Nice trip & guide

Our guide was a really nice and funny guy and gave us a lot of good tips - especially about food, since he’s an ex chef. He also told us about icelandic legends and really interesting general curiosities. THANKS BART!!

Amazing! Highly Recommend

Our guide/driver from Nice Travel, CD, was knowledge, funny, and considerate. The large van was comfy and had wifi. Plenty of "comfort" stops. Impressive beauty throughout the Peninsula and iso many nteresting stops on the 2-day adventure. Hotel was perfect, in a lovely little town with plenty of dinner options.

Beautiful place

We did total 5 days tour of Icelands golden circle for 3 days and silver circle for 2 days. The first 3 days of golden circle was an amazing experience. Geysers, waterfalls, tectonic plates, glaciers, diamond beach etc. was throughly enjoyed. Our guide and driver Monica was amazing and made our experience even more memorable. The Silver circle side for 2 days too was a great experience. Completely different beautiful landscape. However, there a lot of room for improvement with the two different guides we had. Sami and David both Majorly lacked giving proper information and instructions about lunch and bathroom breaks. Certainly did not care for the rude and disrespectful attitude. The audibility in the back of the bus was not great.
