OUR MISSION
Pink Iceland strives to be the country’s foremost travel agent, tour operator, event and wedding planner for LGBTQI travelers. Our goal is to always offer an exemplary service, treating our guests with the utmost respect while offering a good quality product.
Pink Iceland has clear policies regarding its responsibilities to environmental and humanitarian issues. These are reflected in the services on offer and the general attitude of the company’s owners and staff.
Pink Iceland is, and will remain a beautiful, vibrant, fun and caring place of work where both owners and staff ambitiously work towards offering outstanding services to its guests
HONESTY POLICY
Pink Iceland is a privately owned company and as such it needs to make a profit. This profit pays the salaries of its staff, the rent, the wonderful and informative Pink Iceland website not to mention copious amounts of coffee for the owners. Most of Pink Iceland's money is made through commissions. This is how it works: If our guests let us book their tours, activities, and accommodation we collect a small (usually 10-15%) commission of the price. This basically means that you pay the same price, regardless of whether you book directly - or through us. You may think this might cause us to recommend really expensive accommodation and tours. Not so. We promise to do our utmost to come up with a plan that suits you, and your budget. We would never recommend anything without full confidence and/or personal experience of what's on offer. Our primary goal is working with and for the LGBTQI community and without the community's support or goodwill we wouldn't have lasted six months in the business. It is not least through word of mouth that we grow stronger every day. Our hope is that after reading this you too will ask for our recommendations and advice and/or book your holiday through us.
HUMAN RIGHTS
Pink Iceland is founded on the belief that more can be done to welcome LGBTQI visitors to Iceland. We strive to to offer the best available services to our guests, working with suppliers who respect and adhere to human and civil rights.
We at Pink Iceland have committed ourselves to contributing to LGBTQI communities around the world in whatever way we can. This has been done with monetary donations, education about what we've achieved in this country and how we went about it and through on-going volunteer work for Samtökin'78 the national LGBTQI organization in Iceland as well as Reykjavik Pride Week where we offer our time and expertise for various events and causes. We constantly revise our policies, processes and activities and actively work towards implementing these. Our human rights commitments may often go unnoticed but when applicable we update our audience about the work we undertake through our social media outlets and website.

OUR REPUTATION IS OUR MARKETING
"From the first moment I wrote Pink Iceland and heard back immediately from Birna, I knew we were in good hands. She was on top of all the planning details, offering various suggestions and options, responded in a timely manner and acted on our behalf with her colleagues in Reykjavik. The height of our trip was our wedding day where she arranged for 2 helicopters to take us on a 3 hour trip of this beautiful country and we 'tied the knot' at the foot of the most beautiful glacier..a truly memorable experience in making our day so special.... big thank you to the team that made all the planning so easy. "
Kind words for Birna:
Birna is born and raised in Reykjavik and has a bachelor's degree in nursing from the University of Iceland which can sometimes come in handy! She has worked with the LGBT community in Iceland ever since she came out, predominantly as leader of the local LGBT+ youth group. She also headed the Educational Program for the Icelandic LGBT+ Organization for years and has talked to thousands of youth about being queer, coming out and prejudice they might face. She has also worked with and for Reykjavík Pride for years. Birna is probably Pink Iceland's most quick-witted member of staff. Pink Iceland is lucky to have her and you will be lucky if you get to work with her!
