Our tour guide, Sami, was knowledgable, friendly and passionate about the trip and his country as a whole. It was a small group, which gave the trip a nice feel. Everything ran on time and there were plenty of stops for toilet breaks and refreshments. We ended with the glacier, which was a nice touch. Take care on the beach - the waves are incredibly dangerous and come up the beach very quickly. They can easily catch you out. Would thoroughly recommend the trip.”
