How to Spot Your Pick-Up

Because we value small groups, your vehicle will be a minibus (max 19 passengers), never a large bus.

  • The Vehicle: Look for a white or silver/grey minibus with the Arctic Adventures logo on the side doors.

  • The Guide: Staff wear clothing with our logo. If they are outside the car, they will hold a sign with the tour name.

Bus stop signs

You will find two different types of bus stops in Reykjavik, one is the authorized pick-up stop and the other is the local city bus stop.

  1. Be careful to look for the correct sign when going to your pick-up location.
