Unforgettable
Fantastic experience.
The guides (Haffy, especially and also Jóargen) and the driver Gunnmar were exceptional.

Leroy of "Unreal Iceland" is a wonderful guide.
Our 25 year old granddaughter was able to join us for our Solar Eclipse cruise, and we had an amazing day. Leroy, the owner of "Unreal Iceland”, was our guide and driver. Obviously, we are old but Leroy accompanied Emily and showed her where she could see lots of seals and wildlife when walking that far wasn't feasible for my husband and me. He is incredibly personable, knowledgeable and accommodating. We visited Iceland before but this was our first time seeing the Snæfellsnes Peninsula and Leroy made it memorable. We were fortunate to spend time with him, and it was hard to say goodbye.

The Cave Explorer13abigaill, Aug 2026
Fantastic informative tour with a great guide
Fantastic and informative visit deep into the Vidgelmir lava cave. Our guide Joy was an absolutely joy! Very well informed, easy to understand and kept a good pace.
We were lucky and had 6 in our group, others had 15-20.
There is a slightly tight entrance to the cave where you have to duck a little but it's short and easy to do.
We went 700m deep along a wooden walkway. There are multiple staircases but as someone with a knee condition, it was very manageable and not rushed.
Lots of interesting facts along the way about the different 'rooms' with joy pointing out various colours of the rocks and different lava formations.
Fun section at the end where all the lights get switched off and you're in complete darkness for minutes!

Ice tunnel and snowmobiling tour
Had a very good time! Tour guide Ale was fantastic! Kept us all entertained with his great sense of humor! (Give this man a raise!) The ice tunnel was amazing and snowmobiling was a thrill!

Midnight Sun Kayaking Adventure by Mt. Kirkjufellandercovny, Aug 2026
Great experience
Luna and William did a fantastic job. At one point, we just stood still while a seal swam around us about five feet away, it was incredible. Really great group, so glad we went.

Awesome Experience
This was an awesome experience and certainly one of the highlights of our trip! Pickup/drop off in Husafell was very easy and the staff were very helpful and friendly. They provided all the essential gear and we felt very warm and comfortable. Our guide, Adrian, was wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable of the glacier. My husband and I both thought the ice tunnel experience might be a bit too touristy for us, but it was actually a highlight as we learned so much from Adrian during that tour. We were never rushed and in fact were shuttled home privately because our tour lasted a little too long and we missed the larger transfer bus back to Husafell. Highly recommend, worth the money.

Fabulous Kayaking Experience!
This experience was wonderful. We were able to tandem kayak, putting one adult with one child. The guides were awesome, particularly William who was so kind to our youngest. Would highly recommend this experience!

Excellent Private Tour Experience!
We had a fantastic experience with Unreal Iceland. Our guide, Baldvin, was very helpful, informative, and fit the tour to our interests and needs. We couldn’t have asked for a better day out touring the Snaefellsness area!

Snowmobiling from HusafellLilbritches, Aug 2026
snowmobiling on Langjökull glacier with Simply Iceland!
Our family of four (teen boys - 19, 15) really enjoyed snowmobiling on Langjökull glacier with Simply Iceland! Our guides were Haukur and Eva, each of whom were very kind and knowledgeable. After meeting at Hotel Husafell, we were driven to the glacier in the big white mercedes mini bus. The snowmobiles were at the glacier waiting for us. After a brief safety talk, we were set loose on the glacier, following behind Eva. We felt completely safe throughout the day. The scenery was breathtaking. Snowmobiling a glacier was a magical experience and something that we are so glad to have experienced. We highly recommend Simply Iceland, a small, family-owned and operated business with outstanding customer service and attention to detail. As a matter of fact, the groups are always under 16 or 17, but on the day we went, our family of four were the only ones booked (!). Unexpected private tour! Do not hesitate to choose Simply Iceland. You will not regret it!
