I've just come home from from a wonderful tour of northern Iceland, guided by Francesco. True, Iceland is beautiful, but you need the right, experienced, and knowledgeable guide to explore the best spots.
That's what we did: the Húsavík region is rich with interesting places to visit, both culturally and photographically. I've loved the Akureyri area, especially the tiny Grimsey island, and the area around Sauðárkrókur.
Having such an expert and kind guide made the tour really special. I can't wait to come back to experience some more or the Icelandic lore through tales and images.

Io e mia figlia abbiamo fatto il tour dal 9 al 17 settembre, ci siamo trovati aggregati ad un gruppo meraviglioso, cosa che sicuramente ha giovato alla buona riuscita. Come ha contribuito una situazione meteo ottimale, niente pioggia, poco vento e temperature godibili; ciliegina sulla torta la nostra guida, Lorenzo, che ha saputo gestire il programma in modo perfetto dimostrando una notevole preparazione ed un modo di rapportarsi veramente encomiabile, per cui un grande ringraziamento è dovuto a lui ed anche alla sua organizzazione.
