A waterfall tour with a difference! - Not your usual small group waterfalls tour in Iceland: the addition of a visit to a working sheep farm in such an environment added something really different so if you're curious how farmers handle the rugged life there, consider adding this tour to your wish list! The farm has been owned by one family for several generations, being passed down from father to son to grandson over time, and is now being run by the latest young family to have assumed ownership.
They are a charming, hard-working family who speak fairly good English, and talk freely about their life and farm (they also offer tasty, homemade treats!). As you would expect, their small livestock are truly part of their lives: several sheep seem to think they live in the house too :-)
The waterfalls themselves are of course impressive, though they're not like the principal waterfalls elsewhere in Iceland. These falls are in 3 parts as the waters cascade their way down the hillside; the top falls (shown in the picture) are the most impressive and offer a long, sometimes steep and slippery hike up to the top. Or you can just take a mini hike up to any of the intermediate rest stops on the way to the top. The area sits within a long fairly narrow fjord which offers spectacular views along its length when looking back from any part of the waterfalls.
We had a very good, experienced local guide who both drove the small bus and provided a commentary on everything along the way, together with relevant historical aspects of the country. One of the less expensive excursions on offer from Isafjordur and well worth the price.

Attentive, friendly and professional - I would repeat again without a doubt, it was kind, he worried about making stops for us to take pictures, he was telling us everything important in the area. We are certainly right to choose a smaller tour and specifically with them

Absolutely wonderful! - We loved this tour! Had a group of 8 that were joined by another couple so a nice small group. The guide (don't recall getting her name) was wonderful, explained so much to us all along the drive to Dynjandi, we had plenty of time to climb and experience the falls then the farm visit was more than expected.
We were treated to local food/snacks and were able to feed all the goats that seemed to be the families pets, afterwards we were taken out on the farm and were able to feed the goats there as well.
Definitely recommend this tour when visiting Isafjordur!

Tour did not deliver as described - We started off by driving to the Falls with a couple of stops for pictures along the way.
We spent about 50 minutes at the Falls, which was enough time. On the way back, we stopped at a "working farm." This was a huge disappointment. The so-called working farm turned out to be the driver's (company owner) house. There were no cows, three sheep high above on the hillside. We were shown "dirty" down, collected from duck nests, which is sent away to be processed. We saw the family's little garden. This is definitely not a working farm. When booking this tour, we were asked where we would like to be dropped off, and we said the cruise port. At the end of the tour, we were dropped off in town at the company's office and had no choice but to get off the bus. I have mobility issues, and having to walk 15 minutes to the cruise port was not appreciated. The driver literally jumped off the bus before most of the passengers got off. He did not thank the passengers or appreciate us for taking his tour. He was more interested in selling more tickets for his next tour.
I understand English is not the first language, but it was difficult at times to hear or understand. He pointed some things out, but we didn't know if we had to look left or right.
We did not receive the tour as described.
I suggest finding another tour company other than Iceland Hightlights.
