Eric with Rough Guides crafted the perfect trip! My husband and I did the Golden Circle, the Ring Road, and the Diamond Circle. Yes, we took our time and it is so worth it! We loved doing the Blue Lagoon which is quite busy and fun. Be sure to go into ALL the saunas, take a cool shower and splurge on the moisturizing mask. My face looked glowing! Hit the Lava Restaurant for an incredible chill setting and incredible food. We did the mushroom soup and a salad, followed by an Icelandic dessert and coffee. Super delicious. Other highlights for us: Silfra dry suit snorkel trip, glacier walk, glacier helicopter ride, aurora trip, stopping to view all the fantastic waterfalls, geothermal and volcanic sites, historical sites, museums, restaurant recommendations, and more. Check out the GeoSea Baths in Husavik! Incredible views from a spa! Eric also added on last-minute requests and was able to pivot for us when a vendor canceled on us. It was a relief to not have to deal with those details! Our only regret is that we didn't go for one month! Thank you, Eric!

We were connected up with Iceland Offbeat by Rough Guides, as I wanted to have an itinerary and accommodation booked for a week in Iceland and was finding it hard to plan. Eric our travel planner was excellent, and produced a great itinerary consulting me on what we wanted and how long we had. He then booked all our accommodation and hire car and some activities. We had an amazing week travelling round Iceland, the whole thing went like clockwork. Eric is a specialist for Iceland and his knowledge completely made our trip. I recommend him and that you follow his suggestions and you'll have a brilliant trip!

I never thought that I would make it to iceland with so little fuss . Èric was amazing in helping me plan my trip and the itinerary provided and hotels booked were all good places. All my questions were answered. I only had to study the itinerary like on a few weekend before my trip to see which are the places that we are going , and also look through the optionals to see which i really want to go to . Despite the weather, i really enjoyed my trip . He also helped me find a local photographer for my photoshoot in the Capital . Thank you for a wonderful trip .

We had the most thoughtful and helpful advice in preparation for our trip to Iceland from our guide, Eric. I can recommend his services without reservation. Our holiday was a huge success in large part due to Eric's guidance. In particular we valued his recommendations of out-of-the-way spots that we could never have found otherwise. Very often we found ourselves feeling gratitude for all Eric's forethought and insider knowledge. There was only one minor glitch with a hotel booking in a remote location. When we reported this on our return, it was dealt with prompt reimbursement of a payment made. Our spec was a trip to the Westfjords off the beaten track using local services where possible. This was taken seriously and an itinerary was delivered that met our needs precisely. We were grateful for the careful discussion beforehand that delivered this successful outcome. I hope others will be able to benefit from the services of this very thoughtful and well-informed guide, Lucy A.
