Customer Reviews
Amazing experience with Imagine Travel – unforgettable Iceland trip! We had an incredible experience with Imagine Travel during our trip to Iceland. We joined the Northern Lights tour as well as a day trip to Goðafoss, the lava fields, and Hverir – every place was absolutely breathtaking. Our guide, Ármann, was truly outstanding. He is extremely passionate about his work and has deep knowledge of Icelandic history, culture, and local stories. His storytelling made the journey even more special, and his sense of humour – especially the Viking jokes – made us laugh throughout the trip! He looked after everyone so well, always putting health and safety first, and making sure we felt comfortable and informed at all times. You can really feel how much he loves his country and enjoys sharing it with others. Icelandic culture is truly fascinating, and this experience made me fall in love with the country even more. I’m already looking forward to coming back in the summer to explore even more of this beautiful land. Highly recommend Imagine Travel and especially guide Ármann! ❄️🇮🇸
We had an unforgettable experience on the Northern Lights tour with Imagine Iceland Travel. Our guide (Norbert) was exceptional—knowledgeable, and genuinely eager to give everyone the best possible chance of seeing the aurora. He shared fascinating insights about the science behind the lights. History of Akureyri all while keeping the atmosphere fun and relaxed One thing I really appreciated was the company’s kind of “second chance” policy: if we didn’t see the Northern Lights on our tour, we were welcome to join again the next night for free. It took all the pressure off and made the whole experience feel even more guest-focused and fair. Norbert went above and beyond—constantly checking weather updates, adjusting our route, and finding the perfect viewing spot. His photography tips were incredibly helpful too, beyond all of this - in my undestanding - he is the only one who offers to take photo of you for free, no other company does this and thanks to him I came home with fantastic photos. Seeing the Northern Lights is magical, but having such a dedicated, friendly, and experienced guide made the night truly special. I’d recommend this tour—and Norbert—to anyone dreaming of a breathtaking Arctic adventure!
We did a few excursions with Imagine Iceland Travel and had a really great experience. For both tours we were picked up from Hotel Akureyri, which made everything easy. The Northern Lights trip was a success, we saw the lights, and the guide was happy to go past the planned finish time because it took a while for the clouds to clear. It felt like they genuinely wanted us to get the experience, not just stick to a strict schedule. Our Lake Mývatn day tour with Ármann was the highlight. Because the light levels were low in the morning, he rearranged the order of the stops to make the most of the day, and even with the changes, we never felt rushed. We still saw loads, and Ármann was friendly, personable, and really knowledgeable throughout. Honestly can’t recommend them enough.
