If the weather cancels this tour
Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is high wind or rain on the ice — the guide decides at the meeting point, sometimes after you have set off. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.
- 1Marina Travel decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
- 2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
- 3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.
What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until 1 day before departure, the operator's policy after that.

Our mate was incredibly kind and explained everything so clearly, and her driving was smooth and comfortable, which made traveling in the car very relaxing. Since all of us love taking photos, we sometimes moved a bit slowly while stopping for pictures, but she patiently waited for us every time and even took amazing photos of us. We also loved being able to experience Iceland’s stunning landscapes and enjoy truly special moments that are not easy to experience elsewhere, such as glacier trekking and witnessing the aurora. It was truly the best tour we could have asked for, and we were extremely satisfied. If you’re looking for a tour that feels like traveling together in a comfortable, friendly atmosphere, I highly recommend this one!

I traveled to Iceland with five friends, and our guide was Josip. I love traveling and have visited many destinations, and among all the guides I have met so far, Josip was the best guide. He spoke slowly and clearly for us, knowing that our English was not very good, and he truly made an effort to help us fully experience and enjoy Iceland. Thanks to him, our memories of Iceland will stay with us for a lifetime. Throughout the entire trip, we felt comfortable, joyful, and genuinely happy. Because of Josip, Iceland has become a country we truly want to visit again. Josip was not only the best guide, but also a protector who took great care of us. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the travel agency for introducing us to Josip.

Hello! I traveled to Iceland with my friends from Korea. It was the first time I realized how enjoyable traveling with a guide could be. Maybe we were lucky. Even on the same route, the experience wouldn’t have been this memorable if we hadn’t grown close to our guide during the long hours of traveling together. We are always grateful to our guide, Josip, who treated us so warmly that we called him “Papa” throughout the trip. It truly was an unforgettable journey. We love you, Josip!

We had an amazing holiday, thanks to Marina Travel and Goran! Goran was with us for full 5-6 days for our golden circle tour.! He was always on time, planned the day well, communicated the time and plan very well. He understood our needs well and guided us accordingly. He is knowledgeable and shared the history of all the sites. He is wonderful to talk to and he is an amazing photographer! Highly recommend Marina Travel for a Personalized and enjoyable experience! And if Goran is assigned to u as a guide, it would make a huge difference to the quality of your holiday!

Read before you book
- Sólheimajökull, Skaftafell or Vatnajökull — which glacier hike to actually bookThree glaciers sell almost the same walk at different prices and distances. Which one fits your route, what 'easy' means, and what blue ice really requires.
- Snowmobiling on Langjökull or a glacier hike — pick one glacier day, not bothAn hour on a snowmobile from €241 or three hours in crampons from €92. They feel nothing alike, and one is the better first glacier day for most people.
- An easy glacier hike on Sólheimajökull still means crampons and cold handsWhat 'easy' means on Sólheimajökull, what you need to bring, how long you're on the ice, and which tour to pick from the glacier or from Reykjavík.

Lagoons & spas — questions people ask
Is the Blue Lagoon worth it or is it too touristy?
It is busy and it is worth it, once. The water is milky blue from silica, the setting in the Reykjanes lava is unlike anywhere else, and it sits twenty minutes from Keflavík Airport, so it fits an arrival or departure day. Book a time slot in advance; it sells out. If crowds bother you, go early morning or after 20:00. The Secret Lagoon or Fontana on the Golden Circle are calmer and cheaper alternatives.
Can I do the Blue Lagoon on the way to or from the airport?
Yes, and it is the best way to use it. Transfers like IceTransfer's Keflavík to Blue Lagoon to Reykjavík (/experience/1036423/) or the reverse (/experience/1036419/) stop at the lagoon for a few hours with your luggage stored. Allow at least three hours at the lagoon and check that your slot lines up with your flight. Note that the Reykjanes eruptions have closed the lagoon at short notice; check its status before travelling.
What is the difference between the Secret Lagoon and the Blue Lagoon?
The Secret Lagoon at Flúðir is a simple, warm geothermal pool with a bubbling hot spring beside it and basic changing rooms. It is on the Golden Circle, so it slots into a sightseeing day (/experience/17050/, /experience/624446/). The Blue Lagoon is a spa: silica masks, swim-up bar, saunas and a price to match. If you want a soak after a day of waterfalls, Secret Lagoon. If you want the spa day, Blue Lagoon.
Do I have to shower naked before a pool in Iceland?
Yes, at every public pool and most lagoons. Swimwear off, wash thoroughly with soap, swimwear on, then into the water. It is a hygiene rule because Icelandic pools use very little chlorine, and it is taken seriously. Changing rooms are single-sex with open showers; some larger lagoons have a few private cubicles. Nobody looks. It feels odd for thirty seconds and then it does not.
