Thank you for all the tips. I ran across your video very early in my search on Iceland so happy that I found it.
My free tips: #1 after landing, whether you but a ticket to the Blue Lagoon spa or not, drive over to the Blue Lagoon and park at the Silica Hotel which is a part of the hotel group. There is a flat hiking trail, facing out of the front door, on the left. The trail winds around to the Blue Lagoon. You will see beautiful milky blue water. I saw a couple getting married in the lava rock! The trail is free. No one said anything about us parking there.
#2 Save $ eating the hotdogs from kiosks or gas stations. They are the best I have ever had. Ask for loaded!
#3 The Barn Hostel in Vik was one of the nicest hostels I have ever seen. You can walk to the Black Sands. Great view of the ocean. USD $35 a night.
Great tips thank you!
I feel like I don’t get this level of practical information from other travel bloggers. Excellent job guys!
Thank you so much for the kind words. We try to provide the best travel advice we can think of, even if it means doing something a little out of the ordinary!
My thought exactly. Down to earth couple
Totally agree! Thanks for all your practical & informative tips! Going to Iceland in 2 weeks. Will be following your channel for more tips on your trips. Great job!👍
This was the best trip adviser that I have ever seen. The host couple are really easy to listen to and very loveable.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel! We are so happy you enjoyed the video and got something from it!
I don't normally write comment #s but straight away I liked how you mentioned all the essential info for the money-conscious travellers like myself. These types of informative videos are hard to find. Well done!
Thank you so much for the support to our channel and kind words. We are happy that the video was useful to us. It means the world to us and we hope you have an amazing trip!
As an Icelander, I can confirm these are excellent tips for a trip to my country. You can f.e. save a lot of money stocking up in Bónus as it is always the cheapest one (according to multiple surveys). It can be expensive to eat out all days.
Thank you for confirming the tips and sharing your local insight!
Cool! We depart to Iceland June 11. First visit
An Icelander here. This was a very acurate and sensible video. Thank you.
I appreciate your kind words and support from across the globe!
This was, hands down, the best information about traveling to/in Iceland I've found. Thanks!!!!
Thank you for your kind words and support to our channel! It means a lot to us that you got something from our videos. Subscribe as we have a lot more information to help you travel to more destinations around the world!
Great video! Can’t wait!🇮🇸
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel! We are so happy you enjoyed the video and got something from it!
You totally nailed it in this video. We did Iceland Summer 2021, and despite the high cost of things it ended up being a reasonable vacation because most of the attractions were in nature. Renting a car and hitting the supermarket often kept the costs down. We did AirBnBs all over the island, and driving was easier than most places in the US. For foks in the Western US, check out Iceland Air direct from Denver or Seattle. Cheers!
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad to hear that you had a great time in Iceland. There are so many ways to offset those high cost but even without that it is such an amazing destination.
How long did you stay there? We're going there for 4 days and we're thinking about renting a car but might cost too much since we aren't staying for long
@@mh1073 We did 10 days. I'd recommend a car for 4 days if you are not doing an inclusive tour. We enjoyed the freedom to drive ourselves.
Such great information! So glad I found you!
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel! We are so happy you enjoyed the video and got something from it!
Very practical info, now I’m excited to go there

Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel! We hope you have an amazing trip! We definitely will make a ton more like this!
We are already planning our trip for summer of next year cause experiencing Iceland for 2 winters we are not doing anymore!! lol. we love the fact that the plane ticket prices were cheap but that weather was ruthless. On the flip side getting to see the Northern lights was worth it. We are renting a campervan and heading north this time. Being that it doesnt get dark in the summer thats the perfect time to try to get spots to ourselves. Great video once again!!
Thank you guys for the support again. I was so inspired when you guys went and watched your videos so many times preparing for this trip. When we saw how hard those winter drives were we decided it was perfect to come this time. Thanks for sharing your plans with us! I'm sure you'll have a fantastic time and I'm glad that you enjoyed the video.
Excellent commentary, I appreciate travel guides for budget conscience individuals
Glad it was helpful and you enjoyed!!
Great tips guys😍. We are looking at Iceland and this was extremely helpful 💯
Glad it was helpful guys! We truly appreciate the support to our channel! I hope you have a great trip!
Great tips, especially about optimal time to visit. I was there in July, want to go again for one of the music festivals.
Glad that you found the video helpful! Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel. It means so much to us!
Love this. Taking my wife to Iceland this week and I couldn’t be more excited about to. Thank you for this video. Just subscribed to your channel cause I’m trying to get our travel game up like y’all, Lol. Looking forward to more of your content
Sounds like you guys are gonna have an awesome time in Iceland. We have a ton of content coming about our experience that we cannot wait to share. We can't wait to hear all about it! Thanks for subscribing to our channel, much appreciated!
