Thanks to our guide for the fantastic excursion!

What an incredible experience we had today, with our guide Michael. More than just a tour, but a sharing experience from our guide that has shared is love and knowledge of the volcanic reality here near Reykjavik. One of our best excursion we had since we are in Iceland.

Amazing Volcano 🌋 trip in Iceland

Amazing tour and definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Iceland! A huge thank you to our guide, VJERAN. He was fantastic - super friendly, funny, and really paid attention to the group. Everything was well organized from start to finish. The weather wasn’t the best that day, but he did everything he could to show us the best possible spots given the conditions. He even added an extra viewpoint and showed us the houses affected by the eruption, which made the experience even more interesting. The tour itself is great. It’s incredible to walk through places where lava was flowing just a couple of years ago. Considering how expensive Iceland is, I think this tour is excellent value for money. The pickup was perfectly on time, and everything ran smoothly. Highly recommended!

5 STAR Volcano Hike With Vjeran

5 STAR Volcano hike with Vjeran. Vjeran was entertaining and also very knowledgeable regarding recent volcanic activity, geologic history of Iceland and adventure tourism. We didn’t have perfect weather on the day of our hike but Vjeran had no problems adjusting to the conditions and giving everyone in our tour the best experience. I would 100% go on a hiking tour of Iceland with Vjeran. #teambeautiful

Additional information

The route we take can change for safety reasons. Update August 9th: The flow of new lava at Litli-Hrutur has stopped, at least for the time being. The area is still smoldering and is fascinating to visit.
