  The country is unbelievable and this is a fantastic and efficient way to see the sights. Our guide Olaf really knew his facts, was polite and patient with the group. He's also got a great sense of humour. The family could not be more impressed with the entire experience. Andersen family.

  Johan Paulsson was an excellent guide. He was very flexible with our iterinaries. He was very mindful of our wishes and desire to see the aurora borealis, which we did. We couldn't have gone to these places if we probably drove on our own. The tour was paced very well. We never felt rushed. We were in the group of 16 people from US, CANADA, HONGKONG, SINGAPORE and at the end of our tour, we all become like a family. I would recommend this ring road tour to anybody that would like to see the beautiful country of Iceland.

  The tour was well paced with intermittent stops breaking up the driving time. The time spent at each sight was appropriate given the distance that needed to be travelled each day. Holly did a great job anticipating the changeable weather conditions, altering the tour activities accordingly and navigating the tricky road conditions. She provided interesting information, facts and figures about the sights and the country constantly during the 6 days. Holly worked to give us the best chance possible of seeing the Northern Lights - recommended apps to download, personally monitored the sky and messaged all with updates, explained the conditions required to see the lights to monitor expectations. She was personable, patient and inclusive of all, taking the time to ensure everyone (18 people) was comfortable and enjoying themselves. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and rate Holly highly as a tour guide.

  Overall a good tour of Iceland that took in all the major sights of Iceland. Our guide was worked hard to please everyone on the tour. I was not pleased with the bus that was used. Seats were cramped & not suitable for the long drives. It was also not suitable for the number of travelers with everyone requiring to take turns sitting in extremely uncomfortable back seat with no views or leg room. Accommodation was alwsrs clean & comfortable.

  It was a marvelous vacation & tour! Jonas was one of the best guides we've ever had. He has a great personality, was considerate and always concerned about the welfare of all of the travelers. The days flew by quickly as Jonas taught us about Iceland, its people, mythology and culture. The van was comfortable and a great way to see the country. We would definitely travel again with Artic Adventures based on this experience!

  I had the best time and the tour was a great way to get a snapshot of Iceland in the 6 days. The guide was amazing and his passion for his Island helped to make the trip exciting and to show the real Iceland and its people, not just the selfies and the insta-fame. We were never sitting too long, the food recommendations were great, accommodation was comfortable and the destinations jaw dropping. I would recommend the tour to anyone! The only fault is that i now feel i have to come back as you cant see and do everything in 6 days!! Iceland is extraordinary and the tour was fantastic!

  I felt the tour, as promised, covered a lot of ground. I wish, however, that we could've spent a little more time at certain spots, as I did feel a bit rushed. I am a smaller sized person, and felt the bus's seats, aisles and ability to even stow a backpack under the seat was really cramped, so it made the ingress and egress a bit more problematical. The larger people were really struggling. "Biggi", as he had us call him, was absolutely a delight, and did his very best to keep us entertained and informed and showed much patience with dealing with us all. A few of the accommodations were a bit stark, but the breakfast buffets were all lovely, and with enough variation to make them not boring. I knew it would be a busy tour, as we had lots of ground to cover. Iceland is a lovely country and I would recommend this tour.
