We did the E15 view after eruption, including two waterfalls and a tour to end of the Thorsmork park at the Stakkholtsgja canyon. The bookimg process went smoothly, pickup on time, comfortable Toyata Landcruiser 4WD vehicle, and returned on time. Our guide, Hlynur, was friendly, knowledgeable and full of interesting stories about the history, geology and culture of the places... More

I really wish I could give this tour a better rating because the people who run the company are so nice, however this is just really not a good value at all. The tour is fine, we had a nice enough day, however it is GROSSLY overpriced. The guide is not a guide at all, but really just a driver.... More

After many excellent guided tours around various parts of the world we were disappointed by the lack of much real knowledge or interest demonstrated by the 26 year old young man who drove us around the 2 in 1 (Golden Circle and South Shore) tour, and also his preference to stay in the vehicle or move it from A to...

I booked this tour as a private tour for my friend and myself. We didn't have a lot of time in Iceland and couldn't decide between the golden circle or the south shore and this was the only company that incorporated this tour into one day. I cannot express how great this tour was including our tour guide - .Erling.... More

Aki was our guide on the 2 in 1 tour. He covered all the sights we wanted to see in one day and also some "surprises". Riding in the jeep was very comfortable - even after we got soaked. I just turned on the back seat heater and dried off in no time. We were going to drive ourselves rather... More

We took the Reykjanes peninsula tour and found it to be excellent. The tour included the amazing lava fields of the peninsula, the bridge between two continents, two hot springs areas, volcano craters, caving in a lava tube and views of dramatic coastline. These were all worth seeing and the scenery in between was stunning. Lunch was served in a... More
