Top Vik Overnight Tours

We booked this tour through Arctic Adventures and had to meet near Hella as we were staying close to there. Siggi and his wife Linda were exceptional guides and very friendly and helpful. They took us to places you could only dream about. Our first stop was a pretty canyon and waterfall. You had to be a bit agile to make it to the hidden cave area but with a little help from Siggi my wife was able to make it. Our next stop was a short walk to the base of a huge glacier where the overflow reaches the valley floor. The 2010 eruption actually occurred under that glacier. A big part of the plume was steam from the melting ice. The flow of water from that event also flooded a small lagoon that existed at the base of the glacier and destroyed the one wall. That lagoon fully drained and doesn’t exist today. While we were there the ice cracked somewhere up the ice flow and made a loud booming sound like thunder. Our next stop was the volcano huts. This is a remote base camp for hikers and anyone exploring the Icelandic highlands. We took a trail that took us from the Langidalur campsite to the next camp, Thorsmork. We enjoyed a hot meal there as part of the tour. We got back in the bus and headed to the Stakkkholtsgja canyon. This hidden canyon is a 2km round trip. The footing is treacherous as it’s a layer of rocks between fist and head size and there are several stream crossings. At the end is a waterfall deep in the rocks which is truly spectacular. We highly recommend booking this tour.

We had a great time on the tour. Our guide Jagoda shared lots of info on Iceland, including thoughts about food and snacks. She also made adjustments to planned stops, so that we could see certain sites at the best times and made some bonus stops along the way to take in the scenery. I liked that she seemed to enjoyed seeing all the sites herself, even though it was probably the hundredth time she has been there. The transportation was roomy enough, with 10 people in a vehicle with around 16 seats in the back, although the empty seats were mostly stacked with bags.The Glacier hike and boat tour on the Glacier Lagoon were definitely the highlights. On the Glacier hike, I really like how she made sure everyone was properly equipped and also using the equipment properly.Regarding pickup, given the big window of 30-40 min, I'd recommend letting people know in advance how many stops there will be that morning and where they are in the order. Even better, it would be great if text updates could be given (e.g., pickup one done, on my way to number 2). We were the last ones to be picked up, so we were wondering at the end whether we were forgotten.

I had a really fun time with this tour. Our guide, Rodrigo was great from the get go! My pick up location had a lot of people waiting so I was worried I would miss my bus, but he was able to find me in the crowd. Throughout the ride be was VERY informative and fun to be around. He also gave us a lot of recommendations on what foods to try. Overall had a great experience. Highly recommend this tour!

We packed in 5 days of adventures and sights and this was our favorite experience, hands down. Our driver was friendly and informative while managing the rough terrain well. He encouraged us to sit up front and enjoy the gorgeous natural beauty. We were dropped off at the base in Langeidalur and hiked to the top (strenuous/steep but manageable for my husband and I - both 62). It is well worth it when you are treated to the vast breathtaking views. We hiked down and enjoyed a coffee in the Volcano huts while waiting for the bus to take us back. There is also light food available and the vibe is relaxed and accommodating.

Porsmork super jeep adventure was an awesome experience. Very comfortable 4x4 super jeep, incredible scenery, short walk to glacier where we witnessed two rock slides, easy optional uphill hike to amazing views, walk to canyons and caves, explore black beach with small boat wreck, delicious lunch of soup options and dessert. Best of all was our guide Baddi who was very knowledgeable, funny, friendly, open hearted and entertaining. Thank you for an amazing day.

Knowledgeable tour guide. Learned so much about Iceland. Gorgeous weather. Great lunch. Definitely worth the trip....adventure of a lifetime

The tour was fabulous! Iceland is beautiful and our tour took us to several spectacular places. Unfortunately the guide was a little rough around the edges and due to a tight timeline was forced to rush the tour members.

We booked this trip to experience South East Iceland and did not want to drive. The activities were great our guide Inky was fabulous. The big problem was, we were picked up 2 hours late since their guide called in sick, so did not get to see all the sights and ran late all day and into the next day.

We loved both our tours with David the Guide. They are local guides that are very knowledgeable and also funny! We even had a mishap with our hotel room, and our guide handled it for us and got it figured out. Can’t recommend enough.

Our guide, Agnes, was so so lovely and my family and I all had a great time! She was very accommodating, knowledgeable about the places she took us to, and genuinely made the whole experience super fun and enjoyable :) Would definitely recommend!

Thanks our tour guide - Sebastian. Although the weather was not great, but you made our trip! Lots of funny stories and information were provided! Thank you.

The tour was a great experience. Agnes, our guide and driver, was super nice. She was very knowledgeable and provided lots of interesting information, adapting the tour to the weather, adding on additional stops to make for time and made sure that we made the most of all the planned stops. The duration was satisfactory for the sightseeing stops and activities. Really enjoyable tour and would choose the same operator again.

These super jeep trips are amazing!These guys brought us to the vulcano huts (we were the only two guest at that moment, low season) and the jeep tour was great. Beautiful landscape and very friendly en flexibel drivers!Thank you so much for this adventurous experience.

Excellent tour in a Super Jeep, amazing scenery, wonderful hike with breath taking views, great food and fantastic guide!
