Grand Tour of Iceland

Jane WIlliams 09 September 2016
Hi Bobby:
I am writing to thank you for arranging a wonderful trip for myself and my two 15 year-old grandchildren to Iceland from August 19 through the 26th, 2016.

We all really loved the experience of seeing the landscape and wildness of the country and meeting so many kind and caring people. Soaking in the Blue Lagoon on arrival after an overnight flight from the USA was absolutely perfect. And we discovered when we arrived later that day in Reykjavik that it was "Culture Day" with bands and entertainers and revilers filling the streets. What fun!

The highlights for the grandchildren were the trip to the Westman Islands (my granddaughter said, "I'd like to live here"), the many hikes and hill climbings they did, and of course, their 1.5 hr. glacier walk (in 60 mi/hr winds I might add). They loved it.

Our group was small - just 6 of us - and we all got along extremely well, despite the huge age differences. Our guide, Hermann Valsson, hermann.valsson@gmail.com, 354-854-5265 is a professional guide and was extremely knowledgeable about every facet of Icelandic life. The entire week was a history, geography, philosophy lesson that the children and I enjoyed immensely. We peppered him with questions which he never tired of answering. He was particularly sensitive to the children's needs and kept them engaged. I believe he is an independent contractor and works for the Jonasson group. I am copying him here so perhaps you two can communicate.

Hermann, thank you again for all your kindnesses. I have talked to a number of my friends about your outstanding talent for making our week very special. You have a true gift and I hope you continue to introduce your wonderful country to us outsiders!

Best regards,
Jane Williams

Scandinavian and Baltic Highlights

Hi Bobby,

I have been waiting to receive a questionnaire or a mail from you regarding the tour I took with you in June, but I never received anything so I write to you.

Thank you very much for a wonderful, punctual, extremely professional and well organized trip. We didn´t have to wait a single minute for a guide or transit, everywhere we went we had already been expected or someone was about to come and pull out a name sign. The times you indicated in your information were perfect to either avoid crowds or get there in time. The program was well chosen and helped get a perfect first impression. As promised the guides could either communicated in English or German.

If you want to be recommended on any homepage feel free to ask, I will happily give you 100 points in everything.

Iceland Complete Winter

Northern Lights Exploration 04 April 2016
Hi Susie,
I wanted to let you know I enjoyed the Northern Lights tour we took March 20 - 27 immensely. We were so lucky to have Helgi as our tour guide. That man is a walking encyclopedia!! He is also very accommodating, and has a great sense of humor. All important traits when giving a tour to a bunch of people who have never been to Iceland before. I had no idea Iceland was so geologically phenomenal!!
Thanks a million!!
