      Highly recommend this tour. Sage travel was easily located in the Akureyri port and left right on time. Rúnar was our tour guide and he was excellent. His knowledge and passion for Iceland were supremely evident, and I can’t rave enough about how excellent he was. There wasn’t a lunch provided but the tour made a stop right on our route at a grocery/convenience store. At godafoss, Saga travel had an arrangement with the Hotel right next to the waterfall that let us get some free coffee and Icelandic pastries as well as use a restroom with zero line/ cost, which was very cool. Of the three tours we’ve done in Iceland so far, all with different companies, this one was the best.

      Awesome tour/Awesome guide-driver

      Wendy_J, Aug 2025
      This tour was by far the best one we took while in Iceland. Our Guide/driver Elsa, was not only knowledgeable & informative but so sweet & kind. She accompanied us at each stop but gave us leeway to adventure out on our own too. She was also an excellent driver & not only told us about the history & significance of each stop but since she grew up in Akureyri she knows all the local stories too! I highly recommend her & this tour!

      Great guide to Godafoss & greenery!

      Perfectly timed stops with an excellent guide. Peter was personally interesting while keeping us on schedule and informed on all things Iceland! Everything was well coordinated, and the stop for complementary coffee, pastry and the clean bathroom stop at the small hotel at Godafoss was a nice bonus. Great scenic tour and a wonderful guide.

      The waterfall was awesome! Just the right amount of time to explore it. The crater was otherworldly. There wasn’t enough time to walk the rim.

      These falls are a must see. The lava fields and different formations were exactly what we expected.
