Snorkeling Silfra

Country forums / Scandinavia & the Nordics / Iceland

Just curious if anyone has taken any tours to Silfra. I was looking at these two:

https://www.re.is/day-tours/gullfoss-geysir-snorkeling $280
vs
http://www.dive.is/diving-snorkeling-tours/snorkeling-day-tours/snorkeling-silfra-the-golden-circle-combo/ $370

I thought it would be nice to include the golden circle sights in the tour also..

I was wondering what the price difference is about? Seems like they both do the same thing.

There is this company as well - although I´m afraid I can´t explain the difference in price.

Here's the difference if anybody was wondering:

The snorkel portion is the same and operated by Dive.is on both tours.

RE's golden circle portion is cheaper because it is a larger bus/tour. RE's specialty is buses, so that makes sense. Dive's specialty is dives (obv).

RE drops you at dive.is and they complete the tour and drop you back in Reykjavik.
