We offer you a visit with an original Icelandic farmer were you will see his daily routine and participate if you like. Learn how agriculture was introduced to Iceland, where it came from, what grows in Iceland and the importance of it today. You can also enjoy having a meal with the locals, learn how to bake the traditional pancakes or kleinur.
- Meet the farmer and even join in on his routine!
- Have some hearty, traditional Icelandic foods...using only the best local ingredients and expertise. Depending on time and interest we could cook together.
- Drive back to your hotel...we can even think about enjoying some 'Opal' to wind down the day.

Traffic and weather, as well as time of year as the seasons affect what we may or may not have time to do at the farm
5000 Kroner - This is for any extra food or drink you wish to purchase to have with our meal. It's also a good idea to bring extra cash just in case you need a cab if I drop you off somewhere other than your hotel.

Guide services, transportation and arrangements with the local farmer...he will also provide you with some good work!

TESTIMONIALS
We found that Anna, it seems, knows nearly everyone in the area. Anna’s knowledge of her country is deep and wide ranging. She took us to her home by the river and we met her husband and were given a tour of her home. We can heartily recommend Anna to anyone seeking the services of a private guide for a small party. We are planning another trip to visit Iceland for a longer stay to explore other areas of the country. Bert & Lani Magnuson, Tacoma, Washington USA
