Unforgettable experience in Akureiri - The tour was perfect. Pick up at punctual time. Guide Agust, the best I've ever met. He explained everything patiently, and very kind to the whole group. Star Travel and Agust, 100% recommended. Thank you for an unforgettable experience in Akureiri.

So much to see - August was our tour guide and he was a genuinely nice guy who went out of his way to give us good information and to take care of our needs. We saw so many sites including waterfalls, volcanic formations, and many other things. He was easy to understand and we can’t say enough good things about him. Don’t miss this tour.

Beautiful family trip from the cruise ship to Lake Myvatn and Godafoss - We were in Akureyri on a cruise ship in June 2024 and wanted to take our 10-month-old baby on a shore excursion to see the region. Unfortunately, it was not easy to find a provider who was willing to take a baby. In the end, we chose Star Travel because they signaled to us quite easily here that this would be possible and you could also provide a suitable child seat. In the morning our guide Rúnar picked us up on time directly at the ship with a minibus. The group consisted of only 6 people and the matching baby seat for our little one was already on the bus. Rúnar has proven to be a great guide as he has repeatedly told us a lot of interesting and regional information with his friendly, relaxed and easy-going nature. We could see a lot of the beautiful and interesting scenery around Lake Myvatn with the tour and of course experience the great waterfall Godafoss. The day was also totally uncomplicated and stress-free for us as a family with a baby. In the end we were back on time at the ship without having to worry about the all abord time. Many thanks to our great guide Rúrar for an unforgettable day in Iceland. We can recommend Star Travel without reservation!

Wrong itinerary - The driver seemed to have the wrong itinerary as when we arrived at Myvatyn we were told that we had a 1/2 hour for lunch then after go to see a farm. When we said no we are supposed to have a 1-1/2 hour nature bath. The driver said then no lunch & no farm. We all agreed to exclude the lunch & farm. Have no idea why the driver had the wrong info. We then incurred a $50 admission fee instead of $5 which my granddaughter and I were both told on a mutual phone call. Currently trying to work these problems out with Star Travel.
