The tour itself was good. Enjoyable sights but the tour guide was only just ok. She honestly put us to sleep during the bus ride. There could’ve been way more information of value for what we were seeing. And when we got off the bus she’d say she was walking us somewhere and she would never even wait for you to get off the bus LOL. Regardless, glad we went and could see Iceland outside of the city.

This is an amazing excursion! You and a small group are lowered into a dormant volcano, where you can climb among the boulders and take in the amazing colors the eruption left behind. It is awe-inspiring and a little scary, but so worth it! The hike to the volcano was cold and windy, but the gravel path made it fairly easy to navigate. All of the guides were friendly, enthusiastic, and engaging. We had a terrific, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommend!

Darren and Helgi are the bees freaking knees. Great tour to get a bunch of cool sites in for a short time period.

This was a great experience and organized way to see the Golden Circle in Iceland. If you are visiting over the winter like we were, driving yourself can be intimidating and I highly recommend this tour to see some of the most famous tourism sites in Iceland.

The time spent at each was good. Amazing views and best of all a great tour guide and driver. Helgi our driver was professional and courteous. Smooth ride. Darren our guide gave us colorful details of each stop, the things we passed snd comments about Iceland and the people. Great job Helgi and Darren I would want the two of them to be available for others to enjoy

It was a great tour. The driver was superb and he explained the history of Iceland very nicely while in the bus. The waterfalls were majestic and beach was very beautiful

SIMPLY PATHETIC - THEY ARE NOT BOTHERED TO PROVIDE SERVICE AFTER RECEIVING THE PAYMENT. WE HAD OUR AIRPORT TRANSFER BOOKED FOR EARLY MORNING 5 AM AND NOBODY TURNED UP FOR THE SAME. THEIR EMERGENCY NO. IS USELESS TOO AS NOBODY PICKED UP TO ASSIST US

Darren and Helgi provided us with a great trip. Darren was a fantastic guide, he had a good clear voice and provided a lot of interesting information along the way as well as some comical anecdotes. He was clear in his instructions which made the trip run very smoothly. Highly recommended tour

Darren and Helgi - guide and driver were great. Looked after us, informative chat and nice atmosphere on the bus. Timekeeping was good too which was important for our day. Saw all we wanted to. Thanks

Darren and Helgi were very nice and gave a lot of information. We had plenty of time at each stop! Felt like we got the “inside scoop” at each location!

Darren & Helgi the driver was excellent. Darren gave great Iceland history and get it fun. I enjoyed the day and drive back to hotel safe. I will recommend this tour! Kidos guys!!! Nicholson

Great day out left hotel at 9.00 so not to early went of to park were you can see the tatonic plates then on to see the geysers one of wich still spouts to a great hight every 5 minutes be carefull if you stand at back of it to take photos as we did because when water came down we got rather wet so smelt of sulphur all day but it wasnr hot so did not get burnt and was well worth it next stop was a lovely waterfall there are several flights of steps down to it then walk up short muddy slope but I managed ok and I'm not that great on my feet we also saw a lot more nice scenery we had three toilet and refreshment stops during the trip so no worries there

The tour was better and cheaper than the ship tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and helped us very much. They even offered the option to drop us off at the Harpa city center to vie Reykavik snd catch the free cruise shuttle later. They operate as a Gray Line frachise.

Our guide and driver were called Darren & Emil - they were absolutely brilliant. Darren was very informative and gave clear instructions at every point of the trip. He did it with humour and professionalism and with a genuine love for Iceland. We booked the Golden Circle tour with the Blue Lagoon for the same day, which we thought when booking it that it was all one tour. It became clear during the Golden Circle tour that the Blue Lagoon part of the tour is completely separate. It was a waste of part of our day as we were returned back to the bus hostel where we waited 30 minutes for the designated bus to the Blue Lagoon. It took approx 45 minutes to reach the Blue Lagoon, and upon arrival there was no instructions given from the driver about the return journey. We and other passengers had to ask for the details of the return journey and what time - this information needs to be given by the driver before anyone leaves the bus so that they are clear about return journey details. Going back to the very start of the day when we had our instructions about our initial pick up in Reykjavik- what an absolute shambles to say the least. Our joining instructions told us to meet at the Sand Hotel and it would be a green and white bus. We arrived at the Sand Hotel at 7.30 as instructed. As there was no one else waiting, I went into the hotel to ask if they could advise if they knew of pick ups from the Sand Hotel for these tours. He said it would probably be bus stop 14 - which meant nothing to us and had never been mentioned in any of the communications. The receptionist kindly phoned Gray Line who eventually informed him that the bus had already been to the pick up point and would have to return back to collect us - but it would be from Bus stop 14, which was quite was distance. I have slight walking difficulties and this unexpected brisk walk was certainly not welcomed. We realised later that we were in fact within postcode area 101. Why did the initial booking allow us to arrange pick up from the Sand Hotel which is also within postcode area 101? Overall this is a good tour, and Darren was a brilliant guide for the day - one of our pet hates is walking behind a guide with a paddle board like sheep - Darren gives you the information in abundance and then lets you go where you want to go, this for me allows you to get what YOU want from the tour as not everyone wants to do the same thing. No issues at all with this part of the tour. The administration needs to be looked at and better information given for pick up etc. Also - please indicate that the Blue lagoon part of the tour is a separate part altogether. Regards Sandra & Colin Henderson

My wife and I took the adventure. We are 67 and 68 and in good shape. The hike was not strenuous and we felt perfectly safe. The staff is highly competent and experienced. I would not get scared off of this if it piques your interest. The visit was highly memorable. We both rank it in the top one or two of our many activities across 12 days in Iceland. Bring layers as the conditions change rapidly across time and down in the volcano. Oh, and the lamb stew was outstanding.
