This company was really accommodating when we had to change our reservation time! They were all super friendly, funny & knowledgeable. It made our whole zipline experience such a great time! I highly recommend booking with them if you're ever in Iceland!
Johan and Duarte were fun, informative, and safe guides who led us on our zipline tour of Gleràgil Canyon. There are 5 segments, with small hikes through wooded areas in between. Beautiful scenery. The lines gave enough thrill for the more adventurous (over the river) but even the cautious ones of our group fully enjoyed it. We had an easy walk back to town of Akureyrie for lunch.
A fab experience we were a group of ladies over 60 who had a fantastic time we were nervous but they were so helpful
This is a very fun and exciting experience! Anna and Elfa are both amazing! They made even us first-timers feel at ease and safe while flying over and through a beautiful canyon!
Fantastic couple of hours zipping across raging rivers and gorges, the two guides were fun, experienced and ensured that you were safe. This fun filled tour was excellent value for money and I would not hesitate in recommending it as a must do in Akureyri.
Don’t miss this! What a cool way to see how nature and city intertwine in this magical corner of this magical country. The guides were fun, funny, and professional. The setup was to the highest standards. The scenery was simple gorgeous. So fun!!
My family had a wonderful time at this family-owned Zipline adventure! The trip has 5 ziplines that go back and forth along a beautiful river. The guides are warm, friendly, and funny which adds to the enjoyment. For anyone on a cruise, it is very easy to get to and from the cruise ship to this location independently.
This was a great experience. Easy to find and the scenic views were outstanding. The guides were personal and extremely helpful.
The scenery is spectacular. Hike from one zip line to another. There are a total of 5 zip lines of various lengths. Our guides were great. They were a lot of fun and worked hard to ensure everyone had a good time. Most important they made sure to stress safety
The zipline experience was amazing. So much fun! Just enough. Our guides Nika and Doart were amazing so professional and fun. The area was so beautiful. And to be in town so convenient.
