Top Iceland Layover Tours

This is my favorite tour out of the 3 I did in Iceland. The snorkeling is magical and Lilian was the perfect guide. He keeps you laughing. The stops around the golden circle were well timed. The driver kept us very entertained with stories and history. Don’t miss this one.

Loved the experience but hated getting the dry suit on! It cannot be put on with gloves or mittens so your hands are frozen by the end of getting the dry suit on. The dry suit itself is frozen and difficult to pull up. Once you’re in the water, you actually feel warmer. It’s an experience like no other, to be floating between two tectonic plates! Our guide Marcin (funny guy) was always checking up on each and every one of us. At the end, I got a leg cramp and he helped me get to the exit dock. I highly recommend this tour but be sure to wear double thermals and double wool socks. I wish I had those little hand warmers and foot warmers for afterwards.

Outstanding tour guide. Andrea was so knowledgeable and personable. I read reviews stating he went above and beyond and he really did. We had a fantastic day. I can’t recommend Andrea enough. When we come back we will book with Andrea again. Thank you xxx

Awesome experience for a girls trip. Staff is friendly and ensure safety is important! Shout out to Piotr for saving my friend’s life - she started panicking with the mask on and he saw her right away, grabbed her and helped her calm down and breath properly with the mask on. Highly recommend ! Fun group of operators.

We absolutely LOVED this tour! The sites on the Golden Circle were breathtaking. Our tour guide Bijarny purposely went counterclockwise to avoid the crowds. We were SO thankful for this when we had places like Kerid Crater and Thinvillir Park to ourselves. He also took us to the "outdoor bakery" where they bake bread in the volcanic soil, explaining the entire process. While the sites are beautiful, it is Bijarni that made this tour amazing. Within minutes of meeting him, he makes it feel like you've known him for years. He is native to Iceland and one of the best story tellers I have ever met. I would take a tour with Bijarni that went no where, just to drive around with him and listen to his stories. We always book tours when we travel and Bijarni is the best tour guide we've ever had. When we go back to Iceland we will be sure to book all of our tours with Bijarni.

Unique experience in a beautiful national park. A great tour company and Dory was an amazing guide! Even though it was a daunting experience, she was kind, helpful, and accommodating. She made my grandpa feel comfortable and it was a great experience for all of us. And the hot chocolate was a sweet treat as well. The water was so cold but it was worth it. Would highly recommend this adventure and this group.

I selected this tour for my 12 year old daughter and myself because of the reviews and because it offered transportation from our hotel in Reykjavik. Simply put, it was wonderful. The guide was also the owner of the Icelandic horses. She cared for and knew each very well so was able to match us to horses that we would each feel comfortable on. She started by learning about our riding experience then selected horses for us and had us groom them to begin to establish a connection. The horses were very friendly and responsive. I've never had such a smooth, comfortable ride. We rode around the field and on a horse trail that ran parallel to the road. The guide took pictures throughout so we could just concentrate on the experience and safety. We got to trot and tilt and had a much more relaxed, comfortable experience than you get on the typical trail ride. I would engage this business again and after this, 'm impressed enough to want to come back to Iceland just to go on a multi day riding trip (tho that is not something she does. For us, having a taxi sent by the owner to take us from and back to the hotel was worth it as she is apparently sometimes not found on Google maps and more connection between her and the driver can be needed.
