Góðafoss & Mývatn Shore Excursion from Akureyri
Fantastic excursion....
Fantastic excursion. Everything was explained wonderfully and we had a super nice tour guide. Because we were making good time, we even got an extra sightseeing tour through Akureyri 👍👍

Diamond Circle Tour with Waterfalls From Akureyri
Visited early August....
Visited early August. This was the most amazing tour of the four we did in Iceland. Every turn brought mind-blowing and varied scenery. The itinerary was exactly as advertised, plus as we had a small bus, we got to stop at extra viewpoints that had only small parking lots. Joanna was our tour guide and she was wonderful. It was a 9-hour tour and there weren't any restaurants where we were going, so Joanna took us into a grocery store and we bought sandwiches, snacks and drinks. What a fun day!
