Icelandic Glaciers 🧊
An absolutely incredible and unforgettable experience on the Icelandic glaciers! 🇮🇸🧊 The landscapes were breathtaking, and exploring this extraordinary natural environment was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A huge thank you to our guide Otto, who was incredibly passionate and knowledgeable. He taught us so many fascinating things about glaciers, their formation, and Iceland’s history. His enthusiasm and clear explanations made the excursion both educational and exciting. You could really feel how much he loves his job! Having this excursion just the two of us, rather than in a large group, made the experience even more special. It was much more intimate and personal, allowing us to fully enjoy the scenery, ask questions, and interact with Otto. We will keep wonderful memories of this adventure. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Iceland, especially with Otto as a guide! Thank you for an unforgettable day! 🤍❄️

Just book!
We did an overnight tour with Otto to the south coast in March. The tour with Otto was awesome-fun, informative, and unique. Otto himself is a great time, he gave us history, played us Icelandic songs and showed us the best spots. I can’t recommend Otto as a tour guide enough- don’t think about it, just book! You won’t be sorry!

Otto the Viking and an incredible trip!
Our trip through Iceland was absolutely incredible, and a huge part of that was thanks to Otto the Viking. From the waterfalls and glaciers to the breathtaking landscapes in between, every day felt like something out of a postcard. Otto was a fantastic guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Iceland, its history, culture and landscape, but what really made the experience special was his personality. He was authentic, funny, engaging and made the entire group feel comfortable from the start. He had a great way of sharing information without ever making it feel like a lecture, and his humor kept us entertained throughout the trip. Iceland itself is spectacular, but having the right guide can completely change the experience. Otto made an already amazing trip truly memorable. Our entire group had a wonderful time, and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone visiting Iceland. If you have the opportunity to tour Iceland with Otto the Viking, do it. You won’t regret it.

The absolute highlight of Iceland
Booking a tour with Otto was hands-down the best experience I had in Iceland. I cannot recommend him highly enough to friends, family, and fellow travelers. Otto is a guide who truly goes the extra mile. When you travelwith him, you don’t just see the tourist spots, you see the real Iceland. ​He shared so many incredible stories from his own life and took us to stunning hidden gems we never would have found on our own. Beyond his incredible local knowledge, Otto has a massive heart and genuinely cares about everyone on the tour. If you want an authentic, unforgettable Icelandic adventure, book with Otto!

A great one day deep dive into the wonders of Iceland
I was lucky to spend 12 hours with Otto driving and hiking through the Southern Highlands. It was my second day ever in Iceland and it was an unforgettable experience. Otto packed us some wonderful snacks and lunch of delicious icelandic breads and meats and fish and off we went. He was engaging, knowledgable and very good at gauging my abilities to trek through interesting terrain. We covered a lot of ground and were greeted with great weather. Otto is charming, funny and knowledgeable and has a gentle but fierce spirit.

50 out of 50! Otto the Viking is the best
We hired Otto the Viking to guide our group of 20 around the South Coast of Iceland in December 2025. He was an absolute joy to lead us, filled with interesting facts and jokes. He is very knowledgeable, especially on the glacier hike, and we highly recommend him for your visit to this amazing country.

Don't miss the Northern Lights with Otto!
My family and I traveled to Iceland in March 2025 specifically to see the Northern Lights. We booked a trip with Otto our first night there so we had time to still look if he couldn't find them. There was no need. Otto was simply amazing and found the most spectacular Northern Lights I could have ever imagined. He also was able to provide guidance on the best way to photo them. His English is superb and he customized the tour however we wanted.
