“Family Iceland trip”

written by hmoye on 01/08/2013

We had a tour of Iceland arranged by Green world holidays for ourselves, our 4 children (age 9-12) and my husbands parents (in their late seventies). Everything was pre arranged and pre paid in advance, including flights, transfers, accommodation, car hire and some trips. A suggested itinerary was included to give suggestions on where to visit while we there. All the arrangements worked without a hitch and having studied the guide books ourselves we did stick mainly to the suggested itinerary. What mattered to us with our group of 8 was to have all the arrangements and decisions made in advance as far as possible to avoid wasting our holiday time having to debate what to do next! Iceland itself delivered very well indeed, managing to offer plenty for everyone in our group, without the need to split up and do separate things. Highlights of the trip are difficult single out as we enjoyed it all, but some of them include the walk on the glacier (my mother inlaw was very nervous about whether it would be too tough, but was well looked after by the guide), visit to the island of hrisey, the nature baths at Myvatn, the geothermal power station near reykjavik and of course all the mud pools, hot springs and lava fields. I was in short an excellent holiday.
