Testimonials

From Beatriz

Landmanalaugar - Pórsmörk 5 days Hike. It was one of the best experiences of my life! The guide (Kristján) was fantastic, he was very helpful to all of us, and knew so much about the places we were visiting; we were really lucky with the weather, the organisation was absolutely brilliant, the food was excellent... I would book again an activity with Arctic with no doubts if I go back to Iceland! Thank you so much!

In the past the Hornstrandir was populated with vikings, then colonies of fishermen and finally none at all.

In the footsteps of Elves is a great trekking and sightseeing trip in the East and North-East of Iceland.
