“We had an unforgettable trip and would highly recommend Rough Guides!”

“We used the Rough Guides referral tool to inquire about self-guided trips in Iceland. We received 2 proposals very quickly, both quite reasonable. We went with Traveo, who organized an excellent trip, with regular communication. The only issue was the weather (including one day of Orange wind warnings and closed roads) but I guess that was out of their control. . .”

“Awesome trip with a thoughtful itinerary that was planned excellently. Made for an effortless vacation. It was well tailored to our needs as a family of 5 with young children. Thanks for an incredible experience”

“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!”

“Our family trip to Iceland was amazing. Rough Guides/the expert helped us plan everything from places to stay, things to do and where to go. They sent a detailed itinerary which kept everything organized and on track.”

“The easiest, quickest answer is that the trip was amazing. Summary: Seeing Iceland was a bucket list item that I feel fortunate to have checked off, and I consider the entire experience to have been life-affirming. My education and entire career have been in the geosciences, and for anyone interested in earth history and processes, Iceland is clearly an earth-lover's playground, where everything is a feast for the eyes, not just the "highlights" (the planned stops) but all along the drives from point to point. It is fascinating that Iceland's landmass is so young when it leaves the impression of being so ancient, so primal. Seeing Icelandic horses and sheep literally everywhere and viewing all the farms, many nestled below a waterfall, takes one back to simpler, serene times. The Icelandic people are so nice, and I am both amazed and thankful that everyone speaks fluent English. I quickly became acclimated to the colder temperatures and, in fact, found it invigorating. The early September weather was wonderful, with just moments here and there where the wind gusts were intense. I would go back to Iceland again and again if that were possible, but I do plan at least one more trip, so that my family can experience what I did.”
