Andres is the guide you want to find for every adventure. He is knowledgable about the lights and loves sharing and making sure you are having a good time. We went with him twice, he was eager to find the best spots at the moment (it changes from minute to minute!) and was able to make date changes based on viewing possibilities. Would book him again in a heartbeat. Fantastic tour, and the lights were mesmerizing!

Steve and Mike. Thank you for that good review. You are belonging to the age of travellers looking on that kind of tour with different eyes, wider, understanding situation, from minute to minute, so to do tour with you is my honour. I would wish you to book more tours with me since we can open many more topics, right? Thank you to be my customers. Andres

I booked with Andres for a private tour to the northern lights in the hope of proposing to my girlfriend. Unfortunately, the downside of my entire trip was no northern lights visible due to heavy cloud coverage!
No fault of Andres of course and I can only compliment the planning and effort Andres went to in order to ensure there was a Plan B for such an event. He replanned a trip the following day to another location, The Bridge Between Two Continents, where he was patient and we were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves for the special moment.
Besides the experience itself I can only compliment Andres for his amazing knowledge on all things (not just tour related) which made the experience the much more friendly and interesting.
I will definitely be booking again with Mercury Grail at least to tick the northern lights off my list and hopefully other tours too.
Thanks Andres for helping creating a memory that won’t be forgotten for the rest of mine and now my fiancés lives.

Hitesh, First, thank you very much for this five stars review. You both have been very outstanding travellers, and yes, I have done more since for that important step of life something more must be done. I am very sorry for the northern lights. Especially because you came on time when they have been very strong, even strongest in the season. But they can´t break so heavy clouds as they have been during your stay in Iceland. And I am still more sorry since they appear very strong just a day after you left Iceland. Maybe is it a sign for you to return back? Thanks again. Andres

You also were very outstanding travellers. Interesting in geothermal, geology and more in the tour at all. There are many types of travellers, but you are in the category of those who are aware that a tour like yours isn´t just driving, it is education. Thank you for this outstanding review. Andres Andres

Andres took just the two of us out for two evenings searching for the Northern Lights, and a full day trip along the South Coast, including the LAVA Museum, waterfalls and the black beach. He was a enthusiastic and loquacious host, happy to proffer his views on a broad range of esoteric topics. Andres was extremely generous with his time and attention. Very good communication from start to finish.

Dear R6079DRphilipr Yes true. And you truly deserve good tours in Iceland since both of you are for me very memorable. We found in various areas connection so discussions are on that way easier. But I don´t know everything, so need to recognize that I am very cold or low knowledgeable in sports in construction and that kind of thing. I simply was born to communicate in nature or out of nature something in other areas of life. If your tour would start today, nothing would be different and I would do exactly the same, as with a couple like you isn´t difficult to make any kind of tour. Thank you for this wonderful review.

Dear VPMAK I really appreciate your review. True. Private tours are always more flexible so any single that kind of tour happens just better. I would wish to go with you again on tour even the same or more. Thanks again Andres

What a wonderful time we had on this private trip. Andres was very informative and made us laugh even if our weather wasn't very good. During our trip It was very rainy, icy, and just cloudy. But it didn't matter. We still had great conversations, and what we were able to see made it worth the very long drive.We would definitely recommend using this guide while visiting. He was also a very safe driver.. So, next time we visit, we will choose this tour and hopefully have better weather. Thank you!!!

Dear Explore, Thank you very much for this wonderful review. Yes we laughed much, but you are also that kind of person leading people in fun and joy, so the tour with you was for me also something relaxing, however, the weather wasn´t good in any way. You are of course welcome again and I really hope we will see each other again on the same, similar or other tours. Thank you to be my gues. Andres

Fantastic experience. Our tour guide was very informative and experienced. Andres went above and beyond to ensure our tour was enjoyable. In addition to the golden circle and the blue lagoon, Andres took as to see the northern lights, which was an amazing experience. He made our trip very memorable.

Dear325mar It was my honour to be with all of you that day. I know it was long but worthwhile, so when something is worthwhile then every single person is happier, including me. My goal was done that day for you as everything has been done as planned plus northern lights. I am still even happier for you as on that cloudy night all operators cancelled tours for a good reason. But you wanted to take a risk and it worked out for you. We got lights around 2 AM. Hope you enjoyed even tired next morning Sky lagoon. Andres

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. Andres

If you’re looking for someone to take you on a private tour, look no further! Andres was so flexible and patient on our private northern lights tour. He found the lights very faintly initially, then said let’s go, have a cup of coffee and we’ll see them much better later. We then stopped next to a field with Icelandic horses that came over and let us pet them. We still didn’t see a spectacular view of the lights. We decided to head back having at least seen the lights, when we all spotted them dancing very brightly in the sky! He quickly whipped around and pulled off the road where we viewed in amazement! We will definitely do our tours with Andres when we come back, and I’ve already shared his info with friends and family!

Dear ah64fish Thank you very much for this wonderful review. The season is weird for me this time. Some days I am not sure at all if the weather would allow us to see anything due to other circumstances. It was on that way on your booking night. This also was a reason why I went to that area with horses. There is at least full darkness, and no mountains close to. But it happens as you described night just became your wish, so I am very happy for you to see it since this tour was one of the priorities to see in Iceland. Thank you again. We will see each other soon, I believe. Andres

Had an amazing tour with Andres! He was incredibly informative and worked extremely hard to ensure we saw the best possible northern lights! He supported in the surprise proposal to my girlfriend under the northern lights, and he was on hand to take photos of the moment for us. A dream come true for us both. Thank you Andres! You were fantastic, hopefully when we return we will go on another tour with you. Thank you!

Alex. I am very grateful to be with you on the proposal under the northern lights. The list of those engaged in that way is already long. For all of them including you, I wish very much joy in life, many children, happiness and harmony for many decades. Thank you for this review. I would be happy to travel with you two again, or even you three, four, or five as a family in next future. Andres
