Hunting the Northern Lights with an exceptional guide - We would like to thank Lorenzo for this incredible excursion. His enthusiasm and knowledge of landscapes made our evening unforgettable. Thanks to him, we were able to move around Thingvellir Park in a way we could never have done alone. We very much appreciated the fact that it explains to us in a simple way the formation of the Northern Lights and the conditions for finding them. Not only were we fortunate enough to see them, but his experience as a professional diver also allowed us to visit sites where faults suggest water of rare clarity. Since we had arrived in Iceland that afternoon, our fatigue forced us to shorten the evening because otherwise we could have seen a waterfall and enjoyed a good hot chocolate that Lorenzo had kindly offered us. We warmly thank him for being this exceptional guide!

Iceland 🇮🇸 Trip - Matti Lis was our guide. He is AMAZING. I cannot imagine taking this tour without him. He is kind, professional, helpful, knowledgeable, and fun. He even served us hot cocoa on the bus.

Out of 10, highly recommended!!!! - The experience with ICELIMO and, especially, with Sergio García has been 10. Sergio treated us wonderfully and showed us Iceland with kindness, passion and professionalism. All this without hurry and taking us to local restaurants and highly recommended. Recommended 100% if you visit the island! Thanks for everything, Sergio!!!

Highly recommended - can’t speak highly enough! - Annie was very friendly and good company. His knowledge of Iceland's history and the island generally is extensive and his curiosity in all things comes across clearly. We were extremely impressed with him and thoroughly enjoyed our time spent with him. Highly recommended.we did a 4-hour private tour of Reykjavik.

Oh what a night - Seeing the Aurora Borealis can be tricky but we hit it on a night so clear you could see into the space for ever. The northern lights came out and stayed on for 2 hrs a the most spectacular show ever. I must say you need to dress in layers and it's still cold. The pick up at the hotel was right on time and the ride to the site for observing was easy. We stayed as long as we wanted to and then headed back to our hotel. What an awesome experience and great service.
