      No refund and paid for nothing

      Well, my experience sucked simply because the tent was empty. Nobody was there and I never got a refund. I requested a refund. It’s been a week and I still haven’t gotten one so I guess I’ll just leave a negative review up here until it happens.

      Wonderful Kayaking at the Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon

      Good experience despite bad weather. The staffs were nice and we got free chocolate wafer after the trip

      You can’t miss this!

      Absolutely beautiful way to see the glacier! Guide was very knowledgeable and made my family feel safe!

      Fog at the lagoon

      Urs_D, Jul 2025
      Because of much fog and permanent rain, we could not paddle as normal for safety reasons, many motorboattours are on the laggoon too. So we often stopped to have a very long look at the ice in the lagoon. We didn't even see the end of the glacier. So put on many layers of clothes if you have the same weather conditions. On a bright day it must be a highlight.

      Lots of people want to do it, because it’s cool

      Very unique experience - more touristy than I wish it was, but it is what it is. That is all I wish to say but it’s making me put more text due to a limit.
