You have to do this! - This was my favorite experience so far in Iceland — a must-do if you can manage! The drysuit is cumbersome, but it’s very buoyant and easy to swim in. You’ll have to be a bit patient with getting set up, but it’s well worth it! The fissure looks exactly like the pictures. Mickey was the best, and I loved our girl group. A lot of reviews mention the water temperature: Brace for the worst, but I promise it’s really not that bad. The tour drew a great mix of solo travelers, as well. Our bus for pickup was running a little late as some people were no-shows, but it sounded like the company was very communicative with the impacted passengers, and the snorkeling timing still worked out really well.

Unreal snorkeling experience you won’t find anywhere else - This was an unreal snorkeling experience. I’ve snorkeled in some beautiful parts of the world, Australia and Mexico but this was something else. To see how deep it is and see all the way to the bottom and how clear the water is was unreal. We also loved how bright green the algae is, it’s just gorgeous. Our guide was Francesca and she was wonderful!

Freezing water is gorgeous - Mickey was friendly, informative, and a great guide. Very much enjoyed the fissure. The water is freezing but you get used to it really quick with the gear they provide.

Amazing experience!!! - Francesco was the guide for our group of 6. He was a really good guide! Clearly explained everything, made sure our suits were all properly fitted and took brilliant photos of us all! I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, it will be an experience I’ll remember forever! Absolutely loved it. Bus transfer from Reykjavik was on time and very efficient. Would recommend this company to friends and family

Spactacular Views - The water was cold. But the views were spectacular! A must do activity if you are in Iceland. No where else in the world can you get these kinds of views. The guides were awesome! Great job Carol.

Guide Marcello a real treasure on this incredible experience - Efficient garbing (thermal bodysuit + wetsuit + accoutrements) of large numbers of people signed up for the same experience. Additional clarity around that process may have improved the processing and understanding of what we should be doing. Marcello the guide was spectacular! His knowledge of the area, all things water and landscape while helping us get dressed and into the water was very reassuring. He led us through the fissure, took pictures and did it gracefully and professionally.
