Akureyri in Iceland is a place to go

As a travel company that we are not familiar with and therefore had doubts regarding the delivery of our trip, including excursions, it is refreshing to say that the delivery was spot on. The flights, transfers, accommodation, food and trips were all great. Akureyri in Iceland is a place to go and it did not let us down with whales and the northern lights both being highlights.

Great Value Holidays were brilliant with all the admin for our holiday. All was sent to us via email in advance. Could check my account portal for updates.
I felt slightly uncomfortable with the fact no-one answers the phone when I called them between working hours Mon-Fri. But I really had no need to worry as I was calling just to check Great Value Holidays was legit. It is!!!

Excellent value Iceland package, smooth transfers, Northern Lights included, and a lovely hotel

We booked an Iceland package deal and it was great value. The flights with easyJet were decent, although the outbound was 3 hours late leaving, the transfers to and from Akureyri airport made everything really straightforward.

The package included the Northern Lights excursion and entry to Forest Lagoon, which was a brilliant add-on and definitely worth having bundled in. We then added the Lake Mývatn tour separately and it fitted in perfectly with the rest of the trip.

We also upgraded our hotel room for a sea view, and the hotel itself was really nice, great breakfast included every day, it was a great base and made the stay feel that bit more special.

The only small downside was the voucher system, which was a little clunky, but it didn’t detract from anything overall.

Would definitely use this company again.

Lovely room and decent buffet breakfast.
One minor complaint in that our room was above the gym, which opens at 07.00.
