Frequently Asked Questions
About Guided Group Tours
You may have a few questions and queries before you book your guided tour, so we’ve collected the most commonly asked ones for your convenience. If you want more in-depth information, then please read our Iceland Travel Guide or see our FAQs for information on the booking process, payments and more.
Iceland is among the safest countries in the world. It has a first-rate health system that is consistently rated higher than larger countries such as Australia, the USA, and the UK.
In 2020, the Icelandic government successfully suppressed the outbreak of Covid-19 thanks to a rigorous trace-test-isolate strategy, testing more citizens than any other country.
Cases of coronavirus infection have been in single figures since mid-May. As a result, Iceland was among the first countries to reopen its borders on June 15 2020.
Also, we at Nordic Visitor are doing everything we can to ensure the safety of our guests on our Guided Small Group tours. You can expect rigorous hygiene standards at every turn:
For more detailed information, please refer to our Iceland Travel Safety page.
You can extend your trip by a day or more at either end of the journey, and our guests often do so to have more time to enjoy Iceland. If you’ve not added extra days when booking but want to, contact your travel consultant as soon as possible to rectify this.
It is possible to add excursions and activities at a later date, providing it is at either side of your journey. Each of our packages comes with recommended extras so we’d suggest choosing from these. Otherwise get in touch with us should you want a specific activity that is not noted. For any extras, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can ensure it is secured for your vacation.
We advise that you check over flights for times and prices, then book your package to secure it. Once your tour is confirmed by email, purchase your flights. If you have missed out on flights, please get in touch with us to change the dates of your tour.
We welcome children over the age of 12 to travel on our escorted tours. We would also suggest looking into our family-friendly self drive tours as they do offer more flexibility for families. Contact us should you have any queries about travelling with children.
We choose and test our hotel rooms for optimum comfort so you’re able to come back from a day of exploring and relax. Typically the hotels and guesthouses we choose are also flexible and can offer twin rooms as well. Just let your travel consultant know your preference and they’ll be sure to organise what you need. As for triple rooms, the hotels we choose do not offer these for comfort reasons.
Travellers can bring one medium piece of luggage per person. Luggage will be stored on the bus with guests, who are responsible for taking it to their rooms and then back on to the bus for the next day’s travel.
We’d advise bringing a small rucksack or backpack for essentials like cameras, extra clothes and wallets. Figuring out what to bring, especially during different seasons, can be a challenge. Luckily you can refer to our handy packing guide or ask your travel consultant.
On all of our small group tours, breakfast is included so each day you’re starting your adventure with plenty of energy. As well as this, when travelling outside of Reykjavík the majority of dinners are included, depending on the tour.
You’ll be delighted to find that Iceland has a wealth of food and drink to enjoy during your tour. Expect the freshest ingredients, such as locally caught fish, traditionally farmed lamb and vegetables, and specialities like kæstur hákarl (fermented shark). If you have special dietary needs, please contact us so that we can offer you alternative options.
Each of our tours have an activity level label and recommendation so that you’re able to travel and explore at a leisurely pace and not feel hurried. However, we appreciate that there are some activities that you’ll find easier depending on your mobility. We’d recommend contacting us for more information on the tour you have in mind.
We offer tours for a wide range of customers, travel activities and activity levels so our guests often vary in age. We don’t have an age limit but do recommend getting in touch if you want to know more about the activity levels and accessibility.
Each of our buses are specially chosen so that our customers are comfortable and can relax. We don’t offer tours on buses over three years old and although our vehicles seat 19 people comfortably, we allow a maximum of 16 guests onboard to ensure there’s plenty of space for everyone.
The standing height and seating room for most of our tour buses is just above 6’4” (193 cm), meaning that even our taller guests won’t have to crouch to enter or squeeze to sit. There are also lots of stops along the way for comfort breaks where you can stretch your legs and get some fresh air.
A small group tour is where you join a group of fellow travellers with a guide and go on an adventure together. We believe that small group tours are more enjoyable than large tours or coach tours, as they are more personal and can go to the areas of Iceland that coaches cannot. As well as this, your guide will be a local with in-depth knowledge of the area and where the best spots are.
We’d advise that when you’re looking to join a group tour, research the areas you’d like to see, flight times and the amount of time you want to spend travelling. Following this, choose from our selection of tours and book. Once confirmed all you need to do is purchase your flights and start thinking about all the wonderful places you’ll visit on your journey.
Travelling with a tour group is immensely rewarding. On a group tour you can meet like-minded travellers and it means there’s always company, which is popular for our many of our solo guests. However, if you prefer to either travel solo or wish to travel with only your friends and family, why not consider our self-drive tours or private tours.
A local tour guide is a fantastic addition to your Iceland adventure. They’ll not only share their favourite parts of Iceland with you, but you’ll also learn what makes Iceland so special from someone who lives and breathes the country.
We specially select our tour guides and make sure that they’re not only the most knowledgeable but also that they meet Nordic Visitor standards. This means they’re guaranteed to be local experts who can share their passion for Iceland with you and help you make lasting memories of your journey.
Whether you want a guided tour in Iceland depends on the type of holiday that you want. With a guided small group tour comes the ease of having a guide drive you so that you can relax and interact with them when you’re at the various attractions. This means you’ll be in expert hands and that you’ll be able to concentrate on taking photos, making memories and learning about the areas you visit.
Guided tours also give you more free time to do things like optional excursions or going solo for an evening. However, if you prefer the flexibility and independence of driving, then we’d suggest you take a look at our fantastic self-drive tours.
Providing a gratuity is entirely up to you. In Iceland tipping is not generally expected. Of course, should you want to show your gratitude with a tip, we’re sure your guide will appreciate it.
