Fantastic trip! - GO WITH TROLL!!! After pondering a trip to Iceland for many years, I finally took the plunge and I’m so glad I did. Even more so because I chose Troll Expeditions to lead the way. For the first time visitor, Iceland can be overwhelming. It has an endless amount of beautiful scenery and attractions, and with so much to see it would be a challenge to coordinate a quality visit on your own. Having all the travel, site visits and expeditions, and lodging managed by someone else meant I could relax and focus on the insane beauty of this wild place. Our small group was expertly led by our guide, Rocky, who kept us organized, informed and happy. Highlights of the trip included, Kirkjufell, black sand beaches, Vok Baths, and seeing the northern lights. Along the way Rocky sprinkled all of these activities with Icelandic history and enchanting folk tales, many about Iceland’s beloved Trolls. If you’re thinking of a trip to Iceland, don’t wait, go now, and make sure you go with Troll!

Amazing trip! - 这次旅行绝对是一次非常精彩的体验!衷心感谢我们的导游John,他带我们度过了十分美好的八天时间!John不仅幽默友好,他在行程中分享了丰富的地理知识,在晚上还特意留意极光的出现。他还向我们推荐了许多当地特色美食,我们也在他的帮助下找到了心心念念的鲨鱼肉(味道确实很独特哈哈哈)。我们的同伴也都非常友好,大家互相帮忙拍照,分享美好时刻。冰岛的自然景观壮丽,并且我们能够在七天内四次看到北极光,真的让人感到非常幸运。虽然气候寒冷,但这真的是一次的美好旅行! This trip was definitely a fantastic experience! I wholeheartedly thank our guide John, whose professionalism and enthusiasm made our eight-day itinerary extraordinarily wonderful! John is not only humorous and friendly, but he also shared a wealth of geographical knowledge during the journey and kept an eye out for the Northern Lights in the evenings. He recommended many local specialties to us, and with his help, we even found the shark meat we had been eager to try (which indeed has a very unique taste, haha). Our companions were also very friendly; everyone helped each other take photos and shared beautiful moments. Iceland's natural landscapes are magnificent, and being able to see the Northern Lights four times in seven days really made us feel incredibly fortunate. Despite the cold weather, this was truly a wonderful trip!

An unforgettable trip to Iceland - Before graduation, it was really unforgettable to have such a wonderful trip with my classmates. Accustomed to the bustling and monotonous cities, this 8-day trip to Iceland really gave me great feelings and different experiences. Waterfalls, canyons, northern lights... All kinds of beauty that can't be seen at ordinary times; Horseback riding, glacier trekking, cave exploration... The activities are an exciting experience. At the same time, our dear tour guide John, with his enthusiasm and rich knowledge, taught us a lot of geographical knowledge and Icelandic culture during the trip, and also helped me integrate into the group and have a good experience since I was not good at English communication. I am really grateful to him! Of course, in the process of travel can also experience Iceland's special food, including but not limited to shark meat, taste well... I look forward to seeing you for yourself. What is the point of travel? It's about experiencing things you wouldn't normally experience, seeing things you wouldn't normally see, meeting some interesting souls and making valuable memories. This 8-day trip to Iceland has really achieved these things. Thanks to John and every member of the tour group for their tolerance and enthusiasm, I think I will return to Iceland in the summer in the future to see different scenery.

Excellent - If you have limited time and are reluctant to self drive, then doing a small group tour around Iceland makes sense. All the stress of travelling is removed and you know you will see the best of Iceland. Troll clearly has excellent guides, and our guide was awesome. Rocky’s cool and calm demeanour and genuine personal connection with all of us was obvious. Despite our trip being affected by a 2 day blizzard, Rocky calmly changed plans and kept our journey on schedule as much as was possible. Iceland is incredible. Troll tours are very well organised and well thought out. Rocky was excellent in every respect. We left feeling like we were saying goodbye to an old friend. Highly recommended!

An amazing time in a magical country! - The country is stunning, so dramatic and magical, made even more so by our amazing guide Rocky. Despite the weather attempting to derail our plans, we saw the Northern Lights, beaches, glaciers, waterfalls (so many waterfalls!), hot springs and more. Our guide took time to show us little, less known gems along the main route, shared loads of local knowledge and folklore, and as a result we saw trolls and reindeer and even an Arctic fox on our travels! Please visit this country at least once, spend at least 8 days touring outside Reykjavik, and if you're lucky enough to get Rocky then you're going to have the BEST time.

Incredible Iceland - We really enjoyed our tour with John. His love of Iceland was infectious- he is so knowledgeable about Iceland’s history, geography, geology and people. John managed to keep the tour running smoothly while still being fun and spontaneous. Thankyou so much for an unforgettable experience!

Good trip - great guide - This is a great way to see almost all of Iceland. Johann - our driver and tour guide was great and the tour offered great value. All activities were great and well planned. One should take advantage of the optional activity offerings as well. However, the 19 person bus was fully occupied, and there was no room in the bus for day packs, requiring one to ride the whole trip with a day pack on one's lap. In addition, the seats are narrow and the pitch is tight so if one is large or tall be prepared for a tight ride. Hotel accommodations were spartan for the most part with one room having no central heat. If you take this tour, do not sign up for luggage storage unless you must. We paid in advance for the storage which was never stored and no refund for the service was provided. Regarding clothes and shoes - if you go in the winter take warm clothes (layers) - I'm a skier and I wish I had brought even warmer clothes and be prepared for icy walks so good winter shoes with cleats would be advisable.
