Utterly awesome - What a fantastic experience. Yes, it was very cold and windy but it is Iceland after all! Getting into the kit was easy except for the gloves. You had to put wet, quite tight gloves onto hands that were already so cold, they didn’t really work properly :D. Once we were kitted out, we walked a short way to steps down into the water but not before Weronika (our lovely, informative, super caring guide) took photos. Then into the water which was amazing. The dry suits were very buoyant so we all just bobbed nicely along. Weronika took some more under water pics before we set off. The clarity of the water was unbelievable. Crystal clear. It was truly awesome.

Not as cold as you'd think! - Incredible experience snorkelling through the crystal clear glacier water, the visibility was unlike anything I've ever seen. The water is far too cold to swim in normally so you get all the kit and advice to stay warm, including fleecy undersuit with a dry suit on top, only your face exposed to the elements but very easy to stay warm. Our guide Fede was super friendly and helpful, and told us the history of the fissures we were swimming in. An amazing experience and a must-do if you're visiting Iceland.

Silfra Fissure: Cold but Unique! - This might be one of the most unique things we have ever done! The water is crystal clear, and it's amazing to be drifting between two continents. The air and water are cold, but you are kept dry by a multi-layer wetsuit. The added bonus is that the fissure is located inside Thingvellir National Park that has a tremendous amount of cultural significance for Iceland and natural beauty. We got a chance to see iridescent clouds prior to entering the water. Arctic adventures does a great job picking you up in convenient areas in Reykjavik close to your hotel/hostel and making sure that you get a sense of the history of Iceland during your tours. We had Vjeran as our guide for two excursions, and his passion for Iceland was contagious! I highlight recommend this excursion as well as working with Arctic Adventures for any excursions while in Iceland.

Federicka rules! - Fantastic time with the tour guide Federicka. Super kind and supported the group members, meeting them at their perspective experience. Highly recommended!

Amazing place to scuba or snorkel. Attention to safety was excellent. - This experience although expensive for a 1 dive day was definitely worth it to scuba dive / snorkel one of the top 5 dive sites in the world. Booked via an agent for Artic Adventures. So in hindsight it may pay to look around / book directly. Also, I needed a bus stop 1 pick up and there wasn’t an option to do this on this booking site, but it can obviously be done Our guides for the day were DM Dominica and Krisztian. Both fabulous at sizing you up and making the dive fun, safe and enjoyable. It was excellent to see the attention to safety as there was top cover, O2 and an emergency kit bought to the waters edge. Unfortunately my suit had a big leak so although I was warm enough… I was cold after 35 mins. However, they had a warm van for changing in and plenty of hot chocolate and biscuits post dive. Had I known in advance both the divers and snorkelers almost do the same route my partner would have come with me for a snorkel. The dive is not stunning in the Red Sea / tropical category of vibrant life n colour but diving through the cracked fissures of the earth is incredible and we saw 1 large trout. Visibility was gin clear from filtered glacial waters and must have been at least 40m. Facility wise there are toilets. No changing room and no snack van so come prepared. Would recommend as they seemed to pay good attention to safety and quality of experience. Dominica and Kristezen were both excellent and worked well together.

Superb diving at Silfra! - I can't say enough about how great Arctic Adventures were. Mino our guide was awesome - very experienced, incredibly funny, and he looked after us so well. We felt very safe the entire time, and he was patient with us during what was our first real dive ever (having just qualified). The dive itself was stunning - super clear, and very interesting from a technical standpoint. Would 100% recommend Mino and Arctic Adventures to anyone. We've done other trips with them and they've never been short of excellent. Without a doubt - 5 stars. Chris and Caitlin

Amazing once in a lifetime experience - It was a great experience being able to snorkel in Silfra. Our guide Dominica was patient, helpful and made sure everyone was looked after.

Frozen Adventures In Silfra Fissure - Awesome afternoon with Arctic Adventures while snorkelling at the Silfra Fissure. All credit to Naieve who was our guide and taught us all about the area and showed us the ropes. Thankfully it was not as cold as we thought it would be, as the dry suits kept us nice and toasty. Thanks again!

PRICELESS - This was our first visit to Iceland and the team from Artic adventures didn’t let us down. From the first meeting to prep for two days of diving to being able to change on the fly due to weather conditions. This team had us dialed in. For four days our group was immersed in the history and culture of the island. Look no further and give the team at Artic Adventures a try. Before I forget their names; Gunn, Nick, Mattia and Byron. Can’t forget my dive guide Nino at Silfra. Thank you for my first visit being an enjoyable one. Btw, give a shot out to Kevin if you happen to run into him:)

Under the freezing water and horseback on the cliffs — every moment was incredible!! - I participated in a two-part adventure tour — snorkeling at Silfra followed by trail riding in Mosfelladalur. Martin was my transport driver, and he was extremely friendly. For snorkeling, my incredible guide Alizee, made swimming in nearly frozen water an absolute pleasure! The underwater canyon is completely breathtaking, and I felt both adventurous and relaxed. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Iceland. After snorkeling, Martin took me to the horse farm where I met my companion for the afternoon Stórstjarna, which means “Superstar”. This was no ordinary horse, he had personality in spades! I’m absolutely convinced the best way to see the Icelandic landscape is on horseback. The team at the ranch was absolutely stellar, and you could tell that they truly enjoy what they do. You only live once, so I joined the “experienced” riders even though it’s been years since I’ve been on a horse. No regrets! Speeding along the cliffs with breathtaking scenery in every direction…just exhilarating! I highly recommend Arctic Adventures. Everyone was so genuine and lovely, the experiences were out-of-this-world, and the convenience was exceptional.
