Full Refund / Flexible Cancellation Policy
No worries! We've got you covered if there are any changes to your trip to Iceland: it's always possible to either put your booking on hold (bookings never expire) or reschedule to your new travel dates. We also offer full refunds if you cancel your booking with more than 24 hours prior to your tour :) All bookings cancelled within 24 hours of the tour departure are not refundable.
What if I have dietary restrictions or allergies?
We do everything we can to accommodate all dietary restrictions and/or allergies :) We can easily arrange alternative options for our vegetarian and pescatarian guests and for gluten & lactose intolerants. Nuts, seeds, fruits & shellfish are also easy to avoid. If you have any dietary restrictions or allergies, please let us know in the 'special requests' section when you book and we will accommodate you the best we can! Vegans are more than welcome in our tour but unfortunately, the traditional Icelandic cuisine is not very welcoming for a vegan diet. Vegans can unfortunately not enjoy 90% of the cuisines in this tour.
Is everything included in the tour - or is the food cost separate?
Yup! Of course, everything is included in our tour. So, all you have to do is to show up hungry like a wolf and we will take care of the rest! We visit 5-6 of our favourite restaurants and taste many amazing local cuisines :)
How many guests are on each tour?
In our open Akureyri Food Walks, we always keep the groups at maximum 12-14 guests. We do this to make the experience as personal and fun as possible! For private groups we can accommodate larger groups, feel free to get in touch at akureyrifoodwalk@gmail.com.
Is it possible to do a private food tour?
Yes of course! it is of course possible to arrange a private foodie tour! Private tours are very popular with larger groups of friends and families. Simply press send us a quick email through the contact form below or directly to akureyrifoodwalk@gmail.com and we will be in contact with you.
Is there a dress code?
No, of course not! The only thing we recommend is dressing according to the weather so you won't get cold. Just don't wear crocs. Nobody should.
Where does the food tour start and end?
Our delicious Akureyri Food tour begins by the main entrance of Hof Cultural Centre, a big round building by the ocean, right in the heart of downtown Akureyri. Hof Cultural Centre is easy to find and very centrally located on Strandgata 12, 600 Akureyri. Hof is within walking distance from most hotels, hostels and apartments in Akureyri. For guests driving their own car, parking spaces are north and east of the building. Our tour always ends in the centre of downtown Akureyri. Just a few minutes walking from both our meeting location (Hof Cultural Centre) and most hotels in Akureyri!
How much walking is there involved in the food tour?
The walking distance in our Akureyri Food tour is approx. 2 km or 1,2 miles but it can vary between tours :) The tour is really easy as we are never walking further than to our next restaurant where we will sit down and enjoy a delicious local cuisine. Furthermore, the walking is usually slow paced as we are exploring the town as we go!
