The Baldur Ferry from the Westfjords to Snaefellsnes Peninsula with a Stop at Flatey Island

Great ride from West Fjords -- nice weather to stand outside with great scenery and enjoy time off from driving!!!

I highly recommend Guide to Iceland. Very polite and helpful staff! We booked a ferry ticket, but due to our own fault, we couldn't make it. The staff at Guide to Iceland easily helped us change our reservation so we could take the ferry on a different day (and in a different direction). I highly recommend it to everyone, and we will definitely use your services again! Best regards, Joanna and Marcin.

Everything is Good.

Cozy seat and you can take a rest.

This Ferry was supposed a scenic ferry. Unfortunately, our ferry date was a windy and rainy date so we did not get much chance to see the sceneries. Anyway, the ferry experience was good and the ferry supplied foods in reasonable price. We enjoyed the ferry and the process to get on to the ferry was simple and easy to follow.

We enjoyed the Baldur Ferry as a relaxing and scenic alternative to the long drive from the Westfjords to Snaefellsnes.

Nice and interesting ferry. Enjoy the views.

We loved every minute of it. The hotels were all great. Sometimes the itineraries weren't well planned in terms of driving distances, but that was only on a couple of days. In general, I think we would have appreciated even more suggestions and options. The main issue we had was the car that was rented for us felt very unsafe. It wasn't very sturdy on the winding roads with high winds. I wish we had been more informed in advance about road conditions, and given an option to upgrade to a sturdier vehicle.

Very punctual, and picking up the tickets was easy—you exchange them at the shop before entering the port. At least you don’t have to drive a long distance, and you can rest on the ferry. A good option for getting from the Westfjords to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula.

Our guide was just ok. When we received our itinerary we did not have reservations for one night. I called this to the guide’s attention and we got subpar accommodations at the Malahorn....not in Husavik where our guide information said we would be staying. In addition, we paid for quality rooms and I saw on the website that we were given comfort rooms for several nights. We made our reservation 8-9 months ahead and paid our monies. We should have been placed in quality rooms throughout the trip. We also paid extra for a car and hotel room on the front end. Our guide did not make the proper reservations so we had a hassle with Lava car rental upon arrival. Our guide has been in touch and refunded us for the car mixup.

The overall itinerary was excellent, except for the Husavik area. We used Rick Steve’s and Lonely Planet as well. We purchased a waterproof map which came in handy. I would recommend adding an additional night in the Aukeryi area. We were rushed.

We loved Iceland, the scenery was outstanding and the people were very friendly. Overall we had a good experience. I am not sure I can recommend Guide to Island to our friends, many of whom are looking to visit Iceland. We expected reservations to be made properly. If I had not read the itinerary and plotted our overnights we would have ended up without a reservation in the Husavik area.

We did not take the ferry due to change in plans. Was unable to get a refund due to less than 24 hr notice.
