We would likely be in Reykjavik a couple of nights before day one, in order to catch up with jet lag so we would need the FLybus transfer from KEF earlier than day 1. Would that be a problem?

That is no worries, you can take the transfer a few days early.

What are the possible hotel accommodations that will be used based on the start date?

We have two levels of accommodation for this tour - the price you enquired for is for standard accommodations: Cabin Hotel - Reykjavik and Hotel Stracta - Hella. If you're interested in upgraded accommodations, you would likely be staying at Hotel Klettur in Reykjavik instead.

What time do I have to be at the airport, and once I arrive does someone pick up from the airport and take me to the hotel?

For the Land of the Northern Lights - 5 Days tour, there are included transfers via Skybus from the airport to your hotel, so you'll be picked up when you arrive. You don't need to arrive a day early, but you can if it's more convenient. Just note that there are no scheduled activities on the first day, so your tour effectively begins the following day.

Could you please provide the pricing details for the evening cruise on Day 4?

Could you let us know if the Katla Cave Tour is available as an additional activity?

Is the tour suitable for an 86-year-old man and a 77-year-old woman who has Parkinson's Disease?

This tour has no maximum age restriction so yes it is suitable for all ages. I would just take into consideration how severe the Parkinsons is? Does it effect movement and will it be difficult for you to walk and move about the tour? Although it is a medium paced easy physical rated tour, a moderate amount of walking is required during sightseeing, with some free time, offering a balance between activity and relaxation. As a general rule, you should be able to walk 2-kilometres without stopping.

Do you have any northern lights packages starting on the first or second

I've had another look through all of our Iceland departures, and unfortunately we don't have any northern lights tours that fit your exact window of 1–6 February. The only option we offer that begins on February 1st is the 8-day Northern Lights & Hidden Gems itinerary, but with your flight home on the 6th, it won't line up.

How do we arrange flight times to Iceland? Also, does a representative from your company meet at the airport and guests to the hotel will be staying at

For this tour we do not have an escort that meats you at the airport as Reykjavik is quite easy to navigate. We include Fly Bus Shuttle that will take you from the airport to your hotel. This service is aligned with every flight that arrives and departs at the airport. When arranging flights you will want to arrive on day 1 of the tour, which usually means departing your state the day before your tour.

what is included in the tour?

Please see below inclusions: 4 breakfasts. Standard: 4 nights in simple hotels (comfort upgrade available to 4 nights in 3 star hotels). Keflavik Airport arrival and departure transfer (FlyBus shuttle). An English-speaking Icelandic guide. Transportation in heated coaches, with free Wi-Fi. Entrance to the Blue Lagoon, with a towel provided. Entrance into the Skogar Folk Museum and Turf Houses. Entrance into the Icelandic Horse Stables and Geothermal Greenhouse. Northern Lights programme: two evenings of lectures, presentations, films, and guided searches for the Northern Lights. Midnight refreshments are also included here. Use of winter and Northern lights explorer equipment: non-slip snow and ice gripper spikes for shoes and a flash light. This equipment is extremely helpful when walking in the dark and taking photographs at night.

Cost for the Montreal to Iceland roundtrip is included here or not?

On The Go Tours do not include international airfare, we have found by leaving this side of the trip up to our amazing clients it gives them much more flexibility and freedom of choice.

What are chances of seeing the northern lights in November

November is a good time to see the Northern Lights in Iceland. It's dark for long stretches, with up to 8 hours of night early in the month, growing to 12+ by the end, which gives you plenty of viewing opportunities. Bottom line: You've got a solid chance in November, especially if you're flexible, patient, and willing to chase clear skies.

This review is based on a number of interactions with the company. booked a tour with them and within 7 days I canceled the booking due to a surgery being scheduled that I have been waiting 18 months for. I paid for package upfront and in full, over £1800. I asked it to be canceled and refunded because I dont know if I woukd recover in time. The surgery is in such a place that I can not walk or hike. On the go tours, is trying to keep £300 of the money as a cancellation fee. It took them over 20 days to refund me some of the money as it has not been paid back in full. Despite thier "terms and conditions" contradicting many areas of the EU consumer act, customer retails act and an number of other consumer laws. I request to speak to a director and its going of 30 days with no response. I would like to know anyone else that has receive such horrible service from the before, on or after thier experience with OnTheGoTours. I am gathering names and accounts in order to prosue my only legal action against the directors themselves ------------------------------------ I have recieved your response and still find this unacceptable. Under EU law, passengers have strong rights to refunds for cancelled travel, typically within 7 to 14 days, with the right to refuse vouchers. Key regulations include EU 261/2004 for air travel and the Package Travel Directive for bundled trips, ensuring cash reimbursement or re-routing options when services are cancelled or significantly delayed. Key EU Travel Refund Regulations: Air Passenger Rights (Regulation 261/2004): If a flight is cancelled or delayed (over 5 hours), passengers can choose between full reimbursement within 7 days or re-routing to their destination. Package Travel Directive (PTD): If a package holiday is cancelled due to unavoidable circumstances (like health crises), travelers have the right to a full refund within 14 days, often via insolvency protection schemes. Rail, Bus, and Coach Regulations: Passengers are entitled to re-routing or a refund within 14 days for significant delays or cancellations. Vouchers vs. Cash: Passengers are not obligated to accept vouchers and can insist on a cash refund. As my reason for canceling was unavoidable health cicumstances and since you have doubled down on your responce and terms on conditions. I shall let those who govern your industry and the relavent governing agencies in the countries you opperate in, know of this interaction and that you are trying to impose terms and conditions that you think makes you above all local and governing laws.Show more

We are sorry to note your continued disappointment. The cancellation referenced relates to our standard booking conditions, which are clearly outlined and accepted at the time of booking. Once a reservation is secured, it is immediately subject to these cancellation conditions. The 14-day cooling-off period applies to the purchase of tangible goods and certain services, but it does not extend to experience-based products such as travel or events, particularly where bookings are made and paid for in advance, and capacity is reserved specifically for the customer. As your booking falls into this category, the statutory cooling-off period does not apply in this instance. This is outlined in consumer protection regulations, which exclude leisure, travel, and experience services provided on a specific date or within a specified period. Our team is available to answer any additional questions, should you require further assistance. - On the Go Tours
