Our Storytellers

Our storytellers are from all walks of life, with different backgrounds, interests, education, and knowledge. What they all have in common is that they enjoy receiving guests, telling stories, and educating everyone about the mysteries of Snæfellsness.

Here you can see short introductions to our storytellers. It is possible to contact an individual person to book a tour, but it is also possible to contact Sagnaseiður directly and we find the best person for the job at any given time.
