One Hour Rib Safari Trip
One Hour Rib Safari Trip
Westman Islands

This was one of our favorite activities we did throughout the week! The tour guide was so fun and the driver played the best music. Being able to get on the water around the islands was perfect. The suits that they gave you kept us extra warm and dry. I would 100% recommend doing this.

Glacier Ice Cave Experience

We really enjoyed this experience. It was neat to be able to see a glacier from the inside. I will say that it was more physically challenging than I expected, but I would recommend this to anyone.

Riding in a boat in a lagoon surrounded by icebergs that just came off a glacier is a once in a lifetime experience. We also were able to see Harbour seals that were incredible. I know that I will never do anything like this again and I am so happy that my family had this experience. It was truly incredible!

This was a very fun one hour activity before we had dinner and Vik. Our host was so knowledgeable and we learned a lot about volcanoes and what happens before and after an eruption.
