A day full of fascinating and varied experiences. Lots of driving, of course, but with quite a few opportunities to get out and explore on foot. It helped that we struck it lucky with the weather — and with our guide Zaydor, who was charming, engaging, considerate, and very informative. An excellent way to spend a memorable day.

We really enjoyed this trip. Be sure to dress for the weather conditions. We had strong winds and rain but the journey was still amazing and the food was excellent. A pair of rain pants would have been a smart idea. Leroy our guide was excellent and knowledgeable and went above and beyond in helping out. Thank you! Iceland is simply beautiful.

A surprising image of Iceland, a nice sequel to the golden circle. Beautiful waterfalls, views, the mountain from game of thrones, black beaches a beautiful walk along the coast. Finally, a delicious home cooked dinner at Johanna's on the horse farm. All in all under the guidance of Petra enjoyed a beautiful image of Snaefellsnes.
