Top Reykjavik Bus Tours - page 28

Did this tour with Simon, aka The Spicy Viking. Despite the lousy weather today we had a lot of fun. The sites were great, Simon was very knowledgeable and by far the most entertaining tour guide we have had over the past week or exploits around Iceland. Would definitely recommend this tour and if you get lucky enough to get Simon as you guide / driver you have won the lottery. He'll play for you his "rainy day" playlist and/or the "Iceland" playlist...both fun.

Our guide and driver (Pétur) was wonderful and efficient. He told us just enough facts and history without it being overwhelming, made it fun and easy to understand (even our 8-year-old said, "I like him! He's good!") for the whole family. We were a smaller group, which we also appreciated, and that helped keep us on schedule and even get a bit more time in certain places to enjoy the wonders of Iceland. Thank you so much for making it a special tour!

Great insight into the history of Iceland. Luca was a great guide and knowledgeable of the city. He pointed out buildings and was able to let us know their background and historical significance. Gave us recommendations for restaurants in the area and his favorite museums to visit. Another wonderful tour by Viator.

We saw so many impressive sights that I hardly know where to begin...but just know that Iceland's South Coast is dramatic and fascinating!...the glacier, the black beach with the monoliths off shore, the powerfull waterfalls, the tons of sheep, cows, and horses along the way....the enormous mountains on one side with the water on the other side. Old man Flosi was a terrific tour guide. What a day!

Our tour guide Lasma was amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable. When she dropped us for our snowmobiling part of the trip, she ended up waiting several hours more for us because our off-roading truck got stuck in snow for a couple hours. Our driver Jon was great. Smiled and laughed whole time. The snowmobile guys still took us out. It was raining and visibility poor, but our whole group still had a blast. Highly recommend.

We booked the tour last minute as the weather finally cleared up. I was worried about a very late night reading some other reviews. We got picked up promptly around 930. Initial part of the night was a bit slow but when the lights started coming out, they were spectacular. The guide was very knowledgeable and above all, very patient in taking our photos. And these are so much better than what I took on my phone. We were back by about 12 pm. Highly recommend:

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.

This was an amazing experience! Luck was with us, and we began seeing the lights shortly after leaving Reykjavic. Our guide knew just where to go for viewing, and was very informative with great info all night long. The bus was comfortable. All in all one of the best experiences of my life!
