Traveler reviews
Exhilarating hike! What a great experience!
Great experience! We had the best weather - a beautiful sunny day, about 10C, with a light wind. Still needed our jacket and hat though. The climb up was challenging at times as was the climb down due to rolling lava rock, and wind gusts but doable if you took your time. Our guide, Ottar, was amazing. Pleasant, informative, easy to talk to, and helpful. What we appreciated was the fact that during each leg of the hike, Ottar would come back to the back of the group and make sure everyone was doing ok. Hiking boots were a must. Also visited Grindavik, two hot springs, saw bubbling pots of mud, beautiful rock formations/cliffs along the coast. A long 10 hr day but lots to see and do and we loved it! Worth the cost. One of our favourite excursions of our trip!
Great experience in the volcano hiking trip!
Good experience! Guide VJERAN is really nice, strongly recommend for this trip!

This Iceland volcano tour was absolutely incredible! The volcanic landscapes are breathtaking and otherworldly. Our tour guide was super friendly and extremely knowledgeable, sharing vivid stories and professional geological knowledge. Hiking across vast lava fields and seeing stunning volcanic craters is such a unique and unforgettable experience. Well-organized itinerary, safe arrangement and great service. Totally worth every penny, highly recommend to all adventure lovers!
Great day-long experience
