Klassisches Kajak-Abenteuer am Berg Kirkjufell

Freundliche Guides, entspannte Einweisung mit alles notwendigen Informationen, mehrsprachig, Englisch, Spanisch, isländisch Hinweise auf Tiere (Sehende, Kormorane) Hintergrundinformationen, Legende zum Berg erzählt Das Wetter hat glücklicherweise mitgespielt. Ein einmaliges Erlebnis, dass ich weiterempfehle.

Our cruise line unfortunately cancelled our port visit to Grundarfjörður a few days before our arrival there, so we naturally turned to this activity provider to cancel per their policy for a full refund, which says "You can cancel up to 24 hours before the scheduled departure and receive a full refund" This provider refused to refund directly, instead referring us to a travel insurance company we had bought extra protection from through Vestur in the event we had to cancel *less* than 24 hours before. That process is horribly complex: you can only be refunded by a wire transfer that costs a significant service fee and must provide all your bank account information and scan a lot of documentation to justify. Tried to get Vestur to refund us directly per their own policy but the flatly refused. This is not service, this is not right. Do not book, and if you do, do NOT use the optional insurance as you are really only insuring that the provider gets to keep your fees even if you cancel within the terms of their own cancellation policy. Horrible experience, full stop.

This was such a fun little excursion. We went with 2 parents and 2 teens and did the 2 hour tour with Gardar (spelling)?? He is the owner and does multiple tours each day himself. The day we went it was beautiful out and the water was calm and peaceful. Gardar will give you dry suits so you don't have to worry about being too cold (except your hands). He took us around to see the mountain up close up and told us little mythology tales about it. We had two curious little seals keep popping up close to our kayaks, and got hot chocolate at the end. I highly recommend this trip!
