GBI received word that Dana was no longer… I received word that Dana was no longer working The new person said the fire &ice tour I was confirmed in July was cancelled Upon checking I found two earlier ones were full. The replacement lady kept pushing for me to take a tour with snow mobiles it cost more and was 5 days instead of 3 I have not heard anything since.

GBIceland alone is stunning Iceland alone is stunning. What made this trip (aside from going with my bestie) was the tour guide, Karl. The way he time managed the weather, excursions, etc...was incredible. He made sure we got the whole experience and was very laid back the entire time. Even in some anxiety driven situations. Buy the plane ticket, travel, but definitely ask for Karl :)

GBIceland is an amazing place, still in awe! Iceland is an amazing place! We went thinking the trip would be a failure if we didn’t see the Northern Lights. We did see the Lights but Iceland had so much more to offer. Around every corner was another photo opportunity. The small group tour was much better than anything the big bus tour could provide. We could go place, fit into spots, and make friends, that the big busses can’t. Our guide, Kurt, was a wealth of information. He, like all of us, is still in awe of the magic that is Iceland.

GBBEST TRIP EVER! This was by far the best vacation EVER!!! While Iceland itself is an amazing destination, IcelandX made it easy to navigate, got us to far off places and took care of us every minute of the day. Our guide was extremely friendly and personable, knew all the places to go, took us to destinations that were perfect for our group. IcelandX was able to cater the trip to our own personal likes. We spoke for weeks leading up to the trip so they were able to plan/personalize it for us. Even as the week went on, they were able to change the agenda based on our daily needs and desires so that all of us went home knowing we each had the best trip of our lives! As soon as we got our luggage, there was someone ready to pick us up and take us away to the lagoon to rinse off the stress, dreariness of plane travel so we were instantly relaxed and ready to begin our adventure! Our mantra from hour one was ‘BEST TRIP EVER!!’ Also, we now feel that the best way to start any trip is to go from the airport directly to a spa/lagoon!

GBAwesome 4x4 Experience! So does the X in IcelandX stand for eXtreme or eXcellent? We think it’s both. Our “Great 4x4 Expedition” far exceeded our expectations. We loved our guide Jon— a very personable, knowledgeable native Icelander who took great care of us - he went above and beyond to be sure we were enjoying our trip and had everything we needed. Jon actually loaned us his personal tripod and helped me with exposure settings. The places we were able to go because of the 4WD brought us up close and personal to off-the-beaten-track geologic wonders of Iceland without the crowds. From waterfalls to glaciers to moss covered lava fields to geysers and fumaroles, we were amazed by it all. We got weary of saying spectacular. The hotels were upscale - Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon is rated 4 stars - as were the restaurants. We had many delicious meals with an opportunity to try fresh fresh fish and local Icelandic foods— we are now hooked on Skyr. We are sorting through the kazillion photos we took and wishing we were still there. Bravo IcelandX and Jon!
