Private Tour Golden Circle and South Coast - Top notch service. Friendly on time reliable and flexible. Caring on customers and you can trust them. They are experienced operator and knowledgeable. We also used their airport transfer service. Driver arrived earlier waiting for us. Good value and highly recommended.

Amazing tour with Anton! - Another great tour with Back to Iceland Travel! This was our 2nd tour with Anton and it was just as great. Breathtaking scenery, paired with some interesting stops at a tomato farm and dairy farm for icecream (yes, you even need icecream in Iceland!). We loved Anton's sense of humour and his knowledge of interesting facts. The golden circle is a must-see in Iceland. We definitely caught the Iceland Virus and we'll be back - and we would definitely use the services of Back to Iceland Travel again!

We learned a lot - There was a waterfall on the later part of the tour that seemed to form its own sort of aqueduct between two rock walls before falling down a second waterfall. It was a good walk and a beautiful spot.

Thank you Anton for a lovely day! - Kudos to the company! The day before our tour we were contacted to let us know we would be the only ones on the tour so our driver would be picking us up in a CRV instead of the usual van. I am so happy that we were still able to take this tour; many other operators may have cancelled due to a low amount of participants. Anton, our guide was a very professional gentleman. It was nice to feel like we had our own private tour. He made our tour experience a very positive one. We did not feel rushed at all and were able to see everything at our own pace. He told us a lot of information about the country and what it was like to live in Iceland.

What a phenomenal experience - We spent 2 days on the Golden Circle and then the South Coast tours with our guide Thomas and what a fantastic 2 days it was! The Mercedes sprinter minibus is perfect for seeing this wonderful country and we were in very small groups ...nearly a private tour! Thomas went above and beyond, giving us a real insight into each and every place we visited. He made it a fantastic experience and he welcomed us back on day 2 like we were old friends! His hospitality was second to none! Thank you Back to Iceland!

Golden Circle with Tómas - A good time. Tómas was very knowledgeable and did the tour “his way,” which ended up being great. I’d recommend this tour to anyone.

Great Tours and Tour Guide - We did 3 small group minibus tours with Back to Iceland--Golden Circle, South Coast, and West Coast. We were on a bus that sat 13, but never had more than 8 passengers on any day, so there was lots of extra space for all of our stuff. The bus was clean and comfortable, and equipped with USB plugs and wifi. Anton was a wonderful driver and guide. He was super thoughtful and brought ponchos for the rain or waterfall mist, as well as crampons for the icy walks. Each day he made sure to make stops for coffee, snacks, and bathroom breaks. He made tasty food recommendations as well. You can't go wrong with Back to Iceland.
