Dear Berniece,
We wanted you to know that we had a wonderful trip to Iceland this past week. Everything worked out perfectly, and we were very happy with all the bus transfers, our hotel, and the day excursions.
It's a wonderful place, and we appreciated all your efforts to make it a great experience for us.

Best, Karen Ross

We had a GREAT trip! Thanks so much for all your assistance in making it so special.
We commented often on how much we appreciated the central locations and/or the remarkable views from our hotels.
Only two slight glitches along the way. First was the Flam railway - because the train was late leaving Oslo, we missed the train we should have taken to Flam. This caused a delay and overbooking of the train we ended up taking. No one’s fault, just an annoyance. Nice views, but we were jammed in like sardines and didn’t have time to do anything more in Flam than run for the boat they were holding for us.
A real highlight of the trip was travelling on the Hurtigruten to the Lofoton Islands and our beautiful little fishing village in Svolvaer! A destination we would not have found without your help. But then there were the glaciers, Bergen and Balestrand … Hard to choose a high point when there were so many.
To summarize, a good time was had by all! Our documents arrived as promised in Stockholm and we’re so very pleased with all the arrangements.

Berniece,

We are back from our vacation.

Your arrangements for the tour Oslo-Balestrand-Bergen-Oslo was wonderful – everything was in place including the weather.

Many thanks for a perfect holiday. I hope to use the services of Scantours in the near future and I would certainly recommend it to my family and friends.

Regard

Hi Berniece,
We LOVED Iceland!
We want to go back next year, with the side trip to Greenland.
My cousin gets her vacation schedule in October, so then we'll
know the date to reserve.
I climbed half way up a volcano on the Westman Islands!
We climbed up the hill to the Perlan from our hotel every night in Reykjavik, great
location for the hotel.
We had a wonderful time in the Blue Lagoon!
I could sell trips to Iceland!
And we saw hundreds of puffins! I love them.

Hi there!
Everything was wonderful. All the hotels were great in Denmark. The voucher system was fantastic. It was so easy to just give a voucher for everything including the ferry and the toll bridge. Scantours did a great job. The cruise was fantastic and we have the certificates to prove we crossed the Arctic Circle. What a wonderful experience for the whole family. Jasmine, at age 2, was a great traveler much to our surprise. Everyone on the cruise ship knew Jasmine and loved her. Especially after Esther bought her a little Viking helmet and she wore it to dinner one night! Everyone wanted her picture in the huge dining room. It was so fun. Loooong flight home yesterday, but all our flights were on time or almost on time so that went smoothly too. Jasmine was great on all her planes rides and they were her first ones.

The car you got us in Amsterdam with limo link was perfect. They were on time and we had no problem getting off the ship early. Glad we left on an early flight because we had more time in Copenhagen. Jasmine loved Tivoli and we were able to see it that afternoon and had dinner there. Really loved seeing Aero, where Ken’s grandparents were born. The little town of Aeroskobing is picturesque and peaceful. Found most of the relatives houses. What a treat to see! Would love to go back there someday.

Thank you for all you did, it was a great vacation.

Hello Berniece.....
I heard from the Lorenz party!
They sent me a lovely thank you note raving about everything they did in Norway....
They especiallly loved the fjord trip and the Flam rail triip.
They said the Kvikne hotel was incredibly beautiful and the rooms in the old section made them feel like they were part of the fjord!
Thank you again for putting it all together!

Ulla,
Iceland was wonderful. Thanks for all your help on such short notice!
You are quite correct in that Iceland is getting much more popular; in 2003, there were 300,000 visitors while in 2013 there were 900,000.
The country is very unique with volcanos, geysers, lava fields, glaciers, and such an abundance of marine mammals and birds. We saw 4 kinds of whales (including a blue whale), two kinds of seals, and so many different types of birds including the puffins and arctic terns.
Not seeing darkness for 2 ½ weeks was quite an adjustment though.
The folks in Iceland are very friendly and everyone speaks English fluently. It was an extremely easy country to navigate.
We are so happy with what you were able to set up for us.
Thanks again!
Bruce
