Although not native to Iceland, reindeer were introduced in Iceland during the 18th century. Placed in four regions, they only survived in the highland areas of East Iceland. Sometimes it is possible to spot them while driving around the region, especially in the Hallormsstadur forest area and around Lake Lagarfljot.

If you stop in Seydisfjordur or Eskifjordur port, join us on a tour for an opportunity to meet one of these beautiful reindeer while exploring the Eastfjords!

Our Story

Every summer has a story. Ours began many summers ago at our home office in the beautiful port of Isafjordur in Iceland.

It’s hard to plan the perfect trip for people until you get to know them better. And whilst planning shore excursions from Isafjordur, we soon discovered the difficulties faced by cruisers – the absence of budget friendly small group tours, the difficulty in finding tours at the smaller ports and the scarcity of reliable tour operators, quality tours and good service.

We took up the challenge to make sure cruisers have a wider choice of great tours across all ports. Since then we have gradually expanded operations to other parts of Iceland and the Nordic region but the commitment to quality and service has not changed.
