We had an amazing time on the Silfra Snorkeling tour! Anna was an incredible guide! She made sure everyone felt safe and took some amazing photos for us! All the equipment was provided we just recommend a warm base layer! We did the earliest time slot which allowed us to get in the water asap and not feel rushed during the experience! The views were definitely worth it 10/10 would recommend!!
Cold but super worth it! Totally unique experience - would recommend. Small group, very well prepped and laid out. Felt like the tour company had thought of all the details. Guide was great.
Fantastic experience! A must see while in Iceland. Guide was great and informative.
Our guide Joa was amazing! He made us laugh and also feel very comfortable! Highly recommend this experience!
Belly was our guide, she was fantastic! The experience is in incredible! A must do!
It was amazing experience! You can see nature from a completely different perspective. For me, it's something unforgettable. It’s also worth mentioning Marcelo and Abby. They were great guides— they shared plenty of interesting facts and joked a lot, which really enhanced the experience!
What an adventure!!! 100% recommend! Our guide Joa was amazing friendly and made the experience even better!
Truly one of the best experiences! Our tour guide, Anna, was amazing and took great photos of us. We were hesitant at first because of the glacier water but it isn't as bad as people make it out to be. You're pretty much dry and warm besides your hands and face. Can't recommend this enough. The views are insane!
This is a must do. Team and equipment is great. Amazing experience.
Really amazing experience..
