Ingó has worked as an adventure guide of all sorts for over a decade and is licensed to operate a great variety of outdoor activity tours. He always has a plan for exciting adventures along the way, and one of Ingó’s plan B is certainly going to be a treat. Ingó has spent the last 15 years exploring Iceland’s rugged coastline, discovering secret spots and finding new waves and adventures along the way. There is no person better equipped to run a surf tour in Iceland than Ingó Olsen.
