Anne_B, Jun 2026

Great experience

This was the perfect way for us to go from the cruise ship terminal to the Blue Lagoon. The buses were prompt and easy to locate. The Blue Lagoon was fantastic, so relaxing and fun to do our face masks while enjoying a beverage. Definitely worth the price.

Highly recommend

Absolutely wonderful! Definitely walk around Kerid crater for all the views and take all the paths at Gullfoss waterfall. Every stop has spectacular scenery and you will continually take more photos as the views are all amazing. Our guide had so many stories about Iceland and growing up there and legends and myths, it was fantastic Loved the stories. Highly recommend

Reykjavik: Glacier Lagoon, Diamond Beach & South Coast Day Tour

Cynthia_L, May 2026

Truly need to prepared...

Truly need to prepared for wide weather deviation during this 14 hr trip. We had sunny warm weather and windy + heavy rain during different times of the day/location. Sights were well worth the long drive. There weren't as many icebergs in Glacier Lagoon as the photos depicts but it's still a rare sight that we appreciated. Being able to stand behind Seljalandsfoss for a photo was worth getting wet/soaked (due to the wind blowing the water towards the path you need to walk pass to get behind the Fall).

A great afternoon/ recommend

2 adults and 2 children aged 9 and 10 had a fantastic afternoon. We were fortunate to have good weather and throughly enjoyed the beautiful trail. All non riders, we had calm, lovely horses. The people who work there clearly love the horses and treat them so well. They were very kind and helpful and made the experience. We would all highly recommend.

Perfect City Overview

In a city never visited before, it was easy to find the start point. Our guide was waiting for the participants; he was friendly and approachable for conversation. The selected tour highlights were a perfect city overview. I was impressed with our guide's knowledge of both the history and the current city life. So much to see and learn, it was an excellent introduction to Reykjavik.

Airport Transfer: Keflavik Airport to Reykjavik Center in Iceland

Tim_F, Apr 2026

“ Convenient ”& “worry free”!!

The Iceland Bus Transfer is worry free option to get from the remote airport to Reykjavík. I’m from Southern California. The trip from Los Angeles to New York and from New York to Iceland is quite a journey. Not having to worry about getting into my hotel was a blessing. Having the transfer pre-booked was worry, free. After you leave customs and grab your luggage. The buses are conveniently located right outside. The the staff was very helpful and considerate, the buses were very comfortable, and again it was seamless and were free! I would absolutely recommend this service to anyone traveling in Iceland!

Great way to see Iceland scenery with a personal touch

Jon is personable, informative and accommodating. He will take you down some back roads to find the hidden side of Iceland. While there were only two of us, he can accomodate a larger group with a different vehicle. I have already encouraged my son to contact Jon and go with a group of friends.

Reykjavík Small group Walking Tour - by CityWalk

Stephanie_L, Apr 2026

Great tour to get to know the city upon arrival

I gotta say. This tour was amazing. I almost missed it because I did not hear my alarm but thankfully and coincidentally the tour guide called me (which woke me up) to change the time for half an hour later (which worked even better lol). The 2 hour walk along the city with the cold weather was super comfortable and we barely felt the walk at all. (So don't worry about it) Our guide Nory did an amazing job. He is so knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor which made the tour very insightful, interesting and very very fun. We learned a lot about Iceland, its history, the Reykjavik City, etc and even got a chance to run up to a few of the stores he recommended before our next tour (since we had the day fully booked). (We ate the traditional Lamp soup. Soo good) It was great that we booked this tour the second day of our stay because the day we arrived to Iceland we had no idea where to go, how to get by or where anything was. So, this tour first thing in the morning was enough for us to learn where everything was and what we wanted to visit. So much so, that there were places we needed to go for other tours and we were going to go by bus but decided to talk to the spots instead since we already got to know the area. I know for a fact that without this tour I would have never known where to go and would have missed so many fun and interesting places around the city. Thank you soo much! We had fun. Definitely will recommend this tour.

Food Fun

We had a great time with Bo as he walked us through Reykjavík sampling traditional foods and sharing historical and cultural stories about Reykjavik and Iceland. Bo made sure the various venues knew it was my wife’s birthday making the tour that much more special. We would definitely recommend the private tour with Bo.

Iceland's Golden Circle Self-Guided Audio Driving Tour

Leslie_M, Aug 2025

Would definitely recommend!

This was our second self guided driving tour and it was great. It’s a lot of fun to listen to the history of the island as you drive through and get the opportunity to stop and experience the landscape. We really enjoyed being able to stay in our own vehicle and stop as we wanted to without being on a bus tour.
