Hvmmsvik is a great way to end your day exploring the Golden Circle - This was a great trip! All the sights we visited were beautiful and we were given an ample amount of time at each stop to explore our surroundings. Hvmmsvik Spa is an astounding place to soak in geothermal pools and take in the natural beauty of your surroundings.

Joining Ingo's Wolfpack for the Day! 🐺🌈🍞 - Ingo was great!! Enjoyed being part of Ingo's wolfpack for the day, it was so wonderful to get to see all the sights and not worry about parking or access. The drop off locations were phenomenal, the surprises along the way (ice cream and feeding horses!!) were so wonderful, and ultimately I would recommend everyone does this tour if they're able! The best part is none of this was rushed, and it takes so much work and experience to make it seem seamless and easy, and Ingo did this beautifully! The time at the Hvammsvík Spa at the end of the day was one of my favorite experiences this year so far. Definitely opt for the spa, you won't regret it! Stunning landscape and wonderful experience all around 11/10 stars :)

Hits the attractions and a private thermal pool! - The tour hits most of the golden circle attractions. The guide shares lots of information along the way. Ending at the private hot springs really sets this one apart. A perfect ending to a great day. Bus is very comfortable and clean. Highly recommended.

Great intro to Iceland. - My husband and I closed out our Iceland trip with this tour and had a great time. It was a great introduction to the country and definitely made us want to return. Wish I had a better memory for names as our guide was so engaging and courteous!

Signed up for a 3-day tour and a1-day tour, recommend Christina’s tour - I signed up for a 3-day tour to south coast + golden circle and a 1-day tour to Snaefellsnes. The 3-day tour is actually a combination of a 2-day tour and a 1-day tour. My guide for the 2-day tour is Christina and she is my favorite guide among 10+ guides I met in Iceland. She gave us a lot of recommendations and information during her drive. She speaks English clearly with no accent. What I like most about her is that she has a white board, which shows all the stops she planned for the day and marks up all the toilet and snacks in the plan, so you can get better prepared. In my opinion, the tour experience depends on weather + tour guide + punctuality of other guests. I also signed up some tours from other company, I have to say the quality of big tour companies are more or less the same, what really matters is the tour guide. So I would prefer to sign up Christina’s tour if I come to Iceland again. Just one thing to notice is that the tour guide are rotating, means it’s hard to predict who is your guide when you sign up, I guess you can only know it by emailing NiceTravel before you book the tour…

Great Small Group Tour - Our tour had Christina for a guide. She was well-prepared and very personable. The stops at the geothermal spots were great; it was interesting to try hot spring eggs and bread at the first geothermal stop! The short hikes at the volcanic crater, waterfalls, and national park were well worth it, with some stunning views. Ending the day at Hvammsvik was great, though the timing of our tour meant that we weren't there at high tide. So we didn't get to have the full "ocean pouring directly into the hot spring" experience. Even so, the view and hot springs made it worth it.
