Great countryside experience

Sergei is great. You need a good guide for these long tours. A really good taste of Icelandic nature.

Dear Nicholas, thank you for your kind words about our full-day trip to Sneafellsens Peninsula.

I took this tour a while ago in November but it was my favorite day in Iceland! The locations we visited were so incredibly beautiful and our guide Sergio was really nice and so informative. Sergio was professional, smart and really took us to places we would not have seen on a big tour bus. Snaefellsness is my favorite spot in Iceland and maybe my favorite place on Earth....it is definitely the most scenic and beautiful place I have ever been. Please consider requesting Sergio for your guide, he went out of his way to make this day special for me and my son by stopping at the Shark Museum for Hakaarl another unique Snaefellsness place. The bus tours we went on were cool but I'm glad we made this one private as Snaefellsness is such a special place, the best place on Earth for photography and sight seeing. My only advice is when you stop for lunch please use the restroom because Snaefellsness is deserted and you won't find very many of them! Thank you Sergio for a memorable day I will never forget!

Unfortunately the weather was not in our favour, but Sergei was a great guide. He was very nice, talkative, and went out of his way to make our tour fun. He would also take photos for us and even found me a rock to give to my father.

Sergei was great! A lot of knowledge about the area, and he told interesting stories. He knew just where to go, and even found a restaurant with vegetarian options for me! He offered his arm so I wouldn't slip on ice in the parking lots, stopped whereever I wanted to take pictures, and even offered great vantage points for the best views. Couldn't have asked for more!
