5.00This was our first time kayaking and we were very excited about it and it turned into the most amazing experience and memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime. The views of Kirkjufell at sunset were absolutely breathtaking, and the clouds only added to the cinematic atmosphere making it a truly splendid experience A huge thank you to William, who stayed with me the entire time. When I struggled at the start, he kindly hooked my kayak to his and kept it that way to make sure I had a calm, enjoyable, and unforgettable experience. I’m so grateful for his patience and help. Greg was fantastic , incredibly knowledgeable and full of fascinating stories about the area, which made the whole adventure even more special. And the hot chocolate and cookies at the end were the perfect finishing touch. Overall, an incredible experience from start to finish. Thank you to both Greg and William for making it truly unforgettable. A massive thank you from Kshitiz and Manisha.

5.00We had an amazing time kayaking under the midnight sun. Greg, Luna, and William were so helpful and informative. They explained information about the area and about Iceland in general. The gear provided kept us really warm and even though we were on the ocean, it felt really safe. A midnight sunset in Iceland from the water is a truly memorable and fabulous experience.

5.00Luna and William led the tour. The two were very nice and helpful. Additionally, they shared many insights and stories. A great team. And there is not much to say about the experience itself. It was simply unbelievably beautiful. I would do it again at any time.

5.00One of a kind experience! Greg and Reda were the absolute most charming and professional guides! They read the room and tailored our experience to the group of 8 people (3 separate groups). They were patient, funny and kind and shared their knowledge of the area and Iceland in general. Do not miss this amazing experience.
