hiking & trekking tours
Two operators we sell for, both running a hiking tour. Here is what separates them, in the figures we hold — and where nothing does, this page says so.
BusTravel Iceland is ahead on more of what we can measure and costs about €243 less a head. The €243 is worth paying to Midgard Adventure only if a higher Google score (4.9 against 4.7) is what you are after.
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.

Our availability snapshot covers the next 360 days. In that window Midgard Adventure has 87 bookable dates in this category and BusTravel Iceland has 359. An operator with no departures in the window is usually seasonal rather than closed.
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.
