Organized and well run excursion to Godafoss

5.00This excursion delivered as promised. Arrival and check in instructions were clear, staff assisted us to the correct bus out of a sea of buses, our driver and our guide Manuel were helpful and got us to the waterfall and back in good time. Additional commentary on the bus provided interesting information. The drink and Icelandic pastry with access to a clean restroom were appreciated. Several drop off options permitted us to explore the city after the excursion to Godafoss. Overall exactly as expected and a good value.
Poor service.

3.00Bus was terrible. AC did not work. It was 100% heat and everyone was very hot on the bus. Bus driver could not figure how to cut off heat and turn on the air conditioning. We were all miserable. Saga Travel is not a good tour travel to book. Viator should look for alternative tour excursion company.
Perfect Excursion

5.00Really well organised. Found the provider (Saga Travel) straight away after getting off the ship. Got taken to the bus. Guide (Michael) was brilliant. Told you lots of info. Godafoss Waterfall was definitely worth the visit and the drink and Icelandic treat were lovely! Bus driver gave you option of dropping you off at 3 different locations on the return journey which was great. Thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend.
Good trip

5.00We really enjoyed the tour to the beautiful Godaffos Waterfall. The tour guide, Hilmar, was excellent and very funny. We loved all his stories. I can’t remember the driver’s name, but she was from Spain and she was very helpful and answered all our questions. Both were very friendly. Highly recommended!
Quick tour to a great water fall

5.00This was a great tour. We were on a cruise ship and they pick you up right outside. The waterfall has a little restaurant right there so you can go get coffee or tea when you are done.
