Josef Omarsson (Sales Manager) and Einar Davidsson (Business Development Manager) at Guide to Iceland accept the award for Iceland's Leading Travel Agency at the 32nd Annual World Travel Awards.
Guide to Iceland [https://guidetoiceland.is/] has been named Iceland's Leading Travel Agency at the World Travel Awards [https://www.worldtravelawards.com/award-icelands-leading-travel-agency-2025] for the eighth year in a row, reinforcing its position as the country's dominant force in tourism services.

High interest rates, tighter access to loans and a cooling labour market are the factors that will reduce demand. Supply, on the other hand, seems to have peaked and is likely to diminish over the next years – which should help stabilise real estate prices. A turn-around is expected in…
