Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"What a knowledgable and delightful gentleman, we had a fantastic time and his knowledge and explanations were so good. It was a real journey through the history of Iceland and I would highly recommend him. "
"We were undecided on what to do in Reykjavik on a recent cruise. We had been here before but were traveling with family, one person who walked slowly with a cane. We decided to take a walking tour at the last minute with Lalli. I let him know we had a slow walker with us and he led us on a wonderful tour of the city. He was extremely understanding about making a stop to rest for my brother; was very imformative including a good dose of humor; and truly loved sharing his city with us. We enjoyed a special fish and chips lunch together and he was the perfect guide for our morning in Reykjavik. I'd highly recommend Lalli to anyone wishing to learn about the history and culture of this wonderful city."
"I cannot imagine a better tour. He was informative and entertaining. I highly recommend him."

"Lali was great from the first. We had some issues w our hotel and the contacted him so he met us in the lobby. His grasp of the history of Reykjavik and Iceland was perfect to set us up for our subsequent visits to the settlements museum and the national museum of Iceland. He paced everything so well told the story in chapters w opportunities to sit and listen to the next chapter. We could not have asked for a better introduction to Iceland and Reykjavik. Thank you Lalli. "
