I traveled with my husband and friends. The pickup was seamless and our driver Izzy was so friendly and informative. He went the extra mile when responding to our questions and even added an extra stop to our tour. His knowledge base was awesome. The actual tour had stunning views and was worth the time and money. I would highly recommend this tour and especially Izzy!!

Thoroughly enjoyable tour - our guide, Enor, was friendly, knowledgeable & fun. We opted for a small group tour & would recommend the personal touch. Visited all the locations of interest on the Golden Circle tour along with other unscheduled stops (ice cream direct from the farm, feeding wild horses & lunch at a tomato farm). We weren’t rushed at each location & felt the tour was great value for money.

Most hotels in Reykjavík don't have a parking lot, and we are not allowed to stop on the street for pickup. That's why there are Busstop near by every hotel for pickup.

Each stop was memorable. Our driver/guide was excellent. He found ways to make the whole experience special.
My favorite was his explanation of the rift area between the tectonic plates.

Sara was a great guide (and driver) showing us some of the most beautiful places in Iceland on the Golden Circle….the Kerio Crater, the Gullfoss falls, The Geyser, the separation on the tectonic plates in the national park….and a great dairy farm for ice cream! She was personable and very knowledgeable and added fun to an already incredible itinerary! Having a mini-bus rather than a big bus made the drive even better!

Fabulous trip with extra stops and fabulous scenery.
We had a wonderful day and our driver was full of information.
The only reason I scored four rather than 5 is that we should have taken a packed lunch because it wasn’t clear we had stopped for lunch meaning we did not have time to get any food and ended up going without.

We have on our schedule an extra time for lunch at a restaurant or café at some of our stops, and you can read about that in our tour description.
On your tour there was a small group of only 8 passengers, and when we got small groups we can better rearange our tour schedule.
Thomas your guide mention that he could skip the extra time for luch to make time for more extra stops, but the restaurants and café at most of the stops were open and time to grab something to eat on the way instead for lunch stop.
Thomas belived that he got all of you agree on that.
We are sorry if this caused you problem and made a mark on a otherwise grait day.

All three of us thoroughly enjoyed this adventure! We saw the most beautiful waterfalls, walked on the rim of a volcano crater and hiked in a lava rock canyon during a beautiful snowfall which was most memorable... a true winter wonderland!!!
This tour company tour guide provided all on the itinerary plus several extra stops and shared so many memorable stories about Iceland and his family's customs. We give our highest recommendation!!! You will not be disappointed!!!

Had a fab day visiting the golden circle. Siggi was very knowledgeable and took us to some extra spots given we were such a small group. This is much better with it been such a small group Vs a coach trip. Siggi told us lots about the area and Icelandic history. Definitely memorable for our trip to Iceland. Would love to try another trip with yourself should we visit Iceland again. Thank you

Outstanding scenery. Friends who had already taken this trip have told me about it, but nothing can prepare you for the adventure of being there yourself. The scenery is simply stunning. Our guide Siggi told us so much about the sights we were seeing and the history of the island. I learned so much. This trip is a MUST.

Brilliant trip. Tour guide and tour itself were fantastic.
The tour guide was lovely and very knowledgeable.
The tour itself covered everything you could want it to from the geyser to Gullfoss waterfall, an ice cream farm, a volcanic crater and more.
Definitely worth booking this trip, great value for money.

With only four people in group it felt like being on a private tour! Thomas was a fantastic guide having in depth knowledge of the area and history of Iceland. Unfortunately his microphone wasn’t working on the day so it was hard to hear information at the back of the mini bus. Plus no wifi connection. Still recommended tour company.

We had this tour with Thomas and he is awesome, he know everything about Iceland and he is so happy to share it with visitors. He adds some spontaneous stops that make the tour fun, and keeps it interesting! They also have wifi on the minibus, and they don't rush anything. I made the mistake of booking the northern Lights tour with another company, but I should have booked with them!

Really enjoyed seeing the famous sights on this trip. It was made all the more enjoyable by Tomas. We loved his impromptu stops, and his non-stop narration was extremely informative and entertaining. He gave the impression that his company really cares about its' customers and their experiences. Had we not pre-booked other tours we would definitely have booked through Tomas's company.

First time in Iceland. Prompt pick up at hotel in minibus. Perfect tour for us to see all main sights. Tomas was our driver, he made the day most enjoyable and threw in a few extra stops for us.

This was a wonderful small-group tour of the major sites of the Golden Circle! Our guide Siggi was excellent, providing informative and helpful narration during the driving portions, then allowing us to explore on our own at each site. The trip was very well run, from pickup in the morning to the various stops along the way. Highly recommended!

We are not usually tour type people but wanted to go to the golden circle and opted for a small group tour - this was definitely the right decision there was only 4 of us on the day, the tour guide was excellent he gave us loads to history while travelling between the sights, but once we got there he left us to it and gave us a time to re meet! This was perfect for us! There is plenty of stops to use toilets and your only a maximum of an hour between each sight but most of them 45 minutes between, plus we like the idea of not being on a big coach much more comfortable ride! - don’t hesitate book this tour!

Our minibus arrived on time and they also have a wifi on board! We had a great time and experience with Thomas our (tour guide) is very knowledgeable. We are a small group so we really had enough time to enjoy the scenery. Thomas also narrates while we are heading on the place and give you a private time afterwards. Highly recommended the (Iceland Eveywhere) tour company!
