We were very pleased with the entire trip. The itinerary worked out just perfectly. The pre-booked activities were excellent, especially the zodiac ride, glacier hike and the Sky Lagoon. Duncan’s suggestions for hikes and points of interest were very helpful; we did many of them. The accommodations were very good with the exception of Heradsskolinn Guest House.

So very glad that we booked with Duncan and Kimkim and would recommend the company to others.

Worst accommodations on our trip. Restaurant was overwhelmed and food poor. No shower in room, tub only. Made us remove our shoes at the door. Staff was over whelmed and confused.

Hi Robert, thanks so much, I appreciate your positive review, and am really happy things worked out well for you. It's very useful to hear which aspects of your trip were highlights, and it would be equally useful if you could share your experience at the Heradsskolinn Guest House so that we could learn for the future.
