What are people saying about Reykjavik

Karen_S, May 2026

Puffins, puffins everywhere

Prompt, professional, courteous, knowledgeable. The crew on board the boat was fantastic, well-versed in all things Atlantic Puffin (and other seabirds and wild life) and took some amazing photos on board, with a link provided. The tour was a less than 5-minute walk from downtown Reykjavik.

Lava Tunnel Tour Including Transfers from Reykjavik

Mike_S, May 2026

I "Lava-d" this half day trip

Excellent all around. Perfect pickup and transfers. Driver was safe on the road both ways (45 minute drive each way). Lava tour staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and kept the group safe the whole time. Everything was on time and excellent communication from booking to trip preparation and throughout the tour. Fun half day trip and well worth the cost.

Golden Circle & Secret Lagoon Small-Group Tour from Reykjavik

Amber_M, May 2026

Don't miss this one!

Amazing tour, very knowledgeable guide who spent every moment educating us about the geography, history and culture of Iceland. The sights were phenomenal, and after a long day of travelling it was great to soak in the secret lagoon, Icelands oldest natural pool. I will never forget this trip, thank you so much to our guide!

Northern Lights Small-Group Tour with Hot Chocolate & Photos

Shalini_M, Apr 2026

Don't miss it!

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:

Friendly, funny, amazing story telling, patient and easy to connect with immediately which is impressive for such a big group. Our driver Gregor drove us around safely and kept the bus comfortable and clean. Highly recommend this Golden Circle experience. I wish I could have Anna guide us around the entire country!

Perlan Admission - Volcano & Ice Cave, Northern Lights Experience

JESMALA_D, Mar 2026

Amazing Perlan!

The volcano 3D show- words are not enough to describe it...The Aurora show is OK Ok ,since I hv seen a real one in Rejkavick City itself,while walking out to buy some fruits...Museum provides you a knowledge about this stunning country...I wish to visit PERLAN again one day in summer.....winter time it's better to avoid travelling to Iceland if you don't have aurora in mind since it's extremely windy and temperatures go well below the freezing point..

Golden Circle and Kerid Volcanic Crater Small-Group Day Tour

Morgan_P, Mar 2026

Beautiful Golden Circle Tour with an Excellent Guide

We had an amazing time on the Golden Circle and Kerid Volcanic Crater small-group tour. Everything was well organized and the sites were absolutely beautiful. A special thank you to our tour guide, Mika. He was very communicative about pick up and kept everyone informed throughout the day. As we traveled from site to site, he shared great information and made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, the day was seamless and we had a fantastic time. I would love to do this tour again during the summer months to see everything in a different season. Highly recommend.

Observed the incredible tectonic rift at Thingvellir, the breathtakingly frozen Gullfoss waterfall, steam vents and geysers including Stokkur water spout and finally a relaxing visit to the world famous Blue Lagoon. Definitely recommended.

South Coast, Waterfalls and Black Beach Tour from Reykjavik

Fahad_K, Feb 2026

10/10 Highly Recommended

My sister and I loved this tour. Our tour guide was Gunnar, and he was incredible. We had a gas station stop shortly into the tour which allowed us to get coffee, a pastry and make a bathroom run. We went to Skógafoss, Vik, Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, Solheimajokull Glacier and then ended with Seljalandfoss. The itinerary felt well planned and I felt we had enough time at each stop. Vik is where we stop for lunch and there was enough time and food options. My only advice is dress appropriately, Iceland weather can be unpredictable.

The Golden Circle Guided Bus Tour from Reykjavik

RoopakDeepak_C, Jan 2026

Guide was exceptional

The Reykjavík tour company is amazing. Phenomenal tour and guide and driver were very good. They even went out of the way and did additional northern lights stop on their own initiative when it wasn’t part of tour. Very knowledgeable and clearly want Tourists to enjoy the experience
