Darren and Hans were the most delightful Host & Bus driver. It’s a 7 hour tour with Gray Line and there was never a dull moment. Darren was amazing, he shared facts about a variety of topics including history, culture and food just to name a few. Hans drove us through so many beautiful roads smoothly and safely. They were so approachable we chatted with them at all the stops and the answered questions and offered recommendations. This tour was so amazing Iceland is so beautiful!

Guide: Runar & Driver: Magnus Reykjavík excursions. The promised 6.5 hour trip turned into over 7 hours. Magnus was a good driver, it was very smooth all the way. Runar was somewhat hit and miss as a guide. Some was well described, some, a geothermal area, was missed entirely as he was on the phone (he did apologise!). The journey back was via a different route than the way in, and was much longer and much more boring. Not helped by Runar and Magnus having a loud conversation in Icelandic most of the way. It gets tiring listening to it for so long. We were in the seat behind the driver Runar in the seat opposite. A major relief to get off the bus! Good value though at £70 per head

Overall Very good tour, good guide, perfect stops with good timings. Will surely recommend this tour for 1st timers to Iceland

Darren and Hans were great was a cool tour . Not too long, Got great weather today made it even more good…..would recommend

Firstly as evidenced by all the positive reviews provided for all of the other tours that myself and my wife did during our recent trip to Iceland, you would be right in concluding that I am not an habitual complainer. However, this review is the exception. This tour just did not happen. I was supposed to be picked up at the Reykjavic Cruise Terminal at 7.30am. I was ahead of schedule until being prevented from leaving our ship due to the fact that the Icelandic Border Force or whatever bureaucratic rubbish name that they call themselves were late! I rushed to the pickup point and I believe that I got there by 7.35am, though Grayline claim their driver waited until 7.40am. I do not believe them. The whole scene was disorganised chaos, with no order and people rushing at buses as they arrived wondering if it was their tour bus. I rang the bus line and was told that my bus would arrive at 8.45am. After this deadline had been reached, I rang again only to be told by the same person that he'd made a mistake (he said that it was a miscommunication!, but I'd correct that to a mistake) and the bus had left already. I then walked to the Grayline depot and demanded to see the person in charge. When I mentioned that I was 5 minutes late due to the slack manner of service delivery of his country's immigration officials, he sort of smirked which led me to conclude that this was not the first time situations like this had occurred. He did offer me a later tour that day, but its return time was too late to meet my ship's departure time. I immediately contacted Viator to request a refund based on circumstances that had been beyond my control. Despite repeated attempts, they have refused my requests, which does not inspire me with much confidence to deal with them in the future. I mean they seem to be all smiles and new age review oriented when things are going well, but when things go belly up, they don't seem to want to know. So how was the Golden Circle Tour with Grayline Bus Company? Well, I don't actually know as ultimately, they failed to take me.

Iceland is so different from any place we have been. Super interesting with the landscape, the falls, the geysers, the 5 gaits horses and unusual, but delicious food. We both enjoyed the tour. It would have been better without the wind and rain. I strongly suggest frog togs, jacket and pants or something similar.

My partner and I had an absolutely amazing day doing the golden circle tour with Darren and our driver Vali. Darren was extremely kind, knowledgeable, and absolutely hilarious. It was foggy and raining most of the day but he made it so worth it. Pick up and drop off went smoothly. We were scheduled to do a northern lights tour but because of the weather it was cancelled. We were able to be refunded or schedule for another day free of charge. I would 10/10 recommend!

The boat docked at 8am, and by the time we got out of the boat, it was 8:20am. We could not find which bus we have to go to. We should have been given instructions as to which bus to go, as there are too many buses. It turned out, we run across a guy with black jacket Grayline, so I approached him, but our name was not on his list. The guy was looking for a different name. But we were told to ride in a mini van who will go to the bus terminal. Our schedule was for 8am, and we're late for 9am, so we ended up joining the 10:30am, so we waited 2 hours to get to the right bus with available seats. It was stressful looking around and asking which bus to go in, but we didn't know that we'll be taken to the bus Terminal, and was a long wait too at the Bus Terminal. In short, you should give alternate detailed instructions, if the boat did not dock at the time that was originally scheduled for the pickup, and what bus or mini van to look for. We were about to go back to the boat, and I was just lucky to run into a guy with a Gray Line jacket. Thanks for this experience. The Tour was very good after all, but the problem was lack of proper instructions where to go, if it's a bus or a minivan, and where to go.

The Grayline Golden Circle Tour with Darren as tour guide and Panni as driver was most enjoyable. Darren is a most knowledgeable and enjoyable guide! They also managed the time very well. For us, the highlight was the waterfall called Godafoss. Incredibly beautiful. Highly recommend

Driver was on-time, personable, and the van was comfortable. There were 4 of us with 7 pieces of luggage. Everything fit, and the ride was uneventful. Just the way I like it after being out of the country for 16 days!!

Tectonic plates, geysers and an amazing waterfall? Are you kidding me? You can’t miss this trip! Super guide gave us all kinds of info about Iceland along the way!

The sites were all that we had hoped for. Great praise for Darren, our guide, and Helgi, our driver. They helped make the tour interesting and educational.

The trip visited all of the golden circle attractions where they gave us plenty of time. Guide was knowledgeable and answered all of the questions. The joining instructions led to some confusion bearing in mind everyone joining the trip got on at the cruise terminal there should have been somebody there to guide you to the stop.

I was really looking forward to this experience, so perhaps my expectations were high. It was really enjoyable, and would say it's worthwhile experiencing overall. The hot soup and hot chocolate/tea inclusion is nice, in addition to the domesticated fox that was hanging around. [although don't expect to see the fox. We were among the first visitors that day, and I think it retreats as more people arrive].

This was such a great tour and well worth it. The 3 main stops were a must see when in Reykjavík. The tour was accessible friendly with my parents being able to bring their foldable walkers with them. The bus was comfortable and they gave a good amount of time at each stop to walk around, take pictures and explore a little.
