Very nice tour

The tour was very nice. Our driver and tour guide Dooley was competent and organized and explained everything perfectly. I definitely highly recommend this tour. Stops are made at many places worth seeing. My highlight of today's excursion is Mount Kirkjufell.

Love listening to Darran

Darran, our guide, was such a fantastic story teller. It's like listening to Garrison Keillor. 👍

Darren and Pablo were amazing guides!

This was a great group tour. It was a 5 hour, half day, tour and we had just enough time at each stop to enjoy the views, explore a bit, and take some pictures. Darren and Pablo were a great guide/driver duo, amazing energy, and shared fun information along the way and at each stop! Thank you for a great time!
