Nordic Visitor Recenzje 

Good hotels, good attractions, great guide, great driver.

As an elderly woman who travels solo, it was important for me to feel comfortable with who I was going to be with. I did read Nordic reviews prior to booking. Our tour guide and driver were excellent!

Barbara was very knowledgeable about Scottish history, which I enjoyed. John was a safe and impressive driver.

Excellent, personal service by Marko, who set up my round-the-island road trip, resulting in a wonderful holiday on my first visit to Iceland.

The trip was advertised as a small group, and we were a group of 12. The trip was the 7 Wonders of Scotland! Our guide and driver were excellent! John and Kenny were knowledgeable and local. They had many years of experience and shared their knowledge of the each area with us.

Nordic Visitor's Guðrún Líf Björnsdóttir was extremely helpful in setting up our recent self-driving tour of West and South Iceland. She was very responsive to our questions. Our tour was fantastic! Transfers from airport to hotel and car rental were very smooth. Detailed daily information was very helpful and made the daily drive stress free. Would definitely recommend! Thank you!

We have just ended our 12 day self drive ring road journey in Iceland. WOW!!! what an amazing experience from start to finish Zachary John Scott did an excellent job organizing this journey for us. The memories we created will last a lifetime, We highly recommend Nordic Visitor.

The tour guide, Barbara, and driver, John were very nice and professional. Barbara is extremely knowledgeable and passionate on Scottish history and John is a top notch driver. He navigated our bus through the tightest of spaces and kept us all safe and sound. When one of our days got rained out Barbara added in a sheep experience which was very nice. Unfortunately, this trip and itinerary in general was more fit for an older crowd, not active 40-somethings like me and my partner. Although we saw a good portion of Scotland the majority of the tour was spent on the motorcoach where other passengers were fighting over their placement in the bus. I would have preferred to spend more time walking some of the trails in nature or to have been given more time for exploring. Additionally, one night the hot water went out in our accommodation, and everyone had to take cold showers. This trip was entirely too costly to have an experience like that and there were not any concessions or apologies made for the experience. Finally, the hotels were situated in the most remote of locations with nothing to do or no one else around. When I travel, I like to interact with the people of the country, not just other Americans on the tour. Where was the cultural immersion experience, where was the fun? Where were the bag pipes? Could I recommend this trip, yes, for my parents in their late 70s, but for my active friend group of 40-somethings, no, not at all.

I spoke with the customer service team and Lorna was very apologetic for the experience that we had. She mentioned that the things I described were uncharacteristic of Nordic Visitor tours and they generally are great for all age ranges. She gave me credit for the night we had without hot water and a discount code for a future tour. I appreciate the apology and the act of good will to make things right. Nordic visitor seems to be a very caring tour company.

We chose a six day trip which was too short. Would like to spend more time in cities. Did not have any free time to speak of.

Our guide, Barbara, was very knowledgeable and pleasant. However, a situation arose with a couple who consistently inconvenienced everyone else. I feel they received preferential treatment. The situation should have been addressed on day one and in a much better manner.

John, our driver, was excellent.

I want to update my review. We had a lovely trip to Scotland with Nordic Visitor. My complaint was about a situation with other travelers that had nothing to do with the quality of the tour. I have spoken with a lovely lady named Lorna at Nordic Visitor. She listened and understood my complaints. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

This was our second trip with Nordic and again another fabulous trip! Our guide Barbara was top notch! Driver John navigated the tough Scottish countryside with ease . You really get the whole experience and history with a guided tour!
Accommodations and meals were great. What a wonderful trip to Scotland and we look forward to our next Nordic vacation !

We have recently completed the "Natural Wonders of Iceland", 10 day/9nights tour - a small-group tour round Iceland on the Ring Road. We started at the end of April and finished at the end of the first week in May - so it was still very cold.

Nordic Visitor were a great travel company to deal with. The online booking process was straight-forward and efficient and the online portal for customers was useful.
We chose the tour over self-drive because it relieved us of the driving and Nordic Visitor handled all the logistics which was great.

We had an interesting group of 15 including two Australians, a couple from England, mother and daughter from Canada, and 9 from USA. The men were outnumbered by the women! We had a great guide, Reynir, who was a really good match with our group. Reynir provided us with very good information about the day's arrangements; was very informative about the places we visited; and provided lots of interesting information about Iceland as we went along.

All the arrangements by Nordic Visitor were flawless for us - from airport pickup on arrival, through day-to-day arrangements on the tour; and transport to the airport on departure. We found all the hotels to be great - from the Fosshotel Reyjkavik to the country hotels around the country. All were very comfortable with good facilities, and the food for the dinners provided had great variety with a blend of Iceland specialties and more familiar favourites. For lunches, Reynir took us to places that allowed the individual tour members to make choices suitable for their preferences and budgets. The tour bus, while nearly full with the 15 on our tour, was tight but comfortable.

The tour took us to the main highlights of Iceland's south/south west - the Golden Circle and Snaefellsnes Peninsula, and also the north where there are fewer tourists. This tour was a great introduction to Iceland and we added a few days in Reyjkavik to the end to see the sights or the capital.

Covering Iceland via the Ring Road in 9 days meant the tour was quite busy, but having two days at Husavik mid-way through and the opportunity for a few hours in Akureyri allowed for a bit of extra flexibility for the tour members.

