Aloha from Oahu (Ko Olina) Tutuwahine!

Your name implies that you live in Hawaii. Might we be neighbors? We live in Ko Olina (Kapolei) on Oahu.

Hullo,

We will be visiting on the Jade on October 3/4 and want to visit Hallgrimskirkja. It's a bit to far for my 70 something mother to walk. When the ships are in town, are there any kind of shuttles or transport from Skarfabakki Harbour to the town center? Or are taxi's easy to get from the pier?

 

Thank you for sharing your expertise

I just saw a sentence in someone's post that they are card players but now can't find that post. If you are card players and would be interested in getting together for a game or two on Sea Days email me at beverly.munson@yahoo.com and we'll exchange information. If we don't play the same type of games, we're open to learning new ones!

In response to the post about people cancelling cruises because of concerns about Icelandic volcanic gases...we were just there and NO PROBLEM! The air quality was great and it is an amazing country to see. I urge you to go and enjoy yourself. I would strongly recommend the Golden Circle Tour. We went with Dooley Tour Guide (you can find him on Facebook). He did a great job. Have a great time!

Yes it is walking distance.

 

For our Golden Circle tour, we used David at Iceland Horizons. Great customer service, fantastic information (he's British, but has lived in Iceland for over 10 years), comfortable transport, etc.

 

For a one day visit with those goals, the Golden Circle is what you want.

Thank you -- this is very helpful!

We will be in Reykjavik one day and want to see as much as possible. Is the port where the cruise ships dock walking distance to town? Are there local tour companies you would recommend to see sights such as the Golden Circle (three waterfalls), Thingveilir National Park, and the Blue Lagoon? What other recommendations might you have for people who like waterfalls, mountainous scenary, and outdoor attractions?

Thank you!
