Cancellation for this tour
Cancelling costs 20% of the price within 999 days of departure. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.
If the weather cancels this tour
Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is wind and visibility — flights are grounded well below the limits you would guess. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.
- 1Icelimo Luxury Travel decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
- 2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
- 3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.
What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until the cutoff shown above, the operator's policy after that.
Questions on the day: [email protected] · +354 497 1373. How cancellations work in Iceland →
Sold out on your date?
Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.
Who this is not for
- Not for late risers on your first morning — the earliest departure is 06:00, and Reykjavík pickups start before that.
- Priced per vehicle, so it is poor value for one or two people and good value for four or more sharing.
Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

I absolutely loved my northern lights tour with Icelimo. Kel, our guide, was really nice, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. He took the time to explain everything, drove us away from the crowds and found the perfect spot to watch the lights dance in the sky. It was a magical experience and I highly recommend!!

Excellent service, they were always attentive to detail. I especially want to mention our guide, Briosh, for explaining everything in the places we visited. Iceland is wonderful, but it's so much better with a company and guide of this caliber. Thank you so much! Highly recommended for anyone wanting to go to Iceland.

The full-day, Golden Circle tour with Jan was remarkable and memorable. He was engaging, knowledgeable and enjoyable. And he easily accommodated the two 80-year olds with us. The scenery and conversation were excellent. A very well-done tour.

I am the owner of Discover Scandinavia Tours, a boutique tour operator located in Florida and specialized in creating excellent Scandinavian vacations for North American travelers. My team and I have been entrusting Icelimo Luxury Travel with our clients touring Iceland for a number of years and I simply cannot say enough positive things about them. When it comes to professionalism, attention to detail and customer satisfaction, Icelimo is simply impossible to beat. It is no wonder that our clients come back from Iceland raving about their experience. Thank you very much for such a wonderful partnership, Icelimo team!

Read before you book
- Akureyri Airport transfer: bus, shuttle or privateAkureyri Airport is a few minutes from town. A seat on the flight bus costs about €11 to €18; a private car is from €240 and only makes sense for a group.
- Best Way from Keflavík Airport to Reykjavík (2026)Shared bus, private car, or the Blue Lagoon on the way: the Keflavík Airport transfers we would book ourselves, with real per-car prices.
- Blue Lagoon transfer: private car, shuttle or taxi?A private Blue Lagoon transfer costs €107 to €232 per car. Under three people the bus is cheaper; with luggage or a late flight the car wins.

Airport transfers — questions people ask
How do I get from Keflavík Airport to Reykjavík?
It is about 50 kilometres and 45 minutes by road; there is no train. Scheduled airport coaches run to the BSÍ terminal after every arrival and are the cheapest option. Private transfers (/experience/942190/, /experience/1193487/) meet you at the door and drop you at your hotel, worth it for families or late arrivals. Taxis are expensive. If you are stopping at the Blue Lagoon, book a transfer that includes it (/experience/1036423/).
How early should I be at Keflavík Airport for my flight?
Two and a half hours before a European flight and three before North America; the airport is small and queues bunch around the morning and afternoon departure waves. From central Reykjavík allow 45 to 60 minutes' driving plus a buffer in winter weather. That means leaving your hotel three and a half to four hours before departure. Coaches and transfers work backwards from your flight time when you book.
How do I get to Landmannalaugar without a 4x4?
By highland bus. From late June to September, scheduled transfers run from Reykjavík to Landmannalaugar (/experience/247406/, /experience/914986/) and back, about four hours each way on gravel and river crossings. The return-in-a-day option (/experience/270187/) gives you several hours at the site. Rental cars without 4x4 are not insured on these roads and get stuck. If you are hiking Laugavegur, the luggage transfer (/experience/1036525/) moves your bag hut to hut.
Is a private airport transfer worth it?
For three or more people, or a night arrival, yes. The coach drops you at a terminal or a hotel bus stop and you may need a shuttle or a walk with luggage; a private car goes door to door and waits if your flight is late. For a couple on a daytime flight with light bags, the coach is fine and much cheaper. Check the tour page for what happens if your flight is delayed.
