Summary:
Great experience
Alexandro (guide) was warm, professional, welcoming, and adapted to the requests and the requirements of the group. The views are exceptional - its experiencing Iceland's rough and beautiful nature at its best.
The only disappointing fact was the late departure due to a vehicle which was not checked properly prior to the excursion (which could have and should have been prevented), but was replaced within a half an hour, and did not have a negative effect on the experience and the day as a whole.
Thank you Midgard !

Summary:
I am recently widowed and needed to get out of the USA for a bit to clear my head, so I decided to check Iceland off my bucket list as it has been a life long dream. As a Jeep driver, I felt that a superjeep tour simply made sense as part of my trip. Anna was the guide I had, and she was a delight. I loved hearing about her life in Iceland, being a guide, and all the fun Iceland facts. Would recommend to anyone and everyone. Worth every penny. Book a tour.

Summary:
We thoroughly enjoyed our super jeep tour with Midgard! It was a highlight of our trip.to Iceland. Our guide, Carlos, made the experience more special with his insight into the history and culture of the country and his sense of humor. We saw so much and got to experience part of Iceland we would never have had the chance to in a rental car!! Highly recommend!! Expensive but worth it!!
