Flights and transfers excellent

Flights and transfers excellent. Hotel quaint and very friendly staff. Rooms a little snug with no storage, so live out of luggage. Beds very comfy and you have fridge, safe and coffee

Trips very good with helpful driver/guides.
Be prepared for food and drink prices!

Akureyri Northern Iceland

Akureyri Northern Iceland
This short break on an easyJet flight from Manchester is a chance to see the “real Iceland” and the capital of Northern Iceland is a real joy especially during the winter months.
Stay at the Hotel Akureyri which offers spotlessly clean well located accommodation and a breakfast to die for.
That Skyr yoghurt and cinnamon buns-wow

Nice holiday and good value

We just spent 4 days in Iceland and enjoyed it very much. The package was good value, it included a northern lights tour and we experienced no problems. The hotel room was small but comfortable, we would have appreciated more space for our belongings. Breakfast had a variety of food and good coffee.

Akureyri in Iceland is a place to go

As a travel company that we are not familiar with and therefore had doubts regarding the delivery of our trip, including excursions, it is refreshing to say that the delivery was spot on. The flights, transfers, accommodation, food and trips were all great. Akureyri in Iceland is a place to go and it did not let us down with whales and the northern lights both being highlights.

Great Value Holidays were brilliant…

Great Value Holidays were brilliant with all the admin for our holiday. All was sent to us via email in advance. Could check my account portal for updates.
I felt slightly uncomfortable with the fact no-one answers the phone when I called them between working hours Mon-Fri. But I really had no need to worry as I was calling just to check Great Value Holidays was legit. It is!!!

Excellent value Iceland package, smooth transfers, Northern Lights included, and a lovely hotel

We booked an Iceland package deal and it was great value. The flights with easyJet were decent, although the outbound was 3 hours late leaving, the transfers to and from Akureyri airport made everything really straightforward.

The package included the Northern Lights excursion and entry to Forest Lagoon, which was a brilliant add-on and definitely worth having bundled in. We then added the Lake Mývatn tour separately and it fitted in perfectly with the rest of the trip.

We also upgraded our hotel room for a sea view, and the hotel itself was really nice, great breakfast included every day, it was a great base and made the stay feel that bit more special.

The only small downside was the voucher system, which was a little clunky, but it didn’t detract from anything overall.

Would definitely use this company again.