We pondered long and hard about the various options to tour Iceland - to focus on part or to "do" the Ring Road; shorter/longer; self-drive with organised accommodation or all self-booked; or to hire a campervan. In the end, having done the tour, we were very happy that we chose the small group tour option with Nordic Visitor, and that we chose the 10 day/9 night option. I think that a shorter trip would not have done justice to Iceland.

Nordic Visitor provided tour members with a lot of pre-tour information about appropriate packing for winter or summer tours, information about highlights of Iceland, and information about restaurants. This was very useful in understanding what was ahead of us.

Notwithstanding that our tour was in Spring, many places were already quite busy - so, despite the cold and fresh snow at times, I think all of us were very happy at the timing we chose for our tour.

This was a great tour and I would recommend it without hesitation.

We’ve just finished a tour of Ireland and Scotland with Nordic Tours and would highly recommend this tour company. This was our first small group tour, so you can imagine we weren’t sure what to expect - but everything went along as planned. It was awesome! Mike, our guide, was excellent - a great storyteller! And the accommodations were lovely! Nordic handled all the details. We would definitely book again with Nordic - highly recommend!

Our trip to Scotland was unforgettable! Barbara and John were wonderful, they made us feel like family and put extra effort into ensuring we had the time of our lives. When the weather was rough they added items to the itinerary the next day to make up for it. We only wish we had more time to see more, like more Inverness and some of the other villages.

What made this trip exceptional was the fantastic guide and driver team. Ger and Darrin were so knowledgeable, kind and ever present for our needs throughout the trip. I've been on a number of guided trips and this was by far the best.

Ger and Darin and the great beauty of Ireland made for a terrific trip! We had the best guide and driver. They were fabulous at taking care of us and showing us the best time! Ireland is gorgeous and we saw so many beautiful sights. We loved the sheep dog demo and holding the little lambs. Ger very gently kept us on schedule and Darin got us around safely. They both were informative and fun. Ger managed to accommodate all of our requests and shepherd us from one place to another with such joy and good humor. She was a storeload of info and made us feel like we were her best friends. What a skill!

Our guide Barbara and driver John were excellent. We learned so much about Scotland that we would not have discovered on our own.

Because this was our first trip to Iceland, I wanted to make it easier to plan by going with a company that would book accommodations along the Ring road. The hotels or guest houses would be reasonably distanced so that we could see sights along the way but not feel so rushed that we would be exhausted in getting to our next destination.
I picked the medium priced package and it was perfect because we were staying in a variety of places; some family run and some more formal.
Once we knew our route , I was able to pick sites to see and also made some dinner reservations ahead of our trip.
The tomato farm was a big hit and I was glad I had gotten the last reservation of that day. And that was booking it a month in advance!
We were also very pleased with our drivers to and from the airport.They realize that they are the very first people we would meet on arrival and they enjoyed giving advice and recommendations especially to us newcomers.
Markó was great to work with as well answering my questions in a timely manner ,and offering suggestions along the way.
Booking our 10 day trip with Nordic visitor was seamless and this type of travel gave us control of our own schedule and what we were able to do on our own time.
Thank you for a most memorable trip! We are already talking about what we will see next time!

Nordic Visitor’s s Markó Puskás made booking and organising our holiday in Iceland a breeze. Incredibly helpful and informative. The bottle of Champagne with our welcome pack waiting at the hotel was a lovely touch.
Then, over the next week, our travels in a very comfortable mini bus took us around this fascinating, awesome, otherworldly, chilly and beautiful island.
Trausti Gunnarsson our guide/driver made the experience even more special. He was so well informed and happy to pass that knowledge on. Funny, friendly, skilled, a joy to spend time with. He even took the time to knock on our hotel doors when the Northern Lights were visible.
Overall I cannot recommend Nordic Visitor more.

Our trip to Iceland through Nordic Visitor was an absolute dream trip. The self-driving tour was flawlessly put together, with road maps, points of interest, rental car, and great accommodations all laid out for us. I could rate this company with 5 stars just for the trip-related material they provided -- an excellent spiral-bound tour guide and a map that had been marked up with routes and points of interest.

We had an opportunity to experience Nordic Visitor's 24 hour help desk, as my wife left her backpack at a hotel in Rekyjavik. Dagrun was immediately helpful in locating and securing our forgotten backpack.

From initial inquiry through booking and travel, Zachary Scott was the face of Nordic Visitor for us, and he did an exceptional job. He walked us through the process and answered at least 100 questions from me. His communication was excellent -- responses to my inquiries, reminders, recommendations. When I book my next Nordic Visitor trip I will reach out to Zachary directly, and would encourage anyone to do so also.

The trip from start to finish was perfect. Nordic Visitor truly put together the perfect itinerary for what we wanted to see in Iceland, and for us, it was an amazing tour. I've already got my eyes on the next Nordic Visitor tour!!!

Nordic made our dream of a custom tour of Scotland a reality. We had a small bus and driver/guide that let us plan but also include flexibility. The drivers allowed us to avoid the pressure of driving on the left and navigating unfamiliar roads. Ben, our guide, added so much with his suggestions, information, and wonderful sense of humor. We added things like Dunvegan Castle on Skye, and the Bannockburn experience that filled out our enjoyment. Our Daughter in Law worked hard with Jana to plan our tour and it showed. Using mostly B&Bs with a couple of small hotels our accommodations were very comfortable. Jana's suggestion of traveling in April gave us great weather and small crowds. We met so many nice people and learned so much more. Only a couple of small hiccups of little consequence. We enjoyed our time in Edinburg, and the highlands immensely. This is probably not the cheapest way to tour but I think gives you the best value.
