Traveler reviews
very good value for money
this is a good experience tanya was our tour guide and tolek was the driver the bus was clean the tour kept in schedule it is a bit fast paced so some places felt a bit rushed lunch was provided but was a sandwich unfortunately there is not a great place to eat fortunately for us the day was dry and sunny so we could sit in the grass and eat it is also much cheaper than the cruise offering
Wasn’t bad, just not a good fit!
Would have loved more geology/science/history content included. Stunning scenery!! The hot springs (not for swimming!) smell awful, would probably recommend not serving sandwich lunch at that particular stop. Our bus driver was elite, tour guide seemed more into music than the background of landscape. It wasn’t a bad tour, made it to all the stops promised, stopped at the waterfall at the end so it was less crowded, but felt I missed out on context. Probably wouldn’t book this one again, but it may be tour guide dependent.
Great way to spend the day
Well worth the non-cruise excursion price. Very good Guide (Kiersten)and driver. She was very informative and the sites were beautiful!
Excellent tour
Tricia was a wonderful guide and gave us great tidbits on Iceland overall. Highly recommend this tour if you are in this part of Iceland.
Amazing experience!
Please make sure you have Kiersten as your guide! Thoroughly knowledgeable from top to bottom. Knew everything about anything. We were extremely lucky this day. Picture perfect postcard day. Not a cloud in the sky, so that helped. The waterfall was beautiful, the boiling pots were amazing. The Icelandic landscape makes you feel like you’re on another planet. Downfall of course because it was a summer day, there were bus fulls, and two cruise ships in town, so all the sights were riddled with tourists, But Kiersten was truly amazing! You can tell she loves her job, took time to talk to us individually, answer any questions we threw at her. So great tour guide + great weather = great experience!
