I am an Icelander and I really appreciate this video; especially the safety part of it. It is extremely important. It is so sad when our visitors come to harm. Be prepared and please be careful.

[@IcelandwithaView]

I always promote safe and responsible tourism to Iceland, I think it's so important to respect the beautiful land!

[@craigroberts1670]

Someone told me the Icelandic language is the most complex and difficult language HANDS DOWN., I also heard about a man who is called a Savante - kinda like Rain Man. He was challenged to go to Iceland by the local university and show how fast he could learn it. This is unbelivable but apparently true: He learned to speak Icelandic fluently in TWO WEEKS. I need to know if this is true!!!

[@kissanruokaa]

Im moving to Iceland in a month to work in the fishing industry, and i appreciate your country so much :) Im coming from Finland :)

That’s a problem with this channel. The important stuff always take too long to start!

I am leaving for my first trip to Iceland on Monday and so I have been watching your videos all day today to prepare! Thanks for making your videos so fun and informative. Much appreciation coming from Seattle!

So happy to help, have a great trip!

How was your trip?!

I'm glad I found these videos because I'm flying there Monday!

How is your trip?!

[@gregoryking4796]

Amazing! I literally just woke up in Vik and going for a jog on the beach now! Might be the most beautiful piece of land I've ever seen

[@bbbb6066]

Iceland does not need to be expensive. Guesthouses are reasonable. lunch at a bakery. All you can eat soup and bread is 11 dollars. Dinner is a sandwich and a side. Breakfast is at your guesthouse. My wife and I will be going to Iceland for our 7 th trip. Do get a 4 wheel drive car even if you do not go on any f roads. A lot of roads in Iceland not paved. I will be in Iceland 10 weeks and my wife 4 and then my brother. Group travel is more fun. My plan is that if there is a road and you do not know where it goes take it. Be surprised. It is often worth the extra time. Get away for the capital area. I can go for 20 or 30 minuets without seeing another car away from the city. A lot of bridges and tunnels are one lane. Be polite as others in Iceland are. If you can get out of the car and hike. My longest hike lasted 12 hours and it was a tour. And is was the most difficult hike that I ever took. But it was worth every second. Enjoy. Ben

[@IcelandwithaView]

Great point Ben, thanks for all the helpful tips!

[@abetlewwiroqw8422]

I just went ahead and looked at their online menus for restaurants. I'd say most restaurants are about 1.5x the price of my location. Good ball park estimate. Also as in most European countries tipping isn't really expected but a compliment unlike the US where it's expected, so that changes the overall price, too.

[@MrDunger99us]

hi, Ben, you reccomend 4x4 at all times? My plan is to visit Dettifoss from Reykyavik, and then vik and Hekla and also those peninsular she mentioned in the vide- do i really need a 4x4? i am only going to saty on the main roads :)

[@terryburrow6129]

I love your videos. Sometimes they are more entertaining than regular TV. I may be watching too much though. I'm a Physical Therapist and I've been noticing that more and more when I start someone's treatment I'm saying "Let's get into it".

[@IcelandwithaView]

🤣this just made me laugh out loud, thanks Terry! The real problem would be if you start calling your patients "Team Iceland"

[@petercdowney]

Also many Icelanders go to Britain to study. Which makes their English even better.

[@BryceChristopherHodge]

I so wish I'd seen this video before going to Iceland last week--great tips! My biggest complaint of my whole experience is that there was NO SIGNAGE that we saw warning travelers that that downed WWII aircraft was nearly two miles away from the parking lot. And I realize this is a very minor complaint. I loved Iceland! But such a long hike in such a freezing cold and windy remote landscape could be very dangerous.

[@KiddyAmunda]

There is probably no signage since you were trespassing on somebodies land and every now and again there are news about the landowner trying to close of the area for trespassers (tourists) and it is always ripped down again.

[@BryceChristopherHodge]

Makes sense.. though when we were there the parking lot and gate seemed deliberate.

[@fkurevija]

I was recently there and the lot and gate are definitely deliberate. I also remember seeing one or two signs indicating distance/walking time, but they were easy to miss. From the reading I did, I learned that the road used to go all the way to the wreck, but in an attempt to help preserve the landscape the landowner setup the lot by the road and turned the old road into a walking path. Inconvenient, but preservation often is.

[@immulldaslicht4101]

Hey, I have got a question: I am going to travel iceland for 3 weeks without a car, only my backpack and I. So I am dependent from public bus trafic. Is it possible to do the ring road by public bus transport and hopping from station to station? Thanks a lot, your videos really helped me. :)

Hi, I am planning a trip to Iceland right after Christmas '18. Realistically, how far can you drive in a few hours during the winter? I have a basic itinerary planned, and the distances do not seem that far apart (1-2 hours) , and what services are open on new years eve, New Years Day and so on?

