Are any tours from Capital Region accessible?+
Operators have flagged accessibility on some: 141 for prams and strollers, 83 for wheelchair users, 61 for limited mobility, 27 for limited sight. Ring us before booking rather than relying on the flag alone — Icelandic sites vary enormously and a flag does not describe the terrain at the stop.

Varies by operator. Across these: wi-fi on board on 248, parking fees on 183, admission fees on 137, food and drink on 97, fuel surcharge on 69. Anything not listed as included is not included — Icelandic operators are literal about this.

What happens to tours from Capital Region in bad weather?+
The operator cancels and refunds you in full — Icelandic operators cancel readily, and that is a good sign rather than a bad one. What they will not do is refund you for a tour that ran and simply had poor visibility. Wind cancels more tours here than rain or cold.
