I have a few questions about this tour. I'm planning on traveling with 2 other friends. We will all be booking separately. Is it possible to request in advanced for the shared accommodations to stay with my friend Gabi even if we are booking separately? My next question is for the meeting point on Sunday at 9am do you know yet where it will be? We are planning on arriving in Iceland at 6am that day. I was also wondering on the first day for the option of the geothermal baths if the tour price includes this or is there extra fees for this?

1 it would be possible for us to leave a note for the operational team, so you will be accommodated in the same room as your friends. After all the bookings are done, please reach out to us with names and/or reference numbers for your friends' names. 2 You can choose a pick-up location that works the best for you. We have a designated list of locations where we pick-customers up for the tours. 3 Visit to nature baths are not included in the price of the ticket. The visit can be added for a fee of 7400 ISK. It is also not included in the 'Adventure package'. The reason is that Myvatn is not operated by us.

How do I make a payment for my booking?

Payments can be made through the Arctic Adventures website or authorized platforms as directed in your booking confirmation.

Are meals included in the tour package?

Specific meals are included, but some meals may be at your own expense. Please check your itinerary for detailed meal information.

Are flights included in the tour price?

Flight tickets are not included. You will need to arrange your own flights to and from Reykjavik.

Do you see the Strokkur geyser on the 4 Day - Northern Lights,Snæfellsnes & Glacier Lagoon tour?

The 4-Day Northern Lights, Snæfellsnes & Glacier Lagoon tour does not include a visit to Strokkur Geyser.

Is there a single supplement option available?

A single supplement is available for an additional charge if you prefer a private room.

What kind of travel support is available during the tour?

Support includes assistance with insurance matters and on-tour issues. Emergency contact numbers are provided in your travel documents.

What are the available pick-up and drop-off points in Reykjavik?

You can choose from various authorized pick-up locations in Reykjavik. The complete list of locations is available on the Arctic Adventures website.

Can you share the names of the hotels that the trip will be staying at? Also, will there be a meeting place for this tour or will you pick them up at their hotel?

All the hotels we book provide private bathrooms and a strong 3-star rating, like Adventure Hotel Hellisandur, Hotel Island Spa & Wellness, and Adventure Hotel Hof. A more detailed itinerary will be provided 14 days before the tour departure. The bus will pick guests up from authorized pick-up points only.

Is there a way to print out the itineraries for both of these tours?

In fact we were absolutely satisfied with our experience. Way better than we imagined, such overwhelming beautiful landscapes and attractions. The guides were informative and always helpful. Even the one who took us to the ice cave, unique. Arctic Tours is very organized, always on time, good hotels also. And we were also lucky to see the northern lights. An experience worth suggesting to others.Show more

The actual experience of visiting places in Iceland was fantastic; see details below. But dealing with Tour Radar was a nightmare. They don’t include the night before the tour begins (at 9am, so you have to have a hotel that night); and they don’t include the hotel n the last night ( which ends at 7pm). I was emailing them for over 2 weeks to try to get the information I needed to book those hotels; i.e. where we were meeting and being dropped off. Insane. Other information was also missing. 1. The glacier “hike” was not what we expected; it involves walking on the glacier along a rugged path with several dangerous areas; the guides were professional and helpful, but we should have been given more complete information. Many of us felt worried in some areas; one person backed out; another was injured. It’s a spectacular experience, but even one of the guides agreed that it is not an easy level of difficulty. 2. The night we spent in a Vik, a lovely area, there was only dinner at the hotel, not included in the tour price; no inexpensive options. We should have been told that ahead of time so we had the option of buying food at one of the stops along the way. One person skipped dinner. Iceland is glorious - I will tell everyone I know to visit, but book your en tours, directly through one of the 3 companies, then take care of hotels yourself. It will save you a lot of aggravation and frustration. I almost gave up on the trip because Tour Radar was so difficult. I especially recommend the Snaefellsness peninsula, the Karuma spa, Pingvellir National Park (Golden Circle), any waterfall you can visit, and the South Coast tour. Bring rain gear. It’s often misty, sometimes actually raining.Show more

Small tour group, well organized, lots of great/unforgettable experiences. In the first two days, the guide was a bit difficult to understand over the microphone. In the second half the guide always gave us good information/instructions (even without a microphone). Accommodation between the 1& 2 and 3 & 4 days was great. The hotel for the night between 3-4 days was hostel-like (room without windows????).Show more

I have a few questions about this tour. I'm planning on traveling with 2 other friends. We will all be booking separately. Is it possible to request in advanced for the shared accommodations to stay with my friend Gabi even if we are booking separately? My next question is for the meeting point on Sunday at 9am do you know yet where it will be? We are planning on arriving in Iceland at 6am that day.

  Is the Krauma geothermal baths the same thing as what you mentioned?
- Arctic AdventuresOperator•Written October 2025
  This tour used to include a visit of Krauma geothermal baths as an optional extra for an additional fee. However, it is no longer available due to external reasons, and it seems that the tour description hasn't been adjusted to reflect the change. Unfortunately, this means that a nature baths visit is not in the itinerary. However, our more adventurous customers can add an optional guided tour that will offer a chance to step into the 8,000-year-old Vatnshellir Cave and feel closer to the core of the Earth!
