Professional courtesy was wonderful - We were very sad, we missed this wonderful trip, since our ship hit bad weather & we were late arriving in port. But the tour operator was kind enough to give us a refund, since it was No fault of ours. Sincerely appreciated his professionalism & courtesy. Would definitely recommend this trip ,since this was going to be our second time, doing the trip. We will definitely do it again, when we come back. Thanks

An Adventure at the South-coast of Iceland - We were picked up near our apartment by Adonis (our tour guide) in an off-road truck. He was very kind and told us ALOT about Iceland and its history and answered all of our questions.
We were a family of 4 and there were also 2 other people with us in the truck.
Everyone came along well and we had a great time. Adonis also had a nice playlist for us with Icelandic songs.
On our tour we visited 2 Waterfalls, the Katla-Icecave and also the black beach. He told us many facts about animals, glaciers, history and also Icelandic mythology.
In general we really enjoyed this trip and were very happy about having Adonis as our tour guide.
We would recommend a tour with GravelTravel and in particular with Adonis.

Must do in Reykjavik - Our driver/guide “Snyper” was wonderful! He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the entire excursion. This is a newer company so we were lucky to have been on the tour ourselves. It turned out being a private tour which really capped off our Iceland experience. We were the only ones in the GlacierIce Cave which was totally awesome. He also made additional stops which was not on the itinerary which made us feel like VIPs. Cruise port pickup was timely. The vehicle was very comfortable. Food/Toilet breaks very convenient.

Best way to visit the ice cave - We spent an excellent day with Roggi, our informative tour guide, who expounded on items of interest as we sped down the highway to Vik in a luxurious 4WD. The visit to the ice cave in the glacier was a highlight. On the way back, we stopped at some spectacular waterfalls and the black sand beach.

Ice cave - 4x4 Mercedes bus was nice. But.... no wifi and USB ports were USB D?? Everyone has USB C so no one could charge phones.
Ice cave was a long walk through up to.knee deep snow. Cold and windy
Cave was only about 40ft. Deep. Not what you see in brochure. Was definitely an experience, but not what the brochure implies. Black Beach was nice. You have very short time 20-30 min max at each spot. Not enough time to get a meal
