My objective is to help Icelandic travel companies keep more of what they earn from their hard work
I want to help Icelandic travel companies minimize their booking costs. While the Icelandic travel industry has grown tremendously in the past decade, a large part of what local companies earn goes to fees for large booking sites. These fees can run up to 40% of the tour price. That adds up!
Creating a win-win situation for travelers and tour companies
I want to do things differently. Since there is only one of me and my overhead costs are low, I can help travelers save on quality tours and ensure that Icelandic tour companies keep more of what they earn. Unlike the big booking sites, I have no management or team to pay. And no investors are demanding a high return on their investment. It is just me working in my free time on a project that I enjoy tremendously.
If you book a trip using my promo codes, I will not receive an exuberant share of the booking amount. My share is only 5%. The travel company gives a discount which reduces the price for travelers. Often this discount is 10%, So the tour company typically keeps 85% of their cost, unlike the 70% left behind when the big booking sites have taken their share. That is a win-win for everyone.
Inspiring people to visit Iceland since 2012
Since 2012 I have helped people who want to experience Iceland plan and book their Icelandic adventure. I have interviewed dozens of travelers and local experts who have visited Iceland to get their unique perspectives and advice on traveling in Iceland. Since 2012, 800 thousand of people have sought inspiration from our articles on great destinations in Iceland.

Free Iceland Road Trip Plans
I have created road trip plans for the Golden Circle, the ring road, the Diamond Circle, and the South Coast of Iceland. We hope you enjoy a special section on how to travel to Iceland on a budget.
I live in Reykjavik, Iceland, with my wife, the renowned singer Hallveig Rúnarsdóttir. She was the singer of the year at the Icelandic Music Awards in 2013 and 2018. You can listen to her on Spotify and listen to an interview here.
So what do I know about traveling in Iceland?
We have been traveling (and hiking) for about twenty years since we hiked across Fimmvörðuháls in the South of Iceland in atrocious weather. Since then, we have traveled quite a bit in Iceland and worldwide.
Find the best things about Iceland from the locals
I love being out in nature, seeing the wide-open spaces, and getting away from the computer and smart devices that dominate our modern world. I am also a fitness freak and love the physical effort of a demanding hike. And yes, food tastes better outdoors somehow! I started this online travel magazine dedicated to Iceland in 2012. It combines my interest in photography (although I could be a better photographer!), traveling in Iceland, online publishing, and social media. Hallveig loves finding exciting things for tourists to do in Reykjavík and other places, be it concerts to go to (Icelandic musicians are some of the most exciting and innovative composers and performers around), exhibitions, or finding the only cabaret in town! We share our love for good food and local Icelandic beers and food.
From running this magazine, we had the great fortune of meeting many great people with one thing in common: They all love Iceland!
