What people are saying about Northeastern Region, Iceland

Good guidance. Super cool experience. Our children aged 13 and 10 found it very exciting and fun. From Reykjavik it is a 1.5 hour drive to the point where you get special clothing. Then you have to drive another 45 minutes with a special bus to the glacier . Take a travel tablet if you get car sick easily . Enthusiastic guides and very professional.

Great trip. Snowmobiles were easy to handle and fun to drive. The scenery was amazing and the guides were great. The suits, gloves, helmets, etc all were in good shape and did a good job of keeping us warm.

It was a great experience for all of us. Kind and friendly guides, which were well prepared and helpful. I highly recommend this tour. It was so fun and awesome.
