Amazing Snorkeling Experience in Silfra! - My snorkeling adventure at Silfra was nothing short of breathtaking, and it was made even better by having Fernando as our guide. From start to finish, Fernando was absolutely fantastic. His knowledge of the area and the history of Silfra added so much depth to the experience. He explained everything clearly, making us feel comfortable and excited even before we got into the water. Once we were in the water, it was like entering another world. The crystal-clear visibility and vibrant colors of the Silfra fissure were beyond anything I could have imagined. Fernando guided us through the best spots, ensuring we didn’t miss any of the amazing sights. He was attentive, patient, and genuinely passionate about what he does, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Fernando also took the time to ensure everyone in the group was having a great time, offering tips and encouragement along the way. His enthusiasm was contagious, and it was clear that he wanted each of us to have the best experience possible. I can’t recommend this experience enough, and if you’re lucky enough to get Fernando as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable adventure! !

Incredible experience. Highly recommend - Great experience. Our guide, Oli, was super informational and patient with our novice family. Dry suits were the way to go. Our group had some small leakage in feet and hands but did not detract from the experience at all. Highly recommended the experience and the company running the excursion.

Great snorkel at Silfra - Dori was an amazing guide. She was fun, knowledgeable, abd approachable. We saw a really cool fish that is apparently very rare and Dori filmed it and shared this with us. I am a fairly experienced free diver and Dori had no issues with me enjoying trying to dive deep! (Hard in a 7mm wetsuit without waits!) Thanks Dori! Would so this again!

Highly recommend for unique Iceland experience - We had an amazing experience with Adventure Vikings and Dory during our silfra snorkeling activity! We were given plenty of gear to be warm and comfortable and learned interesting facts about the fissure. Communication in advance was clear and helpful.

Amazing - Great and unique experience. Everyone can do it. The water is cold but they provide with professional suits that keep you warm. The photos are amazing, strongly recommend to take this options. You wear big gloves which make it impossible to have a camera and take pictures on your own.
