Trip was easy to plan with Guðmundur. Beautiful scenery and great guides. Crystal Caves with Siggi was particularly good- one of 4 tour companies that can drive on the glacier provided the best possible experience. The accommodations were all very comfortable, safe, clean, warm and ideally situated for the purpose of our trip, which was seeing the Northern Lights (which we did)

Hotel Reviews
Panorama Glass Lodge West Iceland

Really special experience. Maybe a little tight, but a great spot to see the northern lights, and even if it's cloudy you can hang out in the hot tub or sauna. Easy to get food nearby, truly private lodges, absolutely wonderful.

Truly excellent. We watched groups struggle on the glacier dealing with the wind and cold- we only had fun. Siggi is one of 4 companies that can drive on the glacier and that made this an incredible expereince. Loved getting into the ice. So pretty.

Siggi was so interesting and knowledgeable- we learned more about Iceland from him than any other source
