Tailor made tours 

Tailor-made tours offer you the flexibility to design your own trip exactly how you like it. You can decide how and when to travel, the level of service and the hotel standard. At Exploring Iceland we are happy to organize your perfect Icelandic adventure to  give you (and your friends) a chance to explore Iceland in a private and exclusive way. When joining a regular group tour you might not always be happy with your travel companions, in fact sometimes an annoying fellow guest can spoil the fun of an otherwise great tour. So for your future Iceland visit why not gather a group of friends and like- minded people and ask us for a quote for your personal perfect small group vacation in Iceland? Be it in self -drive mode or with a knowledgeable guide, from simple guesthouses or self catering cottages to 4 and 5 Star luxury hotels. Add easy hikes, glacier walks, whale watching, horse back riding,  visits to farms and local artists or even a genuine Icelandic cooking seminar. You name it – we organize it! With our own fleet of buses and professional and dedicated guides we have received much praise for all of our tours and our attention to detail – be it in summer or winter time!

​Get inspired here by some sample itineraries! 
Family tours have been increasingly popular in Iceland. In the last years we have been organizing lots of tailor made tours for small and bigger families - with fun guides who will keep the kids busy with great outdoor adventures like horseback riding, kayaking, glacier walks and Viking handicraft. And besides – what place in the world is better situated for fun geology and history lessons than Iceland? What a great way to spend some quality time together!

Testimonial ​​
You did a wonderful job and from my experience (we do travel quite a lot) Iceland has the most gracious and warm people of anywhere we have been. We loved it all, the accommodations were wonderful, your descriptions and recommendations very informative and all in all a truly wonderful experience. You can count us in as ambassadors for recommending Iceland and using Exploring Iceland as well! You did a wonderful job on our itinerary and we thank you!

Here is a small guideline for the information that is useful for us to give you a suitable quote and route:

1. Preferred dates – many hotels and other accommodation are getting booked up early especially during summer time – so make sure to book early to have the greatest choice. 
2. No. of participants (i.e. no. of double/single/triple or family rooms needed)
3. Preferred accommodation: starting from sleeping bag accommodation in basic mountain huts to private rooms with shared or private bathrooms, 3-4 star hotels, farm accommodation, self catering cottages – there is a lot to choose from!
4. Any special interests? Literature, Geology, History, Art, Flora & Fauna 
5. In terms of sightseeing – any sights you have heard of and would definitely like to visit? Is it glaciers, volcanoes, lava caves, waterfalls, hot springs or the Northern Lights that fascinate you?
6. Any activities that you fancy such as snow scooter on glaciers, tours with husky dogs, horse back riding, river jet, hiking, kayaking, glacier walks etc.
7. Would you like to cover a lot in terms of distances or is it slow travel you prefer?
