Super enjoyable food tour
"We were looking for a food tour with unique local delicacies and we found it! We tasted delicious cod stew and soup with lamb. And Natalia also challenged us by offering to eat the local treat Hákarl, fermented shark. Quite an experience :) Together with the other tasting we had more than a full diner.
Next to this we had a lovely strawl through town and Natalia told us all about local culture and the history of Iceland. Also she gave us great tips for the rest of our stay. Definitely recommended!"

Excellent Time in Reykjavik
"We had a wonderful walking food tour with Nataliia for 3 hours. All of the stops were delicious and brought us to places we would not have otherwise gone. Would highly recommend going with her if in Iceland!!"

This is About Maria, Not Nataliia!
"Nataliia was not feeling well, and was kind enough to send a friend rather than expose us to her ailment. Our guide was Maria. She is delightful!! She met us at our hotel, which we greatly appreciate. She rearranged the path of the tour to start at our location! Her English is exquisite so we were able to understand all of the interesting historical stories, which she told very well. She introduced us to Iceland’s history with enthusiasm and humor. We felt well informed, and also felt that we truly got an experience with a “local” who made us appreciate the Icelandic people very much more. Everything we hoped to have on this tour, we had — even ending at a bakery with the best warm cinnamon rolls in the world! Thanks to Nataliia for caring about our health (we hope you feel better!). Thank you to Maria for caring about our experience and making it unforgettable!"

Wonderful experience
"Maria,our guide, was so friendly and knew everything we wanted to know. She met us at our hotel and provided the very best time for us. We loved her stories and historical information. She is such a charming person. Natalia arranged Maria for us because Natalia got sick. We so appreciate the happy experience."

Excellent guide, great tour!
"We had a wonderful experience with Lilli. His communication and directions were very clear and he was prompt. We spend bout 3 hours exploring the city. It was a very interesting and entertaining experience. I highly recommend this tour."
"Elisabete provided us with the perfect day! She called the day before to confirm plans and was ready and waiting for us. We saw the entire Golden Circle and even had time for some extra stops along the way. The ride was comfortable, the conversation engaging and we felt cared for the entire day!"

Natalia did a great job!
"We thoroughly enjoyed Natalia’s 3 hour walking tour from Hallgrimskirkja church, through town, to the port and into the beautiful symphony hall. Natalia cheerfully shared history, stories, and stats of the places we visited as well as Reykjavik and Iceland. She also gave us restaurant recommendations and tips for visiting attractions on our own. An unexpected surprise was the popular lamb hot dogs for lunch! "
