Excursions and Travel in Iceland.

It is difficult to make plans about travel in a country you visit for the first time. Questions like: What does it cost? How distant are the places you want to see from the place you are staying? How do I get there? and many more like that. Iceland is one of those exciting places that tickles the curiosity but it is also a place well known to be horribly expensive to travel!! But ... Is it really so expensive? Since the crash this is a modified reality as in comparison the prices have devaluated by 40% at least against most currencies and that means that finally it is doable to travel in Iceland without losing an arm and a leg.

There are many ways of traveling in Iceland but most people that come here do so by bus. It is surely a convenient, somewhat crowded way but, and in my view, the second best choice. With the new era of crashed economy an option of travel in Iceland is getting a private coach with guidance. It is quite possible now to get affordable prices or even at the same price as the buses. One such agent is e.g., Choice Tours. Choice Tours mostly arrange tours around the South-West region of Iceland and take 1-5 persons at the time.

The most popular places to visit in Iceland are within the South-West region. It is an area of 120.000 km² or so which means most destinations can be driven to in a "day tour" and many of those destinations can even be compiled into a one day tour. Again Choice Tours, I found out, are more than willing to assist in such a compilation saving the traveler both time and money. I am sure there are others too that offer the same.
