The trip was amazing. Gummi was super helpful with our itinerary and notes for each day. We went to his suggested restaurants-all were spot on -our favorite was the first dinner at Nardeyastofa in Stykkishólmur. The drive from Stykkisholmur around the Snaefellsnes Peninsula was spectacular!! The glacier ice cave tour with Southcoast Adventure was terrifying and beautiful and a highlight of our trip. The glacier lagoon, the puffins at Dyrhólaey the waterfalls… we never would have been able to see everything without Gummi as our guide!
