All North Iceland Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 2

The tour guide was wonderful, provided lots of good information and local color. The waterfall was beautiful. The pickup from the cruise terminal was flawless. There was internet on the bus. Afterwards they offered dropoffs at the botanic gardens or near the city center before returning to the cruise terminal. This was a great afternoon excursion!

This trip was brilliant and the amount of geothermal things we saw and the scenery was stunning. We had Dabba as our local guide and she drove the minibus. Dabba is from Akureyi and she gave us so much interesting and useful information, it was brilliant! Dabba also gave us a little tour of parts of Akureyi on route which was lovely to see. We did this tour which picked us up and dropped us back to our cruise ship. We saw the pseudocraters, lava fields of Dimmuborgir, Hverir geothermal area with its bubbling mud pools, steaming fumaroles and a landscape like the moon was amazing. The strong smell of sulphur is not very nice! We also went to Godafoss waterfall that was beautiful with its glacial water. It was lovely that a stop at a cafe in Godafoss for coffee and a treat was included in the tour and a welcome break. We felt the trip was well worth the money and experience. It would have been good to have had a little bit longer in each place but knew timings had to be strict as we all had to get back to our cruise ship.

Godafoss is a beautiful waterfall (wish we'd had more time here). The Lava formations were striking, and it was fun to learn about the Yule Lads and sit in their cave. The lake and old craters were interesting, and going to the mud pots was cool to see. *Make sure to have the mosquito head net when going to see the lake / craters. And, run across the street for the ice cream.
