Nice laid back adventure - Had an excellent trip with Joey as our tour guide. Stress free and confortable trip, got to experience the south coast in such a short time frame. Too bad we couldnt see the northern lights because it was too cloudy.

South Coast adventures - Overall, we give high marks to Artic Adventures, based on the three different tours we took with them. The guides were each knowledgeable about the area, with each injecting his or her own perspectives into the subject matter. For the 2 day South Coast excursion, specifically, we encountered some inclement weather and hairy road conditions. The Artic Adventures group thoughtfully adjusted the published schedule to accommodate for road conditions. Our guide Lili was a professional throughout the process of maneuvering the weather and assuaging some apprehension about tootling forward during a yellow alert that displayed aggressive wind gusts, rain, snow and icy roads. We were impressed with her attention to detail and thorough communication of the adjustments to the plan. We appreciated her insight into the unique features of Icelandic culture, as well as the geology of the land, all the while being a gracious host to the group. In the end, we survived unscathed and are grateful for the memorable experience.
