Traveler reviews
Helgi the saga master.
From pick up to drop off Helgi was awesome, his knowledge and storytelling would rival the saga poet's of Icelandic legend. An excellent operator and a great trip.
Beautiful experience
Extraordinary experience, you get to see the wild nature and magical locations from Iceland, our tour guide Helgi was genuinely nice and knowledgeable, he was punctual and was able to take us everywhere as promised, sill definitely recommend to friends and family!
Siggi is the best
My name is Lin Chen. Here I would like to thank our tour guide Siggi, who devoted so much to the trip and made our tour full of fun. He explained everything in detail, his sense of humor and kind attitude left deep impressions on us. I will come back again to Iceland because of him.
Great tour with unforgettable sights
Alain was the best guide, he knew so much about the history, culture and geography of Iceland! The Golden Circle was gorgeous but lunch at Fridheimar and seeing the Icelandic horses was definitely a highlight.
A wonderful Golden Circle tour with Alain
Alain was a wonderful guide. His extensive knowledge of the country and clear passion for his job was very obvious. He was friendly and very interesting to listen to. His knowledge and interest linguistics was incredibly helpful in understanding place names etc and my sons found this very interesting. The pace of the tour was excellent and it was really lovely to share lunch with him. He even sang us an Icelandic song on the way home. It was wonderful. We loved the kerið crater and it was really interesting to visit the tomato farm. My young sons really enjoyed the horses. Strokkur was fabulous, the drama of the eruptions is just great and it was brilliant to get to Thingvellir as the sun was setting. It was a wonderful educational experience and I’d book again in a heartbeat.
