David was very informative and made our Golden Circle tour very interesting. To this day we still talk about the trip to friends. He gave us a brilliant history lesson on Iceland and took us to places that the big tour operators are unable to stop at or even get close to. The trip is a must. More

This company was recommended to us and David did not let us down. Quite simply, he puts himself into the shoes of the tourist and tells you all the interesting and unusual things that would interest you. He keeps your attention for hours, transfixed, like listening to an informative documentary on the radio about Iceland. He is bright, highly knowledgeable... More

We did the Golden Circle with Iceland Horizon and it was a great day. We also did the South Shore and that was EVEN BETTER!!! We highly recommend taking both tours, you'll get all your moneys worth and a lot more. These were the best tours we've taken maybe ever. Layer up your dress and you'll be good to go.... More

We just got back from Iceland and our Golden Circle Tour with Dave from Iceland Horizon was one of the highlights of our visit. Dave is so knowledgeable about Iceland, its geology, history and politics that he makes the tour fascinating and educational without being boring. He is entertaining and fun to be with. This tour hits some of the... More

Go for the whole enchilada. We talked to friends on our tour from Toronto who went on the half day tour and they did not have as long a visit at each site as we did. It is worth it...just bite the bullet and take the full day. The Geyser, Gullfoss, the volcano crater and more that they don't put... More

I did ALOT of research before going to iceland and booked multiple tours with different companies and by far this one is the way to go. By having a smaller bus, you are able to go to more places and also not waste time for 60 plus people at every stop. In addition, David is amazing! His knowledge about the... More

I went on the Golden Circle Tour with Iceland Horizon on 22 March, 2012, and it was a great day-trip exploring Iceland's natural wonders. We went to see the Kerid crater, Faxafoss, Gullfoss, Geysir, Strokkur, and Thingvellir National Park. A lovely bonus was stopping on the side of the road at one point to pet the Icelandic horses that were... More

Both my spouse and I felt this tour was one of the highlights of your trip. The guide/owner, David, is extremely intelligent and charming. You learn a lot about the history and culture of Iceland. More
