I had a great time with Valkyrie! Our guide, Jake, was very knowledgeable, and we spent half the tour laughing. I would highly recommend the trip to Dynjandi. The company was also very responsive and helpful with my questions beforehand.

I just finished the four hour Isafjordur and Dynjandi tour with a local guide from Isafjordur. It was one of the most fun tours I’ve ever been on in my six decades of life. The guide was very informative and being local was able to give us details that outsiders would not have been privy to. He was extremely funny. The falls were beautiful. The scenery is out of this world. I would 100% recommend them to anyone who is coming to the western fjords.

We did a private tour of Isafjordur and Westfjords with this group and they were fantastic. Our guide, Flor, was amazing. Super friendly and great to talk with about Iceland and all other subjects. Whether on a private tour or large group, I think you’ll be in good hands.

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Valkyrie Tours in Iceland this summer! I took several day tours with them, and every single one was incredible. The guides, Jake and Anna, were outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing the beauty of Iceland. The tours were well-organized, and the itinerary covered breathtaking landscapes and hidden gems that I wouldn’t have found on my own. I can’t recommend Valkyrie Tours enough if you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure in Iceland. Thank you, Jake and Anna, for making my trip so special!
