Top Iceland Bus Tours - page 3

My 12 year old and I loved this adventure. Finding the bus was super easy. Everyone was very friendly. Our tour guide was not only informative, but had a GSOH. The cave was stunning. I’m so glad we visited in the winter as the snow was expansive and beautiful to see on our journey to and from the cave.

Your only concern is getting to the BSI bus terminal. You get there, your work is done. Reykjavik Excursions is a well oiled machine. Keep your eye on the timetable for your scheduled bus to the Golden Circle and don't forget your bus number. The drive out to Thingvellir and back from Gulfoss are the longest legs of the trip. Plan accordingly. Those seven hours go by quicker than you think, so savor every minute of them.

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.

We had an amazing day on this trip, all of the places we visited were good, especially the Secret lagoon, the waterfall was brilliant. A big thank you to Tomek the bus driver who made it a very smooth ride and coped better with an icy car park better than anyone here would ever do. Our guide Gergo was very informative and fun, would love to return to Iceland and maybe do another trip with Bus Travel Iceland, very organised.

Very lucky we had EVA as guide. She compensated, by far, the extremely adverse weather conditions we faced throughout the whole journey. Joyful, funny and energetic made us appreciate the scenery, history and traditions. Kept us informed about weather and actions to be taken to ensure our safety.

Excellent schedule. Justin managed to fit so much into the tour without us feeling rushed. It was all really well judged and organised. We enjoyed the commentary - just the right blend of entertaining and informative. The bus was comfortable and the sights we saw were all spectacular.

I had some initial misgivings about the tour but it was fantastic. Ebbi, our guide, was incredibly enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and just fun. He was a great story teller and is passionate about his home. Late in season, we still saw plenty of puffins.

Despite the weather was not the best, the experience itself left me wordless, we saw minke whale and humpback whales, the guide was very professional, explained a lot about them. She knew not only about whales but also how to handle people with a sea sick on the board.
