GTI pretty much organised my entire trip to Iceland and it was fantastic. I originally got in touch with Bob back in April 2011 and since then we have been liasing over email to find the perfect weekend to see the Northern Lights. We ended up going on the weekend of January 20th and saw a display every night. Bob... More

I am not sure where to start with this review because it was all over the board. I first started emailing Bob several months prior to our departure. As the trip approached he reminded me of tours and offers. We ended up taking three tours with GTI. The first was the Golden Circle Tour with Sola. She was amazing and... More

We had read all the other rave reviews about Gateway to Iceland and, even though our hotel was keen to direct us elsewhere, we insisted and I am so glad we did. Like many other reviewers, our tour guide was the CEO of the company, Gudmundur Sigmurdsson (or "Gummi") and his knowledge and enthusiasm is inspiring. On the first night... More

We booked a northern lights tour with this company and as promised we got to see the wonderful northern lights although the driver nearly crashed the minibus in town before we left and we then nearly missed the northern lights viewing as we had to stop for the toilets. SO it had snowed a lot and was icy ..basically the... More

I was very excited to see that Gateway to Iceland had a tripadvisor certificate however I was disappointed with our tour. We went out in a minibus and travelled about 45min out of Reykjavik. It was useful to hear about the science behind the lights, get an introduction to it all and hear that another trip was promised if we... More

Our 3 generations of family (ages 8 - 84) spent several days in Iceland in January, 2012. The Hilton Nordica's fine Travel Desk recommended GTI for a day tour when our other tour was cancelled due to inclement weather. We were very fortunate to that GTI gave us our own minibus that could seat 17 for just the 11 of... More

We went on three trips with GTI - northern lights twice and then the golden circle and each one was great. All tours are in small minibuses with a maximum of 14 people so they can get to the locations other coaches fail to reach and also means less waiting for loading and unloading of people. I enjoyed the northern... More

The weather was awful, with rain, ice & snow & most tours were turning back, but GTI carried on & it was so worth it! They provided shoe spikes & waterproofs at no extra cost & had a fab day, just a shame we didnt have a clear day, definately recommend this company, they were on time, it was a... More

We did our homework about the possibility of seeing the Northern Lights & booked a city break to Reykjavik over the New Year. I wanted to do our trips in minibuses in small groups & not be herded about with 50+ people in large coaches, so I booked all our tours with Gateway to Iceland.We could not have been more... More
