“We saw a lot of spectacular scenery and the awesome power of nature in Grindavik. The stops were great, but the day was made by our tour guide Eric. He really knows his stuff - the history and geology of the place - however much more than that he is an engaging storyteller. He talked about what we were seeing, of course, but also drew out the human impact on the people of Grindavik. He brought to life the impact on the community, and the resilience of the Icelandic people. Highly recommended - especially if you can request that Eric is the tour guide!”
