Amazing experience at Silfra - Snorkeling in Silfra was an incredible experience — the water was unbelievably clear and the scenery was stunning. It’s such a unique feeling to be between two continents. Our guide, Adrian, was very friendly and helpful, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Iceland!

Best time of stay - Great experience. The underwater landscapes are beautiful. The guide, Jampy took care of us very well and accompanied us well and advised us. Thank you very much! The small hot chocolate with the cake does good at the exit of the water. I recommend.

Magical snorkelling - A totally amazing experience. Really magical. Sara was friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to make sure our kids were okay in the water - she even poured some warm water into his gloves to help his cold finger! We would totally recommend.

Would recommend - Really enjoyed our tour with Francesa! Francesa was energetic and fun and really made the experience! We were nervous about the temperature, but the wetsuit keeps you nice and warm. Only your hands and fingers get cold.

Snorkeling Silfra Fissure - Was such an amazing and cool experience! The entire team was very helpful with getting our suits on and fitting them to us. Our guide was Nico, and he was very knowledgeable and made the whole thing fun and rememberable time for us all! And he takes great pictures! At the end we got cocoa and a cookie and it was the perfect little snack afterwards.(: I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to try something different while in Iceland!

An unmissable must - An unforgettable experience, being swimming between two tectonic plates was a must for me, and it was a great experience, we passed suits that allowed us to float and insulated from the cold, only the mouth felt very icy but it is part of the experience, after the activity we were waited with something warm and cookies. The pictures were very good!

Absolutely fantastic experience. - What an absolutely fantastic experience. Our guide, Jenny was wonderful! I was a little nervous about feeling claustrophobic in the dry suit but she talked me through every step and, actually, I was fine 🙂 She explained everything really well and was really cheerful and friendly & made us all feel welcome. The snorkeling is really easy - no waves - and the visibility was amazing! Jenny took lots of pics which we could view later that day and the hot chocolate at the end was very welcome. I would definitely recommend this company 10/10.
