What travelers are saying

"Our family of four, including two adult children, took the Bicycling: Day Trips to Paradise in Canada. This trip is entirely outsourced to the owners of the inn, there are no Road Scholar employees involved in the trip. Two of us have taken bicycle trips all over the world and the bicycling component of this trip was disorganized, haphazard and almost unsafe. We all filled out forms giving details regarding our bicycle fitting months before the trip. On the first day, the leader Stephen, went around the room and asked the same questions and said everyone would get fitted in the morning before we began the first ride. The morning brought a rack of bikes, all different types in various levels of readiness. There were road bikes, hybrid bikes, mountain bikes and e-bikes. The rides were all on paved surfaces and the mountain bikes were heavy and the additional suspension added weight. The bike I received had rust on the chain and rear sprocket. When I asked about it, was told they were waiting for another van to show up with tools and equipment. Once it arrived, they gave me the lubricant to spray on the rust. My wife’s bike would not shift into the high gear on the front sprocket. Instead of adjusting the derailleur, they suggested spraying it with lubricant. Our one son is over six feet and needed a larger frame bike, even though he detailed it in the bike form months ago, there was no bike to fit him. One of the guides, then went home and brought a larger bike that was a full suspension mountain bike for him. The bike was very heavy, hard to control on the road and he felt unsafe. After two days, one of the guides convinced Stephen that they could adjust a hybrid bike to fit him. Clearly there was no work done to prepare the bikes for the trip. Many of the bikes needed adjusting and all needed lubricant to function easily. For every day, there was a tray of snacks placed out for us to take along the ride. None of the bikes had any baskets or attached bags, so if you didn’t bring a small day pack, there was no way to carry the snacks. For lunch on the rides, they brought exactly one sandwich for each rider. Since most of us get hungry while doing a day of exercise, it would have been helpful to have a few extras. On one day, they ran out of sandwiches and one of the leaders that were riding with us did not get lunch. Do NOT take this trip if you are expecting it to be a bicycling trip. We have used VBT and Discovery Bicycle Tours many times over the past 25 years and they are excellent bike tour companies. Lastly, after sharing these details with Road Scholar after the trip, their response was weak at best. After doing the full reviews and having to call them, their response was to give us $200 credit after spending $8000 on this trip. Not only was that insulting, they assumed that I would take another trip with their organization."

What travelers are saying

"I waited 20 years for my dream trip to Scotland and Ireland and splurged $7000 on this tour. The second half of touring Ireland was great, the first portion in Scotland was horrendous. The tour guide for Scotland made sexual advances and inappropriate comments to me and I had to cautiously avoid him and stay with the group to not have any interaction with him. I also sustained an injury on the bus, caused by the driver, which I had to report to CIE myself. I filed a complaint with a CIE customer service manager when I returned and learned that another woman also filed a complaint regarding the tour guide (2 women from the same tour!) CIE has not responded from the initial report over a month ago and have DONE NOTHING!!! This sexual predator is still working as a tour guide for them which is a screaming indicator regarding the sexual harassment investigations and policy enforcement for this company. Beware if you are a single woman and are looking to book with CIE, there are better options and I strongly recommend you avoid this company!!"

"We have loved Gate 1 and always sing their praises. We've been on 7 tours with another one booked for fall. We were supposed to leave for Ecuador this week, however the country is in a 60 day state of emergency with the escape of 2 infamous gang members. Tourists are advised to stay indoors and there is a daily curfew from 11pm-5am. (our flight was to land at 11:15pm). Our trip included stays in 2 of the main cities of unrest. There have been shootings, car bombings, hostage taking, closing of embassies, and other countries issuing do not travel warnings. Other tour companies have cancelled tours or offered refunds or rescheduling. Travel insurance does not cover wars or civil unrest, but we are clearly afraid to go there. Both we and our travel agent have reached out multiple times with our concerns and asked if we could reschedule or get some sort of credit. We continue to get the same reply either in person or via email...Gate 1 has your safety as our highest priority and we feel you are safe ("they are not targeting tourists") and your itinerary should not be impacted. What? Their highest priority is $ and not our safety. There is no way that's the tour we anticipated. We cancelled the trip and took a 90% penalty, loss of deposit, and $276 airline penalty. It's a LOT of money, but we would have been terrified, and it's not worth getting hurt or worse. Sorry, but it's not the company I want to do business with in the future."

