Traveler reviews
Disappointed
Disappointed that the tour lasted 9 hrs. The description when booking said an 8 hr tour. We weren't the only ones who made plans based on the tour details. Still don't understand why it went 1 hr over. We've been on lots of excursions in various locations around the world and they always follow the schedule.
Excellent
Fantastic day experiencing a variety of things Iceland has to offer. Good info about the country, the people, and the history.
Perfect way to see so much!
We thoroughly enjoyed this full day tour and learned so much. They were very mindful of cruise ship return times and we never once felt worried or hurried. Highly recommended.
Excellent tour!
Another excellent tour with a great variety of stops that showcased the incredible beauty and diversity of Iceland. Our guide, Sigurjon, did an outstanding job sharing interesting facts about the country’s history, culture, and traditions. What made the tour especially enjoyable was how he connected those stories to his own life, explaining how Iceland has shaped him and his family. Those personal insights made the experience feel authentic and gave us a much deeper appreciation for the places we visited. A sandwich was provided during the tour, and there were also several opportunities to purchase coffee, snacks, and additional food along the way, making it easy to stay comfortable throughout the day. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you have Sigurjon as your guide!
5 star! Sven is the best!
Our Diamond Circle tour was one of the highlights of our trip, and Sven made it truly unforgettable! He was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and shared so many interesting facts about Iceland. What really set him apart was his willingness to go above and beyond by making an extra stop so we could see the puffins. That unexpected experience was such a special treat and meant so much to us If you’re lucky enough to have Sven as your guide, you’re in for an amazing day Highly recommend this tour—and especially Sven!
