Ragga Was an amazing guide! Throughout the entire trip she was extremely informative and made sure to tell us all about the beautiful landscape of Iceland! Throughout the hike, and the beautiful scenery she explained the history of the Icelandic landscape and talked about the volcanic activity in Iceland and how it is shaping Iceland to this day! This was absolutely an amazing experience and I’m so happy we went!!

Today we were planning to view the volcanic area near Grindavik. We had booked a tour with 2Go Iceland because we also had a 1-year-old baby with us and do not like mass tourism.

Upon arrival we met Oddi, our guide for the day. Oddi made sure we felt immediately at home in the rapidly changing Icelandic landscape :)

Along the way, Oddi stopped regularly to talk about how volcanoes work, the vegetation we saw around us and he took us into the beautiful volcano area. As a highlight, we entered the relatively cooled magma together, which was a wonderful experience.

The whole group really enjoyed today and gained a memory for life. Thanks for the beautiful trip Oddi!

This was one of the best choices we made during our 1 week stay in Island. Gudni was excellent guide and apart from finding very interesting track he provided lots of interesting information about history and life in Island. This was a perfect combination of interesting physical activity and very informative discussion with a great professional.

This was a truly incredible experience! Our guide, Gudni, was as much an ambassador for Icelandic culture and lore as he was an exceptional and experienced outdoor guide. The volcano hike was beautiful and tailored exactly to our fitness level, and we learned so much about the vast and beautiful landscape and history. Gudni gave us a true appreciation for Iceland and its people while showing off one of the most impressive and unique places I’ve ever seen.

This day trip was amazing. The pictures online didn’t even begin to show the beauty of this hike and Gudni was an incredible tour guide. He was so personable and knowledgeable and we had so much fun getting to learn more about Icelandic culture and the land surrounding us. This is a must do with your time in Iceland!

Oddi was our tour guide and we highly recommend him. Very knowledgeable and had patience to answer all our abstract questions about the area. We were picked up on time and driven to the hiking trailhead. We saw and walked on the lava fields from past eruptions at higher elevations. We got to see a lot and it overlooked the new eruption area that is restricted due to dangerous gas. The only reason we rated this a four and not a five, is that we had hoped to hike to the new crater. (no one can do that now) PS the homemade snacks Oddi provided were awesome!

At the Reykjanes Peninsula we climbed the Fagradalsfjall volcano (eruption 2021). With the guidance of our knowledgeable tour guide, we carefully traversed the vast expanse of black lava fields, mindful of the potential dangers beneath our feet. The seemingly solid surface of the lava fields can easily crack and split, revealing treacherously deep crevices. We took a break to enjoy the experience, indulging in steaming cups of hot chocolate and homemade Icelandic desserts provided by Odie, our your guide. Our efforts were rewarded with a view of the newest additional volcanic landscape near Grindavik. Odie, assisted me down the mountain preventing me from falling

Oddi was an incredible guide! He took us to the site of the 2021 eruption and to some geothermal pools nearby. He told fun stories and brought us treats to consume at the mouth of a cave made of cooled lava. He couldn’t have been more kind, funny, or knowledgeable. Thank you for a great day!

We loved our afternoon hike with Haffi (the volcano chef). We really wanted to hike but were concerned with safety as eruptions are pretty imminent right now. Being with a local, experienced guide made all the difference!

He made sure we were fit enough and equipped for the hike, helping us find the best path up and down the crater in some crazy wind. He also had a heat scanner and brought us to some of the hot spots, explaining how the crater formed, filled the valleys, broke out to the sea, etc. And yes; he’s cooked an egg over one of the fissures too.

We would highly recommend this trip for anyone looking for a solid hike and a lesson on Icelandic volcanic history. And a few laughs too. Thanks Haffi!!

Our tour guide, Gudni, was great, arrived on time and was friendly and offered loads of local knowledge and facts during the day. The whole day was set at our pace and our boys enjoyed playing in the snow while at the top of the volcano. Highly recommend this tour if you want a great day, tour guide and memories
