What people are saying about Hveragerdi

Very good guide who conveyed information in a funny way. We would recommend everyone to take the tour at 11:00 a.m. - so you can still see the national park afterwards.

We had an amazing time learning about the lava tunnel and seeing it in person. Truly amazing & our tour guide was very knowledge and super cool to talk to!

It's best to book the tour early in the morning, there aren't that many people there yet. A really great experience.

Very informative. Excellent guide, not too many steps so kids will be fine doing this too.

Great guide and amazing bit of Mother Nature on display. Well worth seeing.
