Visiting Geyser, the waterfalls, and the beaches were all amazing experiences. Learning about all of these sites from my knowledgeable guide enhanced the experience. My trip to Iceland was wonderful, however my guide Andres made my journey absolutely AMAZING!!!

Dear Laverne,
Thank you for this review. Touring with you was also for me a good time since you both are interested in nature. If you weren´t willing to visit the particular exhibition, is just a point of your own opinion and wishes, so I appreciate it very much.
You also contacted me in good advance, so I knew somehow what are your interests, and what are you expecting from Iceland. With that good advance tours usually happen much better. And yes. We stayed together in days, so it is different of some other travellers booking a day tour, or only a few hours tour with me and my company.
Really hope to see you again and thanks again for this review.

Ray thank you for this review. It was my pleasure to be with you that day. You have travelled a lot before Iceland, so interest and comparison are on right one way. There is only one thing I would do more if possible. It is to be with you on tour and with your soul mate. But destiny exists, so she was happy for you to visit Iceland, I believe.
Thanks again.

Andres came highly recommended by friends who had been on one of his private tours a few years ago so I got in touch. From the first email which was prompt and full of information so we booked there and then. He arrived promptly and we found him to be extremely knowledgeable about all Icelandic matters from geology to politics. My mobility is poor so he tailored the tour to suit my needs, even dropping us off near an attraction when parking nearby was limited. Andres was the perfect tour guide and we can’t recommend him highly enough.

Dear BlueRuby. Thank you for so a positive review. We have had some time to organize or find the best travelling solutions. It is the first important step. You also have been lucky with the weather and that is something I myself would wish on travelling local or in another country, including in your home country, UK.
If it is going good, then also the weather need to be with us. You got all of it, and I am happy that your Iceland travel dreams become used in a maximum way.
So thank you to be my guest, as thank you to family W recommended me. We will meet each other again, I know we will.

We wanted to see the Golden Circle tour but did not want to be on a bus with 40 or more passengers. The perfect solution for us was to take private tour from Mercury Grail with Andres as our guide. This was a great tour and the cost for 2 of us was less than the cost that our Viking cruise was charging for the same tour on a bus full of passengers. Andres was a super guide. Couldn't ask for more

That kind of Golden circle version is really better option. But not everybody is willing to research the market and options. It was my honor to be that day with you on tour. You both are very kind, and experienced travelers, so to get review from that kind of customer means a lot.
Thank you to be my guest.

Andres was very knowledgeable and super friendly. He was flexible to flight delays and bathroom needs and went out of his way to show sights that we had liked to see that wasn’t part of the tour. He knew exactly which spots would give you the best photo opportunities and arranged the day according to the weather and traffic. I would very highly recommend!

Veronia,
Thank you for kind words. I was enjoying very much with you since you are a very easy-going couple, a positive person, and much more on that way. I would enjoy to be with you again when you are traveling to Iceland again. I know that time will come since better times for tourism are just upcoming after months.
Thanks again,
Andres

Mr Ivanovic was an excellent guide. He was very informative and at the end of the tour he dropped us off at the hotel. I left a small pouch in the car on the floor (surprised he saw it) and he returned it to the hotel later that evening. How very nice of him to return to the hotel hours after the tour. In addition to being very personable all during the tour, returning my lost item was very kind. I recommend him.

Thank you for you review Sally. I was really impressed for your group since you have been interested on place we visited, history, nature and else. Not everybody is, so that kind of tours always happens well.
I would really like to see you here with me again in other season.
Wish you all best.

Really enjoyed our day with Andres, complete flexibility so we could do and see what we wanted without having to stick to a pre planned agenda . He has a huge amount of knowledge which he was happy to share as well as also being happy to talk about proper life on Iceland from a residence perspective. Really helped with camera settings and locations. Top service in a clean comfy jeep. I would book again with Andres if I return with no hesitation. ......Thanks

It was my pleasure to be with you on tour. I also learned something from you and your part of England. Tours like that always happen well, special for those travelers interesting in areas, history, geology and else. But yes. I have been in situation when travelers didn´t been interesting due to some reason and in the end of tour I feel bad since question in my mind was if I have done something wrong. But travel with was completely opposite since you both were interesting in regular things and details.

Andres

We toured with Andres for 2 days covering: The Golden circle, Geysers, Blue lagoon and the northern lights (they didn't show up when we were there no matter how hard Andres tired to chase them down!
The tour was extremely flexible and he catered to our every need!
At every land mark we visited Andres gave us extensive information which is easy to digest.
I would highly recommend Mercury Grail as your tour provider. They know the best places, they know the insides out of Iceland and they'll make sure you have a great time!!
Thanks Andres and Hercules!

Thank you Sari for this Review. Very true. I haven´t any reason to push aditional preassure on travelers since we are talking about vacations and they are made to relax and not to be on rush. At all speed on both tours wasn´t and will not be in future like Niki Lauda can done, however his or mine business aren´t same one. :)
Thank you to be my guest.

Our excursion with Andres could not have been any better. My two brothers and I did the day trip to the golden circle and were very pleased with the trip. Andres was very flexible with timing and was focused on making sure we got the amount of time we wanted at each site. There was never any rush or time deadline like there is when taking a tour bus. Andres was also very personable. We enjoyed plenty of fun conversation that added to our experience as well as getting to know each other more personally. After our excursion was over, Andres even gave us recommendations on other great sites to visit for the rest of our trip. Without a doubt, this is the experience I will highly recommend to anyone going to visit Iceland.

We were picked up by Andres from our apartments nice and early. Andres was a lovely polite man who made us feel very welcome.
We set off in his jeep excited. Andres explained everything to us and was extremely knowledgeable. He chose lovely stop offs for us to explore and take photos.
Every place we visited was explained to us in detail and given as much time as we needed.
I highly recommend this way to travel as it enabled us to come and go at our own pace in a warm comfortable jeep.

Hi, what exactly does the transport to and from attractions exclusion mean? Are there further fees to be paid on the day?
AndresZIvanovic
Reykjavik, Iceland67 contributions
Sorry for this late reply Gavin. I simply do not receive any notifications for questions here.
Transport to and from attractions means to come to all promised places, and if some other attraction like a snowmobile, house riding, snorkelling, Secret lagoon is on special request, then am I doing it too.
