MUST-DO WHILE VISITING THE NORTH!! - It was an amazing experience and we really had a great time kayaking with Tom. The area is charming, with a small quiet town and mountains around it. The views are spectacular, especially when you sit in the kayak, feel the movement of the waves, the sun shining on your face, feel the gentle wind.... Absolute tranquility. I love it!! and hope to return!

A great experience - We had a splendid experience with Laken. Kayaking on the fjord, telling us about the history of Siglofjordur, the herring industry and the shipwrecks in the fjord. She gave us a tip to make a walk to the Kotafoss, near the golfresort. Hans and Ria The Netherlands

Fantastic day for kayaking! - Tom was fantastic! Explained everything. Paddled to the shipwreck, where he told the history of Siglo and herring boon. Tom was cheerful and fun. I needed a little assistance and Tom was happy to help. Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Sigló Sea - highly recommended - My daughter and I booked a private guided kayak tour during a cruise ship visit to Siglufjörður. Tom and Laken were welcoming and knowledgeable; their equipment was top notch. It was easy to find their location and the information Tom shared about the town and its history enhanced our experience. I booked a private tour as I didn't have kayak experience and didn't want to slow down a group, but we probably could have joined a group tour with no problem. But it was nice having Tom to ourselves!

Beautiful kayak trip with local history - We had a lovely time kayaking with Tom in the fjord. He provided dry suits with a much-needed tutorial on how to put them on. They kept us dry and warm as we casually paddled to different sites in the fjord. Tom was a wealth of information about the town and area. I’d highly recommend this tour!
