Superb from start to finish! Everything ran like clockwork from the moment we landed and headed off to the Blue Lagoon for some spa time after the flight. The Bolholt Stay apartment check-in went without a hitch (brilliant that you can securely store luggage there if you arrive a little early or head away for a night like we did!). The apartments are small, clean and functional so don't expect 5* luxury but for a comfy and warm bed and hot shower they are spot-on. The fridge and cooking area are great for snacks although we ate out most of the time as there is a superrb little artisan bakery about 50 yards from the door (Braud & Co). The guided tours were excellent with a lot packed in and both the guides we had were funny. entertaining and informative and displayed a genuine care for their guests. All the attractions were all stunning (with a few small extra ones sneaked in) so difficult to pick a favourite but the highlights for us were the Glacier Lagoon by boat, the active geysirs and Skogafoss waterfall which is truly stunning with its rainbows. Also when spending time in Reykavik don't be afraid to sign-up for the Hopp scooters, a great and affordable way to get around, and we would highly recommend the Volcano Express experience at the Harpa music hall. It's not a long experience but you won't regret it!
