Hello! I’m a lifelong Icelander with a deep love for this land and a passion for sharing it with curious travellers. I currently live in Akureyri in North Iceland, but over the years I’ve lived in many parts of the country — from remote fishing villages to the lively capital — and that variety gives me a unique perspective I love bringing into my tours. My guests often tell me that my tours feel more like travelling with a local friend than a formal guide. I believe travel should be personal, memorable, and filled with moments you won’t find in a brochure — and that’s exactly what I aim to offer. When I’m not guiding, I’m out exploring, researching new stops, and refining my routes — so even returning guests discover something new. Whether you're visiting for the first time or coming back for more, I’d be honoured to help you experience Iceland in a way that’s meaningful, flexible, and fun. If you’re looking for a private tour with a knowledgeable local who’s genuinely passionate about what they do — I’d love to hear from you. Let’s make your Iceland trip unforgettable. - Licensed Professional driver. - First aid course and additional refresher courses at regular intervals - Fully licensed vehicle by the Icelandic Transport Authority. - Fully licensed Day tour provider by the Icelandic Tourist Board. - Fully licensed Iceland tour guide badge number 1159. - Thirteen years of experience in guiding

Overview of your Akureyri tour

Imagine a day in Iceland that unfolds entirely on your terms — no rigid schedule, no crowded sights, just the freedom to explore what calls to you most. Whether you’d prefer to chase the sun toward the east, discover quiet gems far from the tourist trail, or decide on the day depending on the weather and your mood — this experience is built around you. I’ll be your guide, your storyteller, and your local expert, ready with suggestions and insight to help shape a day that’s spontaneous, seamless, and unforgettable. From dramatic coastlines to tucked-away cafés, geothermal secrets to scenic mountain routes, your private journey can take any shape you choose — with me there to ensure every moment is meaningful, relaxed, and entirely yours.

Your Akureyri tour itinerary

Your Day, Your Way There’s no fixed route — only endless possibilities. This is your time to explore Iceland as it speaks to you. Want to take a scenic drive along the fjord? Hike a quiet trail with sweeping views? Stop for a dip in a geothermal pool… or brave a polar plunge? We can do that — and more. Whether you’d prefer a laid-back pace with time for photos and coffee stops, or a more active day of exploring hidden natural wonders, we’ll shape the experience together. I’ll offer suggestions based on the day’s weather, your interests, and my local knowledge — and you choose the direction. This isn’t just a tour — it’s your Icelandic daydream brought to life.
