Excellent and comfortable private tour around the golden circle. Andres was punctual, knowledgable and very accommodating. Fantastic trip away from large coach tours- well worth the extra money. Thank you!

Our private tour of South Coast for 8 started in the morning. Our driver and guide for the day asked us if there was anywhere special we wanted to visit and gave us an outline of how the day would go. Our 1 request was to do a Costco run and he was able to pull that off and get us to our sky lagoon appointment at the end of the day . We toured the entire South Coast and did not feel rushed . We had time where we wanted to stay longer . This is a very nice tour and highly recommend.

Andres is fantastic. So knowlegagable and friendly. I would highly recommend him to anyone travelling to Iceland. He works hard and wants to create the best experience for customers. Thanks for all your help.

Andres has been wonderful and was very communicative during the entire time we were in Iceland, trying to find a day where the forecast was good to see the Northern Lights. When our initial tour day arrived and it looked like we were not going to be able to do our tour as planned, Andres asked for our schedule to free up additional time if one of the other days would also work for Mother Nature. We unfortunately were not in Reykjavik when we were able to see the lights, but Andres gave many tips for how we might see them when we were across the island, which resulted in success! I would highly recommend this tour company, even though we were unable to complete the tour to no one's fault, but the weather.

Andres, was in contact from the start of our booking and wisely advised us that the conditions may not always be conducive to seeing the lights. Andres came to our hotel and explained every day what our chances were. Rather than other tours where they take payment even when there is no possibility. I knew we were in safe hands and Andres expertise would guide us in the right outcome as was so clear from other reviews. In the end the conditions were not right - but our expectations were managed so well by Andres and we had a wonderful trip to Iceland all the same and even better to have contact with such a good person as Andres is. So make sure you book with him - there is no better!

Fabulous private Golden Circle tour with Andrea's. Spent the day visiting all the sites and seeing all the beautiful countryside. We didnt want to do the secret lagoon so spent more time at each stop and had the additional bonus of visiting a lovely dairy farm for delicious ice cream. Andrea's is very knowledgeable and told us lots of interesting facts and stories about Iceland. Highly recommend a private tour you can spend as much or as little time as you wish at each stop. Andrea's would advise where to go and would then leave you to view/walk at your own pace. Two female travellers felt safe and at ease, picked up and dropped off at hotel which was lovely.

I had a lovely 4 day break with my daughter in Iceland and we did three tours with Andres. He worked really hard to make sure we saw some Northern Light activity even though the magnetism was low. On the other tours we saw amazing scenery from waterfalls and glaciers to crazy rock formations and geysers. It was an amazing trip and thank youAndres for helping to make it so memorable.

Andres was fantastic, very insightful and knew exactly what to look for and where to go for the best chances of seeing the northern lights. This is the only way you should be seeing the northern lights!!

Andres is a very experienced and knowledgeable person, engaged him for the northern lights tour cannot be better. He will informed in advance that how is the weather and ability to see the light that night.

I arranged a Northern Lights Private Tour with Andres for my parents as a gift. Andres went above and beyond to ensure my parents had the best chance of seeing the lights and a once in a lifetime experience. He was flexible and provided the best recommendations for success. My parents are still overcome with what they saw! Great value and a beautifully personalised experience. I am truly grateful and would recommend tours with Andres to anyone.

We had a great experience with Andres. We are 3 senior couples. Had private golden circle tour w secret lagoon. Andres is knowledgeable and offers the traveler a great deal of information on Iceland and its people. We went to the National Park where he explained we were straddling North America and Eurasia Teutonic plates. Stopped at an organic farm for homemade ice cream. We went to the Grima geyser which we saw spouting from the road. After that we went to the Gullfoss Waterfall stunning. Even saw a rainbow there. We then had lunch there. Andres had shared this was a family run business. This was a very full day and something we could not have duplicated on any other tour offered. At the end of day we came across sheep herding which blocked traffic and held us up. Andres offered to still take us to the crater but we opted out as it was getting close to departure time for our cruise. The next day, in another port, we were in a bus excursion where the bus went on fire. Andres, knowing it was our itinerary, reached out to ensure we were all ok. We really appreciated that! Great guy. Super tour. Would love to come back and see more of Iceland with Andres as our guide. Highly recommend.

Our tour was fantastic! Andres was so kind and thoughtful. He was extremely knowledgeable about every spot we stopped at. He took the time to explain each stop in detail. We never felt rushed. We traveled in his van and we felt we never would have experienced Reykjavik the same way with a big tour bus crowd. We had a jam packed day full of amazing sights with Andre. Truly fantastic gentleman! You will not be disappointed taking a tour with him. Kathy & Frank F

Andres is THE MAN. He really customized our day trip by listening to our interests and making recommendations based upon them. Great communication ahead of our time together so you were never left wondering. Pick up and drop off was at our door. We stepped out and there he was waiting. I mentioned about getting back to Reykjavik in time for our dinner resie and Andres made sure of that (even offering to drive us to the restaurant). He is very knowledgeable and everyone we encountered seemed to know him. All we had to do was sit back and relax as he brought us to all the highlights Iceland has to offer. At each site he was careful to not hover and let us have our own experience but was near by where we never had to search for him. I would book with Andres at Mercury Grail without hesitation. So much better than being on a tour bus.

Thor, the Guide of Thunder!! And laughter 😆 From the moment we got on the bus at 8:30am until 8pm that evening he had us in tears from the jokes and stories. Personable is an understatement, Thor’s personality is warm, soulful, and authentically kind. Thor also hums along to the great playlist he created for our pleasure. The music mimics the vibe of the experience you will be enjoying. He has great history of both the land and some troll 🧌 stories thrown in for fun. He knew all the “hot spots” as he is a local born and raised on the peninsula with his family history dating back to the 1800’s!! If you book with Thor you’ll be is safe and capable hands. Thank you for making Joni’s and my trip unforgettable 🤩⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had an amazing time touring the Icelandic South Coast with Andre of Mercury Grail. He goes out of his way to ensure that you have a great experience. We definitely have many memories to cherish for years from this tour. He was very patient with us, knows a lot about Iceland, the history of Iceland and has a great sense of humor. Thank you for everything. John & Krystal
