“Apart from the madness of getting the coach ( there must be a better way). The actual tour was superb. The driver and guide were excellent, Jennifer was knowledgeable and as excited as we all were to see the lights. Although there isn’t a guarantee, the guide has a good idea and within 5 minutes of being in the National Park we stopped and spent 30 minutes watching the lights dance. Then moved onto another site with more lights in the sky. It’s a must do, and I’m not sure that paying more for a smaller tour would be worth it, the lights are there if they are there regardless…”

“Wasn’t really sure what to expect but visited here instead of the blue lagoon as we’d been told the minerals at the blue lagoon made your hair crusty! The lagoon is really warm and has pockets that are quite hot which was lovely. The 7 step ritual involves a sauna, a steam room and a salt scrub which left our skin incredibly soft. Visited with my husband and two grown up children and we were all so relaxed that we almost fell asleep propped at the edge of the lagoon! It was a lovely way to spend a few hours.”
