Practical Note Below *

 

My academical background is a BA in Philosophy (studied in Iceland and Denmark) and an MBA from ESADE, Barcelona.  I finished my degree from Barcelona the year 2000 and since then I have started various business ventures in Iceland and abroad and I have completed them all successfully

 

In 2009 I opened a Tourist Information in the heart of Reykjavik.  5 days after opening I realized that I was not happy with the tours that I was offering.  I decided to make my own tour.  That summer the White Night Hike tour was an instant success, only relying on word of mouth.  Since then we (all my family is involved in this adventure) have created several tours / adventures.  Our family adventure had just began...

 

Now, in 2012, we have sharpened our focus.  We aim to be your local agent in Iceland.  In the winter time (september - may) we have the fortune of meeting and sharing a great deal of time with our travellers.  Our taylor made private tours are available all year round. We consider ourselves to have the best "job" there is. Summers are much more busy and therefore there is even a more need to use our local knowhow in order to avoid "touristy tours".  We want to focus on doing what we do best - creating memories that will last a lifetime.  Our fellow travellers have used terms like "highlight of my visit" / "My best travel expience"... and we aim to keep delivering them comments !


Sincerely yours,

* Practical Note :  We ALWAYS guarantee that you get the BEST PRICE available - When we book / recommend service providers we get a wholesale price - the difference of our wholesale price and your best price available is our income.  Note : Our oppinnion can NEVER be bought as we value satisfaction over margins

Don´t just take our word for it :

 

"Take it from a PRO TRAVEL WRITER - You will never, ever find a better guide!


My name is Jake Halpern and I am a journalist and professional travel writer. I have traveled the world over and met countless guides.  I am not easily impressed.  And I have never written a review like this before...  I felt like I was travelling with my best friend.  If I could clone them and replicate them, placing them in every country I visit, I would do it. These guys are the best, not just in Iceland, but in general..."
