Noteworthy
Physical activity / hiking is a component of this trip including uneven terrain and in some location moderately steep inclining as well as loading and unloading the customized 4x4 van throughout each day. You must be in GOOD physical condition to enjoy this trip and not to disrupt the enjoyment of the trip for other guest.
International airlines flying to Reykjavik are Iceland Air or Delta. Our local tour outfitter provided one shuttle transfer on the day of departure to the airport for the morning Iceland Air flights. *You are welcome to fly the afternoon Icelandic Air or Delta flights if this is the most convenient flights for you, however you will be responsible for reserving and paying for your shuttle to the airport (approx. 50km) (cost $25).
The Iceland Air and Delta flights arrive between 6:00am and 7:00am which is the time we will expect all guest to arrive on July 19th. Haukur and I will be there to greet you outside of customs.
If you would like to arrive a day early, July 18th, I will book all early arrival hotel accommodations on your behalf at the Radisson so all guests are at the same hotel. This additional cost will be included in your invoice (Approx. $525 per room / double or single).
