An amazing combo!
Benjamin was our guide in the cavern. He was very knowledgeable and personable, and kind of funny! We started off with the Safety video and got our helmet and went on our way. The tombs are absolutely amazing! It was very enjoyable, and I would absolutely recommend this tour!
The second part of our excursion was the snorkeling! Our guide was Nail(Argentina). She was very knowledgeable and explained the dive and the equipment to us very clearly. We walked down to the water and had our second dive review. When we were in the water, Argentina took photos of all of us that will be accessible to us later on online. The water at the dive site was crystal clear! I did have some challenges with the dry suit, however, overall is a fantastic experience. I would absolutely recommend this dive to anyone visiting Iceland! Hopefully you’d have the same dive guideI did Argentina!!

Amazing experience!
This was an amazing experience! I was originally worried about the cold, but it is so magical you don’t even realize. They instruct you on what to wear and what to do while snorkeling beforehand. I would recommend thin layers underneath the suit. We did not get wet except our hair and hands. Yianni was amazing and we cannot recommend him enough!!

Animal lovers must do adventure!
The horses are so friendly and gentle. I had no riding experience (other than a mule ride at a different adventure) and it was very comfortable and I felt very safe. My guides were wonderful and helped me great some great photos. I went at about 18:30 when the sun was lower in the sky so the lighting perfect. This is something I would do again next time I visit the island.

Amazing tour
Well worth booking. Andres coordinated with us in advance to make sure we had a high probability of see the lights, picked up us at our Arbnb (on time) and brought us on an amazing journeys to see the lights. He knew where to find them, and took great care of us.

This is my favorite tour...
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.

Freezing but worth it!
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.

Fantastic day with the best tour guide
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

Lifesavers
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.

Amazing tour, Bijarni is the absolute best
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 from an amazing company- highly recommend!
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.

Perfect way to end our trip to Iceland
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.
