Overall, this was a good experience. There was a little confusion because there were two tours on the same bus. When they dropped us off at the Lagoon, they took another group to lava fields. The time at the waterfalls was good. Could have used slightly more time, but not bad at all. The time at the lagoon was maybe a little more than we needed (2 hours). The stop at the lake was very quick! We barely had time to get ice cream, much less see the lake. The guide highly recommended the ice cream, and it was good, but not amazing. Bring bug nets for your face for the lake for sure!
The tour provider combined 2 different tour groups together which I felt was confusing as we were never quite sure of the order of things. Loves all of the places we saw especially the spa. Probably my biggest complaint was the lack of understanding on our the spa process and procedures. You should definitely bring your own towel as even if they rent them we were never explained that process and we didn’t bring a towel and I ended up have to use one of my shirts as my towel upon getting out of the water.
Why a 2 star rating. We were packed like sardines on a bus with 50 others. First stop to the waterfalls was a 45 minute ride, waterfall was beautiful and we were given a specific time to return to the bus. This was the down hill of the tour, a group was 20 minutes late as they were shopping for souvenirs. The bus was a combo of tours, we dropped off half of the bus to the lava fields and then we were taken to the natural spa. The spa was just “Ok”. There are no private changing rooms, but the showers were private. Remember to bring a towel or you can rent one. We were at the spa for 2 hours and then the bus picked us up. We were given lunch to eat on the moving bus (choice of a pre packaged sandwich and bottle of water) after the spa. Next stop was the lake but we did not get off the bus as there were too many flys. We were scheduled to return to the port at 4 pm but arrived at 5 pm due to delays in people returning to the bus on time. There were guest from another cruise ship with a departure scheduled at 5:30, they were stressing they would not get back in time. I would suggest if you are only interested in a natural geothermal lagoon experience, Forest Lagoon offered free transportation from the cruise terminal and would be a better option.
Wonderful tour and great service with pick up and drop off from the cruise terminal. I recommend this tour.
The guide gave good information as we traveled from place to place. The locations such as the lake and waterfall were beautiful, along with the drive! The baths were amazing.
This was an awesome experience! Highly recommend. Our tour guide Nico was extremely knowledgable and shared her own personal experiences that led her to becoming a tour guide. The driver, Lucash was amazing and kept us on time and safe.
Nicole was a great guide, very knowledgeable and fun. Loved the Godafoss Waterfall. Myvatn Nature Baths were interesting and the only reason I gave 4 stars was because they were a little disappointing. Lots of construction around the pool so you didn’t get the feeling I expected.
The Falls and the Hot Springs were fabulous! Our guide Nika a woman from Spain did a fabulous job also and our driver was very skilled.The chicken sandwich I did not enjoy!
Great tour! Needed another 45 min at Godafoss Waterfall but plenty of time at the Myvatn Baths. Niko was excellent and the chicken sandwich was delicious. Fun day.
The baths were amazing. The bus driver and tour guide were also very helpful and great at providing info on the area. All in all a great experience! Thank you!
