We had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was welcoming, and everyone made us feel so well looked after. A special thank you to our guides, Bikram, Sean, Nena and Anthonis who were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even more memorable with their enthusiasm and kindness. They truly went above and beyond.
We did the family rafting trip with our 10-year-old daughter, and it turned out to be the perfect adventure. None of us had any prior rafting experience, but we felt completely safe from start to finish thanks to the incredible team. Hari was the most fun and trustworthy guide we could have asked for. Naina was incredibly kind and attentive, and captured the experience with amazing photos we'll treasure. Mike, our other guide, took wonderful care of our daughter and made sure she felt comfortable for the tour. And last but certainly not least, a special thank you to Bhalu for being our emotional support! This was the grand finale of our two-week Iceland adventure and easily the most memorable. Highly recommend!
Sean, Bahlu, Mike, and Saurav (Sorry if I misspelled names). Jack and I had a blast and you were all very friendly, welcoming, patient, and fun. Cheers!
The BEST ending for our inaugural trip to Iceland!! Our tour group of 35 adventures had a FANTASTIC experience with Viking Rafting this morning. Saurav did an excellent job of being thorough, detailed, and patient as he explained the rules and procedures to ensure a great adventure on the water; he was also funny, too. Holding the attention of a group of 35, including all ages, is no small feat - especially when explaining procedures. He did this in two parts, before getting all of our gear and again when we arrived at the water’s edge for instructions about paddling and staying safe. We were lucky to have had Saurav as our raft guide as well, but EVERYONE we interacted with at Viking Rafting was helpful - even the young lady who assisted with rafting equipment (I really appreciated that she suggested I remove my ring so I wouldn’t lose it while paddling.) Even though our tour operator booked this experience for our group, I would 1000% book with Viking Rafting again as well as recommend them to others! Also, make sure to give Baloo a “good boy!” when he comes to greet you! He’s super fun to have as a companion in your raft!
Amir saved the day! He deserves a beer tonight. Our boat hit a rock and we all went in, quick thinking Amir got us all out with the help of the other amazing crew members.
This was such a fun experience! Harry and Sean were awesome guides and so fun!! I would highly recommend this to anyone young or old!
We had the most amazing trip on the river. Saurav was a fantastic guide. My kids rated this the best thing they did in Iceland. The highlights were the geothermal hot chocolate, free floating down the river, my 9 year old jumping off the cliff into the river and of course Bhalu. I couldn't recommend this trip enough
Huge respect to your 9 year old for sending it off the cliff, that takes real courage. Saurav and Bhalu both will be smiling reading this. So happy your family had such a great day with us. Big thanks for the kind words!
Such an amazing trip - highlight of our two week vacation in Iceland - tours were patient, knowledgeable and easy to talk with! Everyone who works there seems like one big happy family! They provide everything you need outside of basic thermals! My 13 year old son had a blast and the pictures at the end were great because we didn’t have to worry about capturing the moment while out on the water! Must do!
Highlight of a two week Iceland trip, that is huge, thank you! We really do feel like a big family at Viking Rafting and it makes us happy when guests pick up on that vibe. So glad your 13 year old had a blast and that the photos turned out great too. Means a lot, thank you!
This was an amazing tour! Nai, Andy and Mike made the experience so special and safe for me and my son (8 years old). My son really wanted to go rafting and he was thrilled by the white water rapids, amazing scenery, swim in the rive and geothermal hot chocolate. The team took good care of us and made it a wonderful experience.
So happy Nai, Andy and Mike took good care of you both and that your son got his white water moment. Thank you for taking the time to share the river love!
This was a great family rafting experience. We were fortunate to have great weather. Yes, the water is cold, but if you wear appropriate base layers, you will be warm. The dry suit will keep you dry. Don’t worry about falling out of the raft, unless you want to or are just careless. Hari was our guide and Naina was our photographer/rescue kayaker. Both were great and very personable. We were so fortunate that this was a small group (one raft, just 6 rafters total). This made the experience so enjoyable. It was interesting to have Bhalo, the dog, on the raft. I think he had a blast also. If you are near Akureyri, i highly recommend this trip.
Small group, good weather, Hari and Naina on the team and Bhalu doing his thing, that is pretty much the dream combo. Thank you for taking your time to share the river love and for the kind recommendation!
