Top Reykjavik Sightseeing Tours - page 4

Did this horse riding experience on my last full day in Iceland after an amazing 13 day trip. Friendly horses, all safety was reviewed & guides were terrific with checking & then re checking our saddles, reins etc before return ride back to farm. Beginner friendly rides. Nice slow pace for those that need and a little quicker gait if out in front. I will say I was impressed over safety checks & making sure everyone was in correct helmet sizes, horse size & temperament etc Tour is only about 2hrs and that is a perfect little 1 1/2 hr ride with a transport van for the 15/20 mins drive time from Reykjavik. I haven't been back on a horse in quick a few years and I was completely comfortable doing this tour. I was orginially going to do this when I first arrived in Iceland but decided to do at end of my trip instead and glad I did as my butt bones were a bit sore the following day. It is a nice little walk through the country side, seeing the lava rock up close. The guide stops at that location and does free photos on everyone's camera for you. After the tour you are offered tea & coffee for those that wish. You can definitely tell these ladies are dedicated to their jobs and are very protective, passionate and proud of their beautiful horses. Great day. Fun little tour. Terrific guide riders. Beautiful horses and Amazing scenery. Thank you for this great experience!

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!

Our tour guide was amazing. He was so knowledgeable. You could tell that he is very proud of his county and heritage. Our group was small, a total of 3. I was traveling with my adult daughter. There was one solo traveler with us. She was the one that asked most of the questions and he had an answer for every question. It was our second time to Iceland. We decided to do a walking tour this time. There is more to Reykjavik than the Rainbow Road. I took note of his name in my phone but not sure if it did auto correct. I have his name as Binary. If that is wrong I am sorry. Tall, very long dark hair. I am not sure if it was his great grandfather, or another relative, that was confronted by the only polar bear in Iceland. That was a great story.

Great introduction to Reykjavik. We booked this during our 6 hr layover and it was perfect to see the highlights of town in a quick manner. The walk was mostldown hill and ended 20 min. Walk from the main bus terminalso we just walked back to it. Thor was very nice, informative and entertaining. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful experience today on the Golden Circle tour in Iceland. Our tour guide, Darren, was so very interesting and did everything to make our day one of the best tours we have been on. We enjoyed every moment of his commentary, his knowledge and stories which entertained us throughout the day.It was a long, exciting day and every stop we made was better than the last. Cannot say enough positive words about our experience! Thank you, Darren!

The host was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone had the best possible experience. The group was respectful, welcoming, and well-paced throughout the day. At every stop, our guide took the time to thoughtfully explain the history, geology, and significance of each site while still keeping us on schedule. What really stood out was the attention to detail—he even showed me the best way to film the geysers in slow motion and shared photography tips that made a huge difference. It was those small, thoughtful moments that made the tour feel personal rather than rushed. You could tell he truly cared about making sure everyone had a memorable experience, whether that meant answering questions, helping with photos, or making sure we had enough time to take everything in. I absolutely recommend this tour. It was informative, well-organized, and one of the highlights of my trip.

The seats were comfortable for the experience, only 2 rows of seats so no issues being able to see, the captain and the guide were friendly and knowledgeable. The guide took her own pictures for us so you could enjoy seeing the whales and not worry about snapping photos

What a great trip to see some of Icelands best sights. Lots of interesting commentary from the driver throughout. Extinct volcanic craters, geyser, waterfalls, geothermal park and all on the tour. The highlight though was Hvammsvik geothermal pools, a 2 hour stop that will last in my memory for a long time. Don't forget to have a quick dip in the ocean as well!
