Once in a Lifetime Trip

Iceland | Sep 22 - Sep 29, 2023

Eric gave us the perfect adventure! He understood our needs and budget and was able to accommodate everything. He selected memorable excursions - we were able to see whales, dolphins, and seals in the wild; hike among gorgeous waterfalls and dramatic scenery; and we saw the Northern Lights. Our accommodations (at Hotel Odinsve in Reykjavik and Fosshotel Nupar in Kirkjubaejarklauster) were cute and comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the breakfast offering at Hotel Odinsve and the view from our giant window at Fosshotel. We cannot thank Eric and KimKim enough for the fantastic trip. We will certainly look to KimKim in the future for help with more trips and will recommend both Eric and KimKim to all our family and friends.

Thanks a million!
