Excellent tour

Ragnar was an excellent driver and guide. The small bus made it easier to move along and have more time at the sites. The only thing that there was not enough time to do was touch the glacier as advertised. This should be taken out of the description.

A must see day out

Great day seeing the waterfalls, glacier and hidden gems. The van was luxurious and driving very pleasant and informative without talking all the time. Long journey there and back but definitely worth it!!

South Iceland Highlights Tour

Wonderful full day tour of South Iceland to see beautiful waterfalls, a black sand beach and a glacier. The van was very comfortable. Our tour guide Sigi was insightful and provided great commentary. He had several raincoats available for those who needed additional protection from the non-stop rain.

Dream team tour guides

Sven the guide and Albert as driver were superb together ensuring safety and timeliness of each stop. My family were extremely satisfied with each stops, from waterfalls to black sand beaches and it was a great experience. Will recommend and book with this company.

Choose big buss

Small bus was uncomfortable to travel as young lads get one seat pench of two and then adult must to sit next to next side by side. Also little bus was not so soft to sit. Every pump hit to the spine. Views were lovely.

We are sorry that the seating and suspension made your journey uncomfortable. Your comments are useful, and we will keep them in mind when reviewing vehicle comfort for longer tours.
