This tour was incredible! We had amazing weather as well which just added to the experience. Our guide, Simion, was fantastic! Very knowledgeable and made sure everyone was comfortable as well as providing an experience for the more adventurous ones. Don’t think, just book these to access some amazing areas!
We spent the day Simion and had an incredible tour. He was a great driver and very informative about the area and all of the sites . He was helpful and kept everyone safe when making crossings to see the waterfall . We would highly recommend. We would also recommend bringing all the gear including waterproof shoes .
We joined the Þórsmörk Hiking Day Tour with our guide, Valdi. Besides our family, only two other guests were on the tour, making it feel very personal. Valdi shared fascinating stories about Iceland as he expertly drove through rivers and rugged terrain. The hike itself was incredible, taking us to stunning viewpoints and a hidden canyon that felt like a secret corner of Iceland. This was our favorite days of the trip.
This was absolutely fabulous! Our guide, Jon Gisli, was wonderful. We took our college grad son and the super jeep tour was the highlight.
Fantastic tour!! Guide was amazing, and Thorsmork was simply breathtaking. Don’t miss the hike up to valahukur!
We (2 adults and 2 kids) had such a great time on the tour! The scenery was breathtaking, the hikes were a highlight, and Sven was a fantastic guide - friendly, knowledgeable, and full of great insights. Thank you, Sven and the Midgard team!
This was an absolutely amazing tour. Odie drove us through rivers to places we would never have seen otherwise. We hiked to breathtaking viewpoints and stunning scenery, as well as fascinating caves. Along the way, he also provided interesting geological information and anecdotes. I highly recommend this tour. Definitely 5 stars!
It was an experience and Simeon was a nice guide. There were ten of us. You're really fine in the truck. That we wanted a lunch was not quite right but that could still be arranged and paid for on the spot. We drove through rough terrain. made several stops. Walked a long way up, walked through a gorge with a beautiful cave with waterfall as a reward. I found this trip a valuable addition to our holiday. For dessert we also drove a bit on the beach.
This was a fantastic trip with our guide Carlos. Not only did he choose excellent hikes but also he explained all the geological features around us , including all the rocks we found on the trail and to top it off he taught us some Icelandic. Highy recommended!
Our Thorsmork Super Jeep tour was a highlight of our trip. Carlos was a great guide. We loved the different stops and the opportunity to hike and explore such beautiful and varied terrain. Highly reccommend!
