“Everything was amazing. Our guide was so awesome and helpful and made us feel at ease, not to mention patiently herding us around like kindergartners getting all 5 of us into our gear. I was the only one wearing a westsuit to everyone else’s dry suit and I was kept pretty warm, except my feet. Going in January we were super lucky to not see too many people (well actually we had the whole place to ourselves, and we even had some sun!) I’m sorry I didn’t get our guides name but she was from Poland and so cool! Thanks! This mermaid really enjoyed herself!”

He also gave us useful tips on local culture and museums to visit the next day. We recommend Gardar as he customizes the discussions to his clients interests, and gives us a peak of local Icelandic living.”
