Traveler reviews
Silver circle tour experience
Vlad was a fantastic tour guide! He was very attentive to details and always made sure everyone understood the directions, especially when we were hiking and needed to figure out which path to take. He would even run ahead to show us the right way and make sure nobody got lost. He was always helpful, well-prepared, and shared lots of interesting stories about Iceland along the way. You could tell he really cared about making sure everyone had a great experience. Really enjoyed having him as our guide!
An Extra-Special Day
My husband and I went on the one day Silver Circle tour with Nice Travel. We selected the Canyon Baths option instead of the Lava Caves, so our tour was actually called "Silver Circle | Day Tour to West Iceland with Canyon Ride & Secluded Thermal Baths," although there were people on our bus who were doing the Lava Cave version. We had a wonderful time. We particularly enjoyed the Lava Falls and Barnafoss waterfall, as well as the Husafell Canyon Baths. We were so lucky that only one other guest had chosen the canyon bath activity, so three of us had the baths all to ourselves, which was an amazing experience! Our guide was Kiki (Kristof). He was informative and interesting. He shared some great stories, such as telling about the 13 Santa Clauses and their scary mother, Gryla. He helped to make the day extra special. We enjoyed it immensely.
Silver Circle review
Guili was a knowledgeable (Reykjavik history), fun guide with a great sense of humor. I appreciated the nearby pickup location and dropped of at my hotel. Small group of 7, made the tours quick, easy and relaxed atmosphere. Spent a quite of time driving towards the “Silver Circle” area, but was worth the visit on this trip. Thank you :) -Julie, CA, USA
Safe, informative and fantastic day out with Sammi
A safe, informative and fantastic day out with Sammi our guide. Any bus was very comfortable with Wi-Fi and charging points. The Icelandic horse farm was enchanting with an informative presentation, the opportunity to groom and feed the horses and the home-made rye bread tasting. I had a terrific day
Waterfalls, hills, and...
Waterfalls, hills, and horses. The views were great and the horse farm was so much fun. Be sure and pet the dog who is in charge and demands belly rubs. The waterfalls were beautiful. It was quiet and not overly crowded.