[@brittneynielsen6032]

Hello! My husband and I are planning on camping around Iceland in September. Do you have any camping tips or apps you could share with us? This is our first time traveling to Iceland.

[@qraza1]

Hi I'm travelling to iceland for the first time in December (14th for 3 nights) I've been watching your videos and they are amazing and so helpful. My question is given that there is only 4 hours of daylight at the time I'm visiting what tours would you recommend. So far I've got northern lights and golden circle tour and south beach (vik) and like the idea of visiting an ice cave. Would there be any point in visiting the ice caves when it's dark? (During the daytime) due to the long periods of darkness? If you could recommend anything else that would be greatly appreciated!

[@skyeangel07]

Thank you for your video. When it comes to cash for showers, laundry, tipping, etc. what would a safe amount to have?

[@glynethadavis7067]

Good Information. Thanks I’m going to Iceland for the first for Mother’s Day weekend from Thursday-Thursday. I’m trying to figure out what type of clothes to take with me. I’m meeting my sister who’s from San Diego and I’m traveling from Memphis TN.

[@meghanfitz-james49]

Fantastic and helpful stuff! I am planning to cycle in Iceland starting at the end of May and for one month. My question is about camping. I will be bringing my own tent but to be honest I am reluctant about booking a camping spot ahead of time in case I cannot cycle to the intended campground. Can you tell me whether campgrounds typically have space for cyclists there without reservations?

[@tekh07]

One day I hope to visit Iceland -- So many natural wonders! I've been reading the Poetic Edda, and am fascinated by Norse Mythology, I hope to find a destination where like-minded people gather to experience the old ways. Listen to story tellers. I would imagine there must be a "Viking mead hall somewhere on the island. On a side note, you're very beautiful :)

[@DaisyRiveraMuzzio]

We are planning a 7 days trip to Iceland at the end of May beginning of June and will be covering the south of Reijavik. We rented a car and booked the hotels, except of for one day that we are still undecided if we should go to the Islands or the highlands or to the west. Questions : 1) what would be best to do on that extra day: west. Highlands or the Islands, 2) do we need to make reservations to go the touristic attractions ? 3) Alhough we feel comfortable driving ourselves ( a private tour was way too expensive) , we would like to hire a tour guide when visit the attractions to learn about each place. Is it possible to hire a tour guide even when we do not need the transportation? and if so how do we do it?

[@IcelandwithaView]

Hi Daisy! I'll try to be concise in answering all of your questions but you may find A LOT of helpful information (and more!) on my website ~ icelandwithaview.com ~ 1) My recommendation is West Iceland: Hraunfossar, Barnafossar, Into the Glacier, Krauma Spa // 2) You do not need reservations for many of the tourist attractions, however, you will need reservations for certain restaurants/dining experiences, lagoons, and tours/excursions (like glacier hiking, ice caving, horse riding) // 3) I am not aware of any tour guides that will meet you on site for general sight seeing, however, you can book a walking tour of Reykjavik with a guide, and you'll have a guide for excursions (like glacier hiking, ice caving, horse riding). Guides for places like the Golden Circle and the South Coast are usually only provided when you book a day trip with pick-up in Reykjavik // You can browse and book tours here: icelandwithaview.tourdesk.is/Tour

[@mareilysm.m.6645]

Can you rent a camper van and then if one day you want to experience a hotel or specific guest house, also do it ? Like drive up to the accomodation in your camper and stay over night? Also what is better a camper or a motorhome???

[@IcelandwithaView]

Of course! Sometimes a girl just needs to sleep in a real bed! Parking your campervan at a hotel/guesthouse should be NO problem. Regarding a campervan or a motorhome... it depends on your preference and experience with both. A campervan is easier to drive because it is generally smaller and narrower but it's also less equipped with comfort stuff.

[@mareilysm.m.6645]

@@IcelandwithaView Can you drive up to Reykjavik and explore the city with a campervan? Like, for example, let's say it is my first day in Iceland i pick up my camper and I head over to the city to explore it. Can I park my van at the local city parking lot to explore the shops without getting a ticket or even visit the blue lagoon and park it at the parking lot while I am i finish my blue lagoon visit? Also, I searched happy campers for our time there and most campers are all booked, is there another local company that is comparable to happy campers that you would recommend and use yourself? Do you recommend buying the camper card site ahead of time or just paying right there and then when you get to the campsite? Also, I am traveling the very last week of April into the first week of May, do you think I should rent a 4x4 camper or a FWD would be just fine? I ask because you said in some of your videos that the weather can be unpredictable and that we could experience ice and snow, in that case wouldn`t it be safer to get a 4x4 camper ? I appreciate your experience and responses !!! Thanks in advance!!!

[@aurorecaron6282]

Hi Jeannie, Is there any coach service in Iceland. In UK we have National express which is a coach service runing between the "big" cities. Is this something I can find in Iceland, please?

