The trip I booked, was simply wonderful, life changing, and an experience that will rival in pace you visit. Deluxe Iceland and Egill gave me a personal excursion into a wonderful country filled with awe. I soaked up all the knowledge and can't wait t visit again, in the summer next time. Deluxe Iceland is the only way to experience the treasures of Iceland. Thank you.
