boat tours
Two operators we sell for, both running a boat tour. Here is what separates them, in the figures we hold — and where nothing does, this page says so.
BusTravel Iceland costs about €41 more a head, and that difference buys 6 more hours out, hotel pickup without arranging your own way there, more languages on the booking form, more room to cancel without losing the money and more dates to fit around the rest of the trip. If that is what you want, it is worth paying for. If it is not, Borea Adventures does the same activity for less.
Prices are per person for tours priced per person — private charters and vehicle-priced tours are left out, because a car price and a seat price are not comparable.

No. We sell at the operator's own price — we are paid a commission by them, not a mark-up by you. The reason to book here is that you can put both operators' tours in one basket and pay once.