How expensive is expensive? Different articles I read give me different answers. If I’m visiting frm NYC is it just as expensive or a bit more?

Good question! I suppose it's matter of perspective, some travelers may find it expensive, some may not. I'm sure it mostly depends on what you are accustomed to.

[@GrandMar7]

We are taking our 10 year grandson to Iceland this July. He is interested in geology. What are the best places to visit for an adventurous 10 yr old?

[@IcelandwithaView]

I would say the Snaefellsnes peninsula and the South coast - FULL of things to see!

[@FreedomofSpeech865]

This was very informative, not really understanding the criticism. I visited Iceland this past May. We did it on a budget, rented a reasonable priced airbnb. Cooked all of our meals, brought groceries in a carry on bag to save in cost. We packed sandwiches everywhere we went. (People take your garbage with you and dispose of it properly! ) I could not afford to rent a 4 wheel drive, a tiny little car took us around the Golden Circle, no problem at all. They tried to sell is sand and ash insurance in May, not needed. Do your research. With regards to safety, we drove quite a bit to visit a black sand beach that was closed 😕 we then looked up some videos on KZbin. My goodness, some of those beaches can be dangerous!

[@IcelandwithaView]

Is it easy to get a laundry to wash clothes? Should I pay for that in cash?

Hi Jeannie! I don't know Icelandic language, but to explain the double L, do you remember Sid the Sloth in the animated movie Ice Age? Shid the Shlothsh. That's what the double L reminds me of. :) Hope that helps some people!

[@bluecheese20401]

The number 1 thing you need to know is that the prices are nuts for some things...most things and good for others. I was sorta left wondering what sort of salaries Icelanders take home cause it must be pretty nice given the cost of living.

[@yaraberger5449]

Is it possible to do the ring road without a 4WD? And we also want to go to „little island“ (kirkjuefell) and this is not the route nr. 1 (I think its nr 54 & nr 56) and I can‘t really find any information. Can we drive this route with a 2WD? thx for al the tips😊

[@KiddyAmunda]

You don´t need 4WD to drive the ring road, only if you are driving off road and driving off road is illegal anyway. Kirkjufell is in the northern part of Snæfellsnes and there is a fine road to there (don´t know what little island is referring to since Kirkjufell means Church mountain in einglish).

[@IcelandwithaView]

Kiddy's info is correct - you don't need a 4wd to drive to Kirkjufell or the ring road, but I always suggest a 4wd if you're traveling in the winter.

[@andrinereyes1205]

Hi, can i stay at your home ? I will be visiting in may 2019

[@dactylntrochee]

Re: the difficulty of language, I'll take no issue with you BUT, have you taken the time to learn any songs? (Just a dozen or so. Learned by cold muscle memory, even before you know what they mean.) The right choices (ask a local) can probably give you tons of recombinable sentences with all the grammar built in already. Once you know 'em, you can mix-n-match them with any new vocabulary you learn. And, of course, if you get them right off records -- and use your ears more than your eyes -- you'll get close to all the odd sounds without converting from what you [think you] know already. It might not work for everyone, but every opera singer I know (and I know a few) can manage in Italy, Germany and often France or Russia, since they've usually done a whole show or two in one of those languages. It worked for me as a kid, too. I'd love to take a ukulele to a bar where there's a band playing, and ask the members to teach me a lullabye. It might even have a recognizable melody, since it's west European, and melodies travel fast and easily. Good substrate to lay your words over. If you never tried it, give it a shot and let us know how it went. On the money front: is there any talk of Bitcoin there?

[@daggadiva]

I live in Akureyri in Iceland

[@disa08]

Go shopping in "Bónus" that's kinda expensive

[@lugubresz]

Love your blog and already used the discount code to book a Blue Car Rental for the summer trip. Is it possible to fill up water at the gas station? I heard from travellers who've been Iceland that after Vík one should buy bottled water as the gas stations are mostly unmanned from that point onward. Where else can you fill up water apart from before you leave your last accommodation? We won't be doing much hiking as it's only about 3-day trip.

[@IcelandwithaView]

It is true that most fuel stations will be just a pump. Some gas stations will have water to fill up, but there are SO many streams that you will see - so pull completely off the road and fill up in a stream!

[@lugubresz]

Thanks Jeannie. Stream it is.

[@gunyjorunn9692]

No.. no bears. A few polarbears have come over from the artic when the Ice has melted and landed somewhere on the north side, but that is very uncommon, like 3 in my 35 years! There are foxes and minks in the mountains.

[@Elisaapeturs]

The volcanoes it's like you know before volcano and it's child in the news then everyone knows and yeah it's like that so you don't need to worry about it but yeah it's true it's really much of a waterfalls and yeah you need to be careful about them but you don't need to worry about the volcanoes but yeah it's true what you're saying but yeah