"Epic Journey to Africa with SmarTours Smartours was amazing in Africa. We had a great tour guide. 5 Star hotels and transportation. We embarked on many safari adventures across Africa. We had the incredible opportunity to witness the magnificent "Big Five" animals, including lions, rhinos, elephants, buffaloes, and leopards. We even had the thrilling experience of walking alongside wild lions and riding an elephant named Coco, accompanied by guides armed with rifles and shotguns for our safety, protecting us from lions, leopards, and poachers. Enchanting us with its grandeur, the mesmerizing Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and Zambia, known as the "Smoke that Thunders," captivated our admiration as the largest waterfall in the world. Embarking on a journey along the Zambezi River proved to be a thrilling adventure, as we came across the majestic hippos that call its waters home. Additionally, we were fortunate to behold the majestic Table Mountain in South Africa and set out to daringly swim with sharks. On our Journey to ALL 7 Continents, our travel experiences have taken us to incredible places all around the world. It is a matter of great pride for us to declare that we have traveled to every single Continent on Earth, placing us among a select group of fewer than 500,000 individuals throughout the entire span of human existence who have accomplished this feat. During our extraordinary journey spanning all seven continents, we had the incredible opportunity to visit remarkable destinations: - The majestic Grand Canyon. Flying over an active volcano in a helicopter and embraced the thrill of skydiving. Niagara Falls - We explored the historic remnants of the Berlin Wall and immersed ourselves in the charming atmosphere of Nyhavn and visiting The Little Mermaid. - In China, we marveled at the vastness of Tienamen Square and were in awe of the awe-inspiring Great Wall of China. We had the opportunity to visit the Shanghai Tower, which is the second tallest building in the world, and experience its impressive height firsthand. - Down in the Land Down Under, we indulged in the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef and enjoyed a memorable hot air balloon ride over the picturesque outback, where we even caught sight of kangaroos. We even partook in Cane Toad races. - We embarked on a journey to the mystical Machu Picchu, ventured deep into the enchanting Amazon Jungle, cruised along the mighty Amazon River, and admired the iconic Christ The Redeemer statue. We were fortunate to witness the breathtaking Iguazu Falls from both the Brazilian and Argentinean perspectives. Renowned as the second largest waterfall globally, Iguazu Falls captivated us with its sheer magnitude and natural splendor. - We braved the extreme elements of the coldest, driest, and windiest place on Earth—the untouched Frozen Tundra of Antarctica. We conquered the treacherous Drake Passage twice, braving the notorious Drake Shake and its towering 21-foot waves. It is renowned as one of the world's most perilous waterways. Exploring Antarctica provided us an opportunity to witness first hand the breathtaking ice formations, observe penguins, seals, whales and birds in their natural habitat. On March 17, 2023, at 3:45 pm, we achieved a significant milestone by officially landing at Orne Harbour in Antarctica, thus completing our mission to set foot on all seven continents. We had a heart-stopping thrill when our Arch-Nemesis, an Antarctic Fur Seal, nearly attacked us."

What travelers are saying

"I am profoundly dissatisfied with the level of customer service and information provided by this travel agency. Throughout the entire process, they have been unhelpful. Initially, they failed to inform us about all the necessary documents required for the trip, leading to a situation where we were unable to board our flight due to missing documentation, which was only discovered upon reaching the airport. When expressing this concern to WingBuddy, their response was that it was not their responsibility to inform us about such matters. Additionally, after being advised by them to book our own flight to Dubai and assured they would handle our return flight, we had to follow up with them multiple times to receive a response. Eventually, they informed us that we needed to purchase our own return flight, providing no assistance despite their initial suggestion. As a result, we incurred significantly higher expenses, paying three times the original cost due to WingBuddy's lack of information and assistance. Furthermore, we not only paid for the full package with WingBuddy but also had to cover the expenses for our flights to and from Dubai, as well as transportation to meet the rest of the group and entrance fees for attractions. Overall, I am thoroughly disappointed with the experience and strongly advise against booking with them."

"A Culture Trip curated trip is a must for anyone burnt out planning their own trips or going to a remote or unfamiliar area. Having a local insider was the highlight of the trip. From the moment we landed to the moment we had to go through security to leave, we were completely taken care of. Our insider gave us great recommendations for restaurants and was very adaptable to any situation that arose."

Blue Lagoon Tour Selection Trips

  • The number of guests allowed into the Blue Lagoon is limited per hour, so all of tickets to the Lagoon must be pre-booked. If you are on a larger tour of Iceland, your tour guide will likely do this for you, but be aware -- especially if you are visiting in the summer, these tickets can sell out months in advance.
  • If you decide to book a “standard” ticket to the Blue Lagoon, don’t worry, you can bring your own robe, towel, and flip flops.
  • Because the Lagoon is only 20 minutes from the airport, so many tours will include your trip to the Lagoon on your way to or from your flight. It’s a great way to unwind before a potentially long and uncomfortable plane ride.
  • If you want to take photos on your phone in the lagoon, bring a small plastic bag or a waterproof case.

Additional details

Blue Lagoon Temperatures & Weather

The water inside the Lagoon is usually between 98-104 degrees Fahrenheit, even in the winter, though it can fluctuate depending on the weather and the time of the year.

Outside of the lagoon, the area’s temperature is much the same as Reykjavik’s. This means that temperatures during the heart of the summer only reach around 55 degrees Fahrenheit on average. However, this doesn’t matter -- you will be nice and warm inside the Lagoon, the spa, and all of the attached buildings! There is also a low chance of rain year round.

What to Wear & Bring

If you don’t invest in one of the high end and premium packages, you will need to bring a few items along with you. For starters, you will need a towel. You may also prefer to bring a robe, sandals or flip flops, and moisturizer for after your soak. If you choose to get your hair wet, the Lagoon offers plenty of leave-in conditioner in its changing rooms, although you still may prefer to bring your own bag.

Blue Lagoon Tours

On your tour of Iceland, you will likely visit the Blue Lagoon. With that being said, one major point of confusion amongst tourists is that the Lagoon is in Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital, though that is not the trip. The Lagoon is about a 45 minute drive outside of the city, though your tour will likely provide transportation to and from this location.

If you are on a guided tour of the spa, you can expect to be given plenty of free time to enjoy the lagoon at your own pace. However, the lagoon is also a popular place for many guides to delve into Iceland’s ingenious use of and reliance on thermal and reusable energies. The depth of this explanation may vary, though if you are really interested in clean energy, consider going on an eco tour of Iceland.
