Great experience. Guide was great. Only disappointment was not seeing any lava flowing. Not the fault of the company, the volcano just decided to go dormant the day before. Enjoyed walking on the lava flow and feeling the heat coming out of the vents. Enjoyed the trip.

I would give them 10 stars if I could.
The pilot made sure everyone saw and filmed perfectly the vulacno and asked if we wanted pictures next to heli.
We landed near vulcano and that wasnt planned part of the tour.
The whole tour lasted about 1hr and 15 minutes instead of 35 minutes which was awesome!

This excellent tour supplemented a truly memorable week in Iceland. To be able to fly over a live and active volcano was mesmerising. It was a sad counterpoint to see the empty village of Grindavik.

The capable pilot, the organization of the trip and the WOW of seeing an active volcano! The sight of the dramatic Icelandic landscape of lava and sea.

The pilot made it come alive and was knowledgeable about the scientific underpinnings of volcanos. It was one of the most exciting tours of my life.

It was only 20 minutes. NOT 35 or 40 as advertised. Four people were squeezed into the back seat. Two did not have good views or take pictures. Cost was almost $900.
