The itinerary that Gummi put together was FANTASTIC! He hit the best experiences/sites for us. Really loved the horseback riding & glacier ice cave tour. So sorry the whale watching trip was canceled due to weather. The food is Iceland was FANTASTIC and I really appreciated his recommendations! He did not disappoint!
We thought this was a once in a lifetime trip but we must come back! Thank you!

Thank you for the kind review Susan!
I'm happy to know you had an awesome time in Iceland!
Ice caves are so cool, literally and figuratively! Working as a glacier guide, and having been to ice caves countless times, I still can't get enough!
I do hope you'll return soon and I'd love to help with planning that return!
Until then, take care!
All the best
Gummi
