We arrive on the 16th - we're staying 3 nights at the Hilton. Planning an excursion to the South Coast & Thorsmork on Sunday and then a super jeep Golden Circle tour (with Andi?) on Monday. Now that we've received a pretty definitive indication from Mark Conroy about the sailing I will go ahead with booking the excursions.
We're picking up a car the morning of the 19th and exploring the Snaefellsnes Peninsula (west coast) for 2 days staying at the Hotel Budir then dropping the car and boarding the ship on the 21st.
For those who need transfers from the Reykjavik airport you may want to look at
Flybus which will drop you at your hotel for 2200 ISK, less than $20.
The Iceland krone had strengthened a bit in March but as of late has resumed its slide vs. the dollar, which is good news for all of us for hotel rates, excursions, etc.
We're flying home from London the afternoon of the 31st so we would like to share the transfer too Peggy.