Awesome tips, cant wait to go next month :)
Hope you enjoy it!
This is awesome info!! Thank you so much for assembling this. Looking forward to going to Iceland in Nov for my sisters birthday!! 🥳
I hope you have a great experience and enjoy it for me!
Excellent tips which I intend to use when I visit Iceland. I hope you create many more videos for European destinations!
Thank you! We have traveled to a lot of europe before we had a youtube channel. However we do plan to do more of europe soon!
I've seen on CZcams so many different countries and cultures and it's amazing how Iceland stands out with it's beautiful volcanic environments and coastal views, not to mention the countries culture and laws make it truly fun to view and understand. I myself honestly don't like cold weather or snow anymore since being a child but I'm gonna be honest to say I might be able to handle living there primarily because of the people and their composure and attitude to new people. What many places on this earth could do better with is how cultures accept other races to it's country I know there's no utopia but Iceland is a model country thanks for this great video.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel! It means the world that you enjoyed our content! I hope that you do get to visit. Our full experience in Iceland is coming out next week so stay tuned in for that video as well!
This video was very informative! Im surprised and happy that most people speak English. I was anxious about that 😅. The trip overall sounds affordable. I’m definitely subscribing!
Glad it was helpful! You will have an amazing time. Thank you for the support!
We're planning our 1st trip to Iceland and this was some very practical and useful info!! The duty free and tax information was something I didn't hear anywhere else! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you so much for the support to our channel. We are so happy that you found it useful and we hope you have an amazing trip!
Same here! And I thought I'd seen all the tips!
Great video! We went to Iceland in March and your tips are spot on! We are planning to go back next year! We took Icelandair but we will have to check out Play flights when booking our next trip.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel. We had an amazing time and glad you did as well. Icelandair is a great airline as well!
Great info!!
Thanks for watching!
First of all, you two are adorable! I so appreciate you sharing these things with us. Many of them will be very helpful and are things I did not know.
You are so welcome! Glad you found it helpful!
Very well done!
Thank you so much!
Love to see a brotha posting good travel content! Keep it up
Truly appreciate the support to us. Glad yyou found it useful
?
Thanks for sharing. I just came back from Iceland and had a wonderful time. The weather was amazing. It was sunny and slightly warm the whole trip. I visited Akureyri, Isafjordur, and Reykjavik. Reykjavik was my favorite because I tend to like bigger cities. That said, Akureyri and Isafjordur were BEAUTIFUL.
The Blue Lagoon was nice and not overly crowded -- at least at the time [midmorning] we went.
I was only in Iceland for four day, but I WILL return. The next visit
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel! Glad you had an amazing time. Glad you got to do so much with your time!
Thanks for the info! This was very detailed and will definitely watch a few other videos.
I'm still trying to figure out if it is worth it to go on guided tours or if I should just drive to each point. Also trying to figure out how difficult it is to find parking in Reykjavik.
Glad it was helpful! Personally I loved doing it myself, the only tour i thought was worth it was the ice caves tour!
First of all you guys make such a lovely couple.
Love this video, it was very informative. Can’t wait to plan my trip now!
So happy that this was informative for you! Have a great trip!
You guys are awesome. This is the type of video we need and information. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for the support to our channel! Glad that you found this information useful!
Well done brother 👌
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel! Truly appreciate it all!
I loved Iceland. I went solo... I stayed in an airbnb and used the busses to get around to save $$$. The water was so good!
Thanks for watching and checking it out. Im happy you had a great time out there. I have a ton of content coming out about our experience. The buses is a great tip if you do not feel comfortable driving
Thanks for this testimony I myself have thought many times I want to visit also but I'm single and yes I'm apprehensive about that part? Please tell me how it went with you stay and travel there 👏
@josephtaylor5909 It was great! It was easy to use the busses. I did pay for some of the other tours. The cars were very expensive to rent at the time. It was always daylight so I felt safe. I stayed in an airbnb in a neighborhood. She picked me up from the airport and explained the busses, etc to me. There was a grocery store along with the bus stops in walking distance.
@@ChewsToExplorehi, great vid. Im goin first 2 weeks in march with a 10 year old. We will be using buses. Please send on your vids of iceland. Thank u ❤
We went to Iceland in July. Absolutely loved loved loved it!!! One of my favorite places. You are right on...Iceland is very expensive!! We went via Oceania Cruise lines. I appreciate your suggestions. If we are able to take a land trip there they would be very helpful. Thank you.
