All-in-all an incredible journey

Iceland: The Golden Circle & Ring Road

“Our tour has become a favorite for me. I credit our tour guide (Triggvi) with his incredible ability to educate and inform as we went. (Iceland has such history that I was unaware of, and I learned so much.) In addition, the amazing sights of volcanos, waterfalls, & glaciers, with all that formed around and because of them, is an experience I am so appreciative of having. Loved seeing the many horses and sheep, tasting good food, learning about Icelands folklore, and meeting nice people. Our bus driver was also a good part of my experience and was very much appreciated as well. Shout out to Steiny! The Northern Lights were amazing to see. We were fortunate to have perfect conditions and fellow travelers who stayed up watching and alerting the rest of us. All-in-all an incredible journey.”

Must do, must go trip!

Italy & Greece

“Although I had a few mishaps on the trip, I had someone to guide me the whole way. Being in a foreign country for the first time when things don’t go as planned can be very scary. After things settled down for us, we were able to enjoy new friends and experiences. Must do, must go trip!”
