Top Iceland Bus Tours - page 6

Lagoon experience was amazing. Bius Tickets - we and the transport staff were however unclear where to get paper/device tickets transferred but bus staff and lagoon staff proved helpful. It was unclear what the correct bus company was, even with barcode in hand. Some improved instructions on the confirmation would be useful but regardless, of the hiccup, staff were lovely and very helpful, it was an amazing experience once we got there. It would have only been better if the bus operators weren’t confused by whose bus we should be on. The confirmation didn’t state the bus company and provide the correct references. Both bus drivers were very confused. Paperwork info needs broadening to include bus company details in case of issue. So please check with the operator before you leave and get written confirmation details . We wasted a good half an hour - 15 mins both ends, with people not knowing if we were there customers. This meant we kept getting moved from one bus to another by drivers. It was slightly embarrassing.

We had an amazing day on this trip, all of the places we visited were good, especially the Secret lagoon, the waterfall was brilliant. A big thank you to Tomek the bus driver who made it a very smooth ride and coped better with an icy car park better than anyone here would ever do. Our guide Gergo was very informative and fun, would love to return to Iceland and maybe do another trip with Bus Travel Iceland, very organised.

We had a fabulous experience & saw so many sites that we wouldn’t have on our own - waterfalls, walking between the tectonic plates, craters … so cool! The inside tomato farm was a fun experience! The fresh scent of tomatoes, seeing the working bees & having lunch in this garden was fabulous.

Very lucky we had EVA as guide. She compensated, by far, the extremely adverse weather conditions we faced throughout the whole journey. Joyful, funny and energetic made us appreciate the scenery, history and traditions. Kept us informed about weather and actions to be taken to ensure our safety.

Excellent schedule. Justin managed to fit so much into the tour without us feeling rushed. It was all really well judged and organised. We enjoyed the commentary - just the right blend of entertaining and informative. The bus was comfortable and the sights we saw were all spectacular.

The tour operator responded promptly to questions regarding the meeting area. Our tour guide was fantastic. I just wish I remembered her name as well as our driver who was very good around the winding roads to the falls. She was very informative and had lots of stories. It was a rainy day and the hike up the falls was muddy and slippery. There are no hand rails. Bring hiking sticks if you have them. Only one person from our group hiked all the way up. The hike up was more challenging the higher you went. We stopped probably around the first overlook platform. But it was enough to view the lovely falls. The scenery on the way there and back was beautiful.

I had some initial misgivings about the tour but it was fantastic. Ebbi, our guide, was incredibly enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and just fun. He was a great story teller and is passionate about his home. Late in season, we still saw plenty of puffins.

Despite the weather was not the best, the experience itself left me wordless, we saw minke whale and humpback whales, the guide was very professional, explained a lot about them. She knew not only about whales but also how to handle people with a sea sick on the board.
