“We have been to Iceland 4 times and this was hands down one of the best things we have done in Reykjavík! We had to postpone our trip by a day because of the weather, and the crew could not have been kinder or more helpful - they got us rebooked right away.

“This was one of the highlights of our trip! Absolutely enjoyed every minute on the boat. We were on the fish right away, and when it slowed, the captain was quick to move us to another stop.
