Affiliate disclosure
How Isnet makes money, which links earn a commission, and what that does and does not influence.
Isnet carries no affiliate links, no sponsored posts and no advertising. Nothing on this site earns money when you click it, and nobody pays to appear here.
Why this page exists anyway
Because the honest answer to “how does this site make money” is worth stating even when the answer is “it does not”. It also means you can read a recommendation here without wondering which link paid for it.
If that changes
Chiefly accommodation, car and campervan hire, and tours - glacier walks, whale watching, ice caves. This site carries no eSIM or connectivity links. If commercial links are ever added, this page will say so before they appear, every such link will go through a /go/ redirect tagged as sponsored, and the pages carrying them will show a notice next to the links rather than only in the footer.
How we choose what to recommend
Tours are assessed on whether the thing can be done safely without a guide, which for glacier travel and ice caves it cannot and for most waterfalls it can. Car hire is compared on what the insurance actually covers, since wind damage is the most common claim in Iceland and the cheapest policies exclude it.
