6-Day Iceland Ring Road Adventure

Our guide and driver HBO was fantastic and did an amazing job to keep us ahead of some bad weather on day one and wonderful commentary throughout the trip. The bus was disappointing and felt very cramped, and there was no adequate room for our belongings. Hotel stays were quite good.

We just finished our 6-day Ring Road tour with Runar, and wow, it was hands down the best travel experience we’ve ever had! Runar was an incredible guide, a skilled driver, a true local with deep knowledge, a great sense of humor, and so much passion for sharing Iceland’s beauty and stories. Every day was perfectly planned, full of breathtaking sights, fun surprises, and great energy. We don’t usually join group tours, but our small group of 13 turned out to be amazing. The accommodation choices were also fantastic, super comfortable, beautifully set, and even stocked with lovely touches like L’Occitane toiletries! And to top it all off, we were lucky enough to see the northern lights multiple times, even one morning just before the sun was rising, what an unforgettable treat! This trip far exceeded all our expectations and we can’t recommend Runar and this tour enough!

We had an amazing 6-day Ring Road trip! Rúnar did a fantastic job sharing Iceland’s rich history while guiding us through its stunning landscapes. He even took us on a wonderful Northern Lights hunting tour and gave us great food recommendations along the way.

Had a thoroughly enjoyable 6 day trip around Iceland. We saw so much including the popular Golden Circle but also had a chance to explore the less visited, quieter other side of the country. Our tour guide Thor was excellent, sharing his passion for his country, adding personal knowledge and interest to the tour and then continuing to be available in the evenings to share a meal and provide updates on Aurora sightings. The accommodation was all of good quality, the breakfasts were excellent and the bus new and clean.

We saw so many amazing sights, from waterfalls and canyons, to puffins, icebergs, horses, thermal areas with bubbling mud and the geyser. Our guide and driver Thor was excellent. He was very accommodating and helpful, and always cheerful. He shared a lot of knowledge with us. The bus for the 6 days was very good, quite new and Thor kept it very clean. (I would note I booked the 8 day tour and that involved Bus Tours Iceland tacking on 2 day trips before the 6 day tour. I do not recommend doing this. In my opinion (and now experience) you are better off booking day trips separately. I have reviewed those days separately).
