Best Iceland trip with family! - Very happy with the entire process from contacting Shei at the office and the communication with her to finally come up with a great itinerary. Our person tour guide Vjeran was beyond excellent in his knowledge, patience, cheerfulness and his overall style of guiding. Frimman took us on the bus for Aurora viewing and we loved the way he taught us about the Northern Lights and we were very impressed with his ability to assess the energy, the source, the direction and the intensity based on his experience. And he showed us the most spectacular and dazzling aurora in the right spot at the right time. Arctic Adventures is the main reason for a successful, enjoyable and comfortable trip to Iceland.

I am so glad to meet Troll and the best Sigga!! - I’m very glad that I chose Troll Travel for my six-day trip to Iceland, and I feel so lucky to have had an amazing guide, Sigga! We had a wonderful six days together, and the memories from this trip are truly unforgettable. Every place we visited was breathtakingly beautiful, and I captured so many great photos. Sigga was the bond that kept our group so united—she was the bridge that brought us all together. The restaurants and dishes she recommended were absolutely delicious. I even recommended Sigga on social media platforms in my country, such as Xiaohongshu, encouraging those traveling to Iceland to choose Troll and the best guide, Sigga! Huge applause and cheers for Sigga!

If you are looking for winter getaway, then Iceland is a must visit! - My husband I were recently on the 6 Day Around Iceland Adventure tour with Arctic Adventures. This was our little getaway to ride out a busy and eventful 2024. We always wanted to see Iceland in the winters and it is an understatement to say that the place is truly mesmerizing. The scenery kept aside which speaks for itself, our trip was made very special by our tour guide Vjeran who was extremely fun and very knowledgeable. We almost missed the first day of our trip due to flight cancellation and by the time we reached, the tour had already started. The staff at Arctic Adventures were extremely cooperative and guided us so we could catch up with the group midway. We got to know from our lovely tour mates that Vjeran was constantly following up about our movements. He was extremely accommodative and ensured that we were picked up mid way so we could join the rest of the tour on Day 1 and we are grateful that he did, as this was truly a trip of a lifetime. With Vjeran's exceptional knowledge of the history, the folklore, all the fun local stories and amazing recommendations for restaurants and fun activities along the way (not to forget his expert driving skills which got us around Iceland in a windy and chilly Iceland winter feeling extremely safe and secure), this was indeed the perfect way to end 2024. With a packed itinerary and a different hotel everyday (all of them welcoming and cozy and in some truly remote and mesmerizing locations), our tour group (nicknamed "team wonderful" by Vjeran) trotted along circling the entire country. Sharing some pics from our massive collection. What a sight that was!

Memorable tour in Iceland - It was very amazing experience with knowledgeable tour guide that we learned a lot of iceland and heard funny stories. Also, the course of a tour was so satisfying since the nature was so beautiful. And accommodation was decent. However, the only one disappointing thing from this tour is we didn't do a whale tour and we have to afford most of the high price food in iceland. Although, overall the tour was nice.

Must do trip - Right around Iceland in winter was such a treat. The dark days delivered secrets and spectacles that will stay with me forever. The bus was warm, the accommodation was beautifully diverse, from comfortable hotels to unique farm stays. All added to the feeling that we were really seeing what life in Iceland is like. Along side the spectacular scenery, our guide Vjeran was an addition that absolutely made our trip. He was passionate about the country, provided us, with stories of trolls and elves, alongside facts and details. Recommendations of not only where, but what to eat, made us feel like we were getting some special secret insights. From the first pick up to the final drop off he had us laughing and learning the whole way. His energy and enthusiasm is endless. This is a must do trip.

Experience Iceland - Amazing time around Iceland, I really feel like we’ve seen all the best the country has to offer and it didn’t feel rushed at any point. We were very lucky with the weather which you can never control but we got to see the northern lights and stratospheric clouds which was cool. Highlights were certainly the golden circle and Godafoss waterfall as well as the ice cave and super jeep riding. Iceland is stunning in the winter and even in early January you get enough light from 10-5 each day so it does not feel rushed. Our guide was very informative and I liked learning more about the country, history and people. You never spend more than 1 hour on the bus without a scenic stop somewhere. All the accomodation was comfortable and warm. Breakfasts every morning were filling and a mix of traditional hot English and icelandic foods.

A beautiful, snow filled 6 days - What an experience and a half! We had the best 6 days in Iceland with our amazing driver and guide, Didi (Sigurdur Magnusson). He is such an informative and knowledgeable person and a wonderful leader who shared his own personal connections with many areas in Iceland. Didi was really helpful and gave excellent advice and made our trip in Iceland such a memorable one. I loved the tour and seeing all kinds of different things all over the beautiful country. Thankyou SO much!

Wonderful!!! - Wonderful travel companions, wonderful guide Vjeran. It was a small group tour, so there were 16 of us. We traveled with our 15-year-old and 11-year-old great nephew and niece and their parents, and everyone had a good time!! Vjeran was such a phenomenal guide; he was kind, funny, and patient, and he managed to rescue my phone when I lost it on the ice cave excursion. I am so glad he was doing the driving, as we all felt totally safe. I absolutely recommend this tour for families, and if you can, request to get Vjeran as your tour guide!!
