Hotel Budir -- Outstanding! - One of the most interesting (in a great way) hotels I've ever stayed in. Remote, but restaurant is excellent (food and service) with a great full breakfast. And remote is good if you're aurora hunting! We each had roomy suites with outstanding views -- clean and comfortable. There was a little construction going on, but never noisy, dusty or in the way. Very relaxing and well-stocked bar area with mountain and ocean views. Hotel Budir is a must if you're touring the Snaefellesnes peninsula (and you should!).

Beautiful area - Aurnie showed us some special spots on this beautiful peninsula. The attraction is the beauty of the scenery. Rock formation, the coastline, black beach and the extinct caldera were highlights. Great tour

Must see! - Loved this tour! Got to see many cool places; our guide Kuba clearly loves the region and runs a tight ship to make sure we get to see as much as possible. Can't get over the incredible cliffs and how the region really has its own climate. Bring good snow boots!

West Coast scenery - We took 3 day tours while here in Iceland and this was our favorite...our tour guide Thora was awesome!!! This tour included lots of stops that are not as famous or commercialized as some of our other tours but the scenery of the west coast took our breaths away!!! Highly recommended!!!

Great tour - This is a very organized tour. Our tour guide is very knowledgeable. The tour takes about 11 hours but we enjoyed the trip for the whole time and did not feel tired at all.

Another amazing part of Iceland - Got to see yellow sand beaches, pebble beach and Arrowhead mountain. As well we saw several other sights like the lighthouse and black church. Our guide shared interesting stories about the area as we drove through the peninsula. A good day of seeing another part of Iceland.🇮🇸

Small group Iceland excursion - Normally I wouldn’t book a coach trip but as I had onto a few days to experience this wonderful country I thought that the best way would be to use a local company for their knowledge and to see as many places as possible in the short time there. I wasn’t disappointed in what I saw but what is frustrating is that you are on someone else’s schedule and didn’t spent long enough time in some places and too long in others imo. The coach driver was friendly but wasn’t very talkative and I think we did miss out on some of that local knowledge. Despite this I would recommend a small coach/ party instead of a large one. Yes it’s costly but you aren’t navigating 59 other people and only a group of 17/18.

Gonna be great if not heavy now - First of all thank you our guide that waiting us at the beginning of the day. We missed out meeting point because I didn’t notice message that sent a day before trip to pick up at bus stop instead of hotel that was chosen in Viator app. It will be better if inform us in advance since we booked. And weather was not that good since snowy cloudy sky, we couldn’t see Kirkjufell hiding under mass cloudy and at this stop guide didn’t come down from a van to lead us. The rest was good he skip the crater because of safety and led us to the safe place to visit.

Some parts were beautiful but it was the coldest I’ve ever been in my life! - The beach where we got out was extremely cold and there was a rather dangerous trek to the bottom due to the snow and ice. But the overcast snowy gloominess was very beautiful and made for some perfect photos. The tour, honestly, probably should have been canceled and refunded because the snow was so bad we couldn’t even see many of the sights we were supposed to see. The tour guide seemed knowledgeable but he kind of started the tour on a sour note because he was complaining about some of the tour participants who were confused about where they were to be picked up so we just had to wait a few minutes for them. Out of 4 tours we did this week we also had some confusion on pickup locations on 3 of them so I could relate.
