Seemed bit muffled at timrs. heI did ask hom if he could speak bit louder as I am bit hard of hearing. He was an excellent guide though and very knowledgeable and interesting when I could hear some of what he said. A lovely day. Excellent.”

I would like to mention that the day is quite long so make sure to have plenty of snacks and water especially for after climbing the stairs at one of the waterfalls! Overall it was breathtaking to see the south of Iceland and we would do this trip again!”
