    Incredible Tour and Company

    Brandi_G, Jan 2025
    Highly recommend! If you’re traveling with family, I highly recommend Tom and his company to coordinate your adventures. We told Tom that we were traveling with a 2.5-year-old, and he provided us with two proposed itineraries that catered to traveling with a young one. We were picked up and dropped off directly to our hotel. If you book tours with other companies, be wary that they may use 3rd party or public transportation to get you to your destination which can be chaotic. This may mean waiting in the frigid cold at a local bus stop. As for our tour, Kata picked us up at our hotel (with a toddler car seat) and took us to three different locations. She was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. We learned more about Iceland on this particular tour than all of the tours we took combined. Hands down the best part of our trip to Iceland!

    Thomas the amazing tour guide!!!

    I had the pleasure of joining a tour guided by Thomas, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! His excellent communication skills made every part of the experience engaging and informative. I learned so much about the rich history, traditions, and unique aspects of native Icelandic culture, all explained with clarity and enthusiasm. Thomas’s time management was impeccable, ensuring we made the most of every stop without feeling rushed. He clearly has a deep understanding of the area, taking us to not only the iconic locations but also some hidden gems that felt truly special. His knowledge of the best spots for photography was a huge bonus, allowing us to capture breathtaking moments we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for a professional, knowledgeable, and personable guide who enhances every aspect of your Icelandic adventure, Thomas is the one. I highly recommend this tour company and Thomas for anyone looking to explore Iceland in the best way possible!

    Fantastic tour, highly recommend!

    We were traveling to Iceland on a cruise and decided to stay in Rejkjavik for a few days post cruise. We opted for the private Golden Circle day tour with Thomas and this was by far the best tour we took, much better than the cruise shore excursions. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see outside of the city. We saw many sights and had a great time with Thomas. He is very professional, knowledgeable, down to earth and fun to be with. I had some communication with him prior to arriving and he worked our group of 4 to find the right tour for us. He was at the hotel to pick us up promptly at the agreed upon time and always responded promptly to my messages. The private tour was definitely worth the money, the car was very comfortable, with water and snacks included. I would definitely use this tour company if I am ever back in the area!

    Great tour!

    Thomas was great! Unfortunately, the weather was against us so we didn't get to do everything planned. Tom was able to get us a refund for the cave tour thankfully! We absolutely enjoyed our time.

    Unforgettable experience with an incredible guide!

    Ken_L, Jan 2024
    Thomas was an excellent Guide. His knowledge was invaluable. He explained so much and showed me so many amazing unique things about Iceland. He made the trip something I will never forget. I learned so much and even some Icelandic words. Thomas is the guy to go to if you truly want to experience and learn about Iceland and how marvelous of a country Iceland is. I’m already planning another trip back to visit Iceland and Thomas. Truly amazing!

    Tomasz In Iceland

    Tomasz drove us all around Iceland, seeing the highlights for six hours. He was knowledgeable and attentive. We would definitely love to have him again and recommend him to anyone wanting a personal experience.

    Very interesting day with lots to see. Our Guide Tomas was excellent, knowledgeable and courteous We enjoyed our time at the Blue Lagoon. Would recommend paying a bit more and getting the package with a robe.?

    EV Travel the best.

    Wendy_J, Aug 2023
    Fabulous day with Tom. Car was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully stocked with snacks, ice water in reusable flasks, blankets if needed and raincoats in various sizes. Tom took us to any and all the attractions and sights we were interested in and more. We could not fault his service and guiding skills and would highly recommend his tour company EV Travel. Thank you for a wonderful day Tom.

    Three unforgettable days.

    Amazing short tour in Iceland layover

    Thomas was an amazing guide. Comfortable van with water and snacks. Customized the tour to what we wanted to see and how much time we had. very knowledgeable.

    Great tour experience for families

    Candice_S, Mar 2023
    After booking, the company had emailed a couple of times asking about specifics for what we wanted to see. The tour was customized to our interests and time constraints. Thomas was an amazing and knowledgeable driver. We did a 4 hour tour with pick up and drop off from our hotel in Reykjavik. We had 2 adults and 3 kids (ages 7, 10, and 13). This was a good amount of time and sites for our kids. The car was stocked with bottled water and Icelandic chocolate & licorice snacks. Thomas told us about all of the locations on the Reykjanes Peninsula tour. We visited Hafnarfjörður, Krýsuvík, Fagradalsfjall, Gunnuhver, and Bridge Between Continents. Between the fish head, hot springs, dormant volcano, and geothermal areas, we got a brief overview of the beautiful landscape of Iceland. We were only in Iceland for a weekend stop over before heading to London, so this was the right amount of time to spend for our ages of children which we scheduled between lunch and dinner. With adults only, I would suggest a longer tour. Highly recommend this tour company!
