You'll arrive at Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Once there, you'll take a short journey through the volcanic, moss-laden fields of the park. Here, you will listen as your friendly and experienced PADI Divemaster guide.

Later, you'll receive all of the necessary equipment for snorkeling in Silfra, including neoprene hoods and gloves, a thermal drysuit, snorkel and fins. The equipment will keep you buoyant throughout your time in the fissure, as well as offering a protection against the water.

Once in the water, your eyes will meet the incredible shades of blue so prevalent in the fissure, as well as the natural under-water flora canyon walls. As you are swimming you will have the opportunity to swim across continents, as you will be switching back and forth from the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. After the tour GoPRO pictures will be sent to you by email for free.

Got sick overnight and wouldn’t refund - toothache needing emergency extraction. Only booked day before, plenty of spaces left for other people to book on if needed. Black and white no movement with tour operator or via tour even with evidence. Would not have been able to grip snorkel in mouth. Lost £230.

OMG such an amazing experience. I would like to thank Troll for even accepting us to continue with the event considering we were a late due to some car issues. Lou definitely did an amazing job of keeping us alive haha but also just helping us navigate and ensuring we had an enjoyable time. The hot coco afterwards was just icing on the cake!! We loved everything about this experience!

We are very thankful for Coach Lilian's guidance, which made our experience quite wonderful.

Before starting, they carefully helped us put on dry suits and checked each one to prevent any issues while snorkeling.

Afterwards, Lilian briefed the four of us about the whole activity process and things to be aware of. They also interacted with us in our native language.

When it came time to get in the water, Lilian patiently taught us snorkeling techniques and took many photos and videos for us.

Before we left, they also took some time to introduce us to Iceland's attractions.

With their care, the entire activity went smoothly and was very safe. We highly recommend everyone to participate.

Lastly, we would like to say Lilian is so handsome(Lan Jai).😂

Simply an amazing snorkeling experience! Norwegian family having a blast. Time spent in the water was even longer than expected. The kids (11 and 13) loved it. Mom an dad, being former scuba divers, loved it as well. The Troll instructor Veronica was top notch :-) Professional, calm, serviceminded, and just great with the kids of all ages ;-)
