This is my second Intrepid trip and I will definitely do a third. Like the first tour, I believe that you are shown a speedy, yet accurate, snapshot of the country. I love the fact that you experience, as much as any tourist ever can, a more "local" side of the country. It's not that it's not plush, as there certainly were some luxurious stays on this tour, it's more that it is more "real". Our guide (Halla) was bursting with enthusiasm and love for her country which was infectious. All told 10/10 Intrepid. Bring on my next trip!

This is a great trip that covers a lot of Iceland. This country is amazing and I truly loved each minute of this trip. We went in July and it was cold, so be prepared. The accomodations were great, including the guest houses. They had wonderful views and even the ones with shared toilets were amazing. Make sure to have extra days to explore Reykjavik on your own. Our leader Stefan was great.

Fantastic Premium experience in Iceland with a group of 8 (35-45 age group). Adventure, lots to see, lots of fun and laughs and I learned plenty new things about the country. Hotels were good and the food delicious. I highly recommend this trip!

Great trip but poor itinerary with too much wasted time. Tour leader pleasant but useless, inexperienced with no local knowledge.
