    I would have given 5 stars but disappointed that NO BACKPACK received prior to the trip and after asking the Tour Director many times it turned up on the very last day. However it was missing the map and information on Iceland. I would like that information and have requested it from the Ireland branch of CIE and to date have not received any acknowledgement of my request. Extremely disappointed especially as the 38 American tourists had all received their backpacks and all information prior to leaving the States. Living in Australia as I do should not present a problem. This was my second trip with CIE and had no problems with the first trip. Iceland was an excellent trip but spoilt by lack of attention to detail.

    David and Palli were great! The itinerary was diverse, so we felt like we got a good glimpse at Iceland and how the Icelandic people live today and in the past. The hotels were all very nice.

    I had a great time. The tour was well organized - we saw so much of Iceland. The hotels were all good. Our guide was knowledgeable and funny. The size of the group was good (about 30 people) and the bus was quite comfortable.

    This tour met our expectations and we would recommend to future travelers. There was only one stop that we would recommend you eliminate immediately . The Viking Village was unsafe and boarded on dangerous for visitors. There was no reason to stop there.
