    I had a great experience with Troll snorkeling in the tectonic plates. They provide all the gear you could need and talk you through the safety information, as well as the educational stuff. Was a unique experience!

    Great guide, not as cold as expected (water temp was 2 deg C, air temp was -4 deg C.

    The visibility was stunning in the water.

    Glad we did this, although I recommend wearing 2 pairs of socks. Also you might get a little wet, 2 out of 4 in our group had slightly wet shirts at the end.

    My wife and I did this, but we upgraded to the drysuit. Amazing time and great service. This is a must do activity. The drysuit is a must.

    Bjorn was our tour guide for the Golden Circle and was just amazing! He was very kind and made the entire trip fun!

    He was knowledgeable and passionate about Iceland! Bjorn took us to cool spots outside of the tour and genuinely cared about the group. I felt like he was my Icelandic uncle (lol).

    Bjorn is such a beautiful soul and if you decide to take this tour, I encourage you to request him!

    Thank you Bjorn for such an incredible experience on this tour! You are the best, much love from NYC!

    This was my boyfriend and I first time snorkeling. The best experience ever. Our tour guide Teresa was outstanding. She took time to cater to everyone’s needs and recognized when something was wrong. She made our snorkeling adventure so much better. We could not have asked for a better experience. Thanks again will be back for sure !!

    This was my second excursion through Arctic Adventures and I could not be more pleased. The snorkeling was amazing in crystal clear waters. Francesca was an amazing tour guide. Friendly & funny! Will do again the next time I’m in Iceland.🇮🇸

    We Loved It!!!
    Parking and Meeting Location: They send you instructions on how to do this. Pretty easy to follow.
    Staff: We checked in with one of the staff members and was instructed where to stand/hang out. They’re very busy so be patient. Roll call, waiver signing, etc.
    Getting suited up: Wearing thermals and wool socks will greatly improve your experience especially if you get cold easily. I struggled with this a bit. I don’t have claustrophobia, so I think but the snug feeling to keep the water out was tiiight. If you have claustrophobia and cannot overcome it, you might have difficulty. The suits fit me big, these are one a size fits all so you are given what fits best with your body size. You do get a waterproof bag that you can put your stuff in. I used a joto waterproof holder to put my keys in and wore it around my neck under my thermals.
    Instructions/Waiting to Get in the Water/Snorkelling/Pictures: our guide was Francesca. She was friendly, helpful not just to us but to other staff members. I could tell she truly enjoyed her job. Her enthusiasm is infectious.
    Overall: we enjoyed our experience. There was so much excitement and anxiety going through me that I had to tell myself to enjoy this moment. Truly a wonderful experience.

    The Arctic Adventures Black and Blue tour.

    The Lava Tunnel experience was excellent. Our guide was a very knowledgeable Greek chap named Dimitri who made the trip very entertaining. The tour provides crampons and a light/helmet for the walk into the history of a lava tunnel. Many photo opportunities and a fantastic time had by all.

    In the afternoon after a lunch break we transferred to the Silfra fissure for snorkelling. Theresa was an exceptional guide who kept us safe and entertained. The preparation is very thorough: personal base layer, warm body suit and a well fitted dry suit. Gloves, hat, mask, snorkel and flippers and we were ready to go after about 45 minutes. The water is so clear. The equipment kept us buoyant and warm. After initial instructions we drifted with the current through the fissure with amazing views below us. The team take photos for downloading later so you don’t need to take a camera if you don’t want to. After 30 minutes or so we were out of the water, heading back to get into warm clothes for hot chocolate and a snack. This is an unforgettable experience that we all enjoyed (13-51y!).
    Yes your face gets cold.
    Yes your lips feel a little swollen - but the water is 2-4 degrees C!!
    Excellent team providing an excellent experience. Thank you!!
