Traveler reviews
Wonderful
This trip is really nice Bjorn is very friendly
10000/10 experience...
10000/10 experience absolutely must do!!! Max was our tour guide for most of the day and was fabulous and Abbie was our instructor for the snorkel section. Max was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the environment and history of all of the places we got to see and even let us stop to see the ponies!! Abbie took amazing pictures and made sure we all felt safe and comfortable prior to getting in the water. Such a unique amazing experience and could not say enough great things!!!
Trolls, elves and hidden people as well as some fabulous sights
Had the pleasure of being taken on our tour by Ella in ‘Rambo’ the monster 4x4 mini bus! Great story telling and explanations on the road between stops: trolls, elves and the hidden people who inhabit Iceland along with us humans! Gave us plenty of time at each location and even made an extra stop to see the legendary Icelandic horses. Great day out.
This is my favorite tour...
This is my favorite tour out of the 3 I did in Iceland. The snorkeling is magical and Lilian was the perfect guide. He keeps you laughing. The stops around the golden circle were well timed. The driver kept us very entertained with stories and history. Don’t miss this one.
10/10
