Unforgettable hike - We had an unforgettable day with Tomasz on the south coast, the highlight of which was the hike on the Sólheimajökull glacier. It’s not just a hike up the glacier itself, we explored moulins along the way and Tomasz is super knowledgeable about what you’re doing and seeing. You will see some stunning waterfalls on the tour as well as the famous black sand beach, but it’s worth following his advice and taking some extra time to go out to the peninsula to see the rock formations and the beach stretching out in the opposite direction.

Wow - An absolutely unforgettable experience from start to finish. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and brought every location to life in a way that made the most impressive sights I’ve ever seen even more special. The level of customer care and dedicated planning was outstanding everything felt seamless, personal, and thoughtfully tailored to us. If you’re unsure who to go with, this small bespoke company is truly the way to go. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Amazing Glacier Experience - We are a small family of three from California. We had a private tour in the South Coast including a glacier hike on Solheimajokull Glacier with our incredible guide Tomasz on July 1st, 2025. It was an amazing experience and far beyond our expectations. Tomasz is very knowledgeable and passionate about his job. He is so good and friendly with young kid as well. Our nine-year old completed the hike with no issues and really enjoyed it! Highly recommended. You need to look no further.

Amazing Tour - Thomas did an amazing job! We saw many different sites and the glacier hike was fantastic. He adapted the tour to fit the needs of our family. We also saw puffins and the basalt columns at the black sand beach. Would recommend this to everyone.

An Amazing Day! - An amazing day spent with an amazing guide in an amazing country, Iceland. Thomas took the two of us all along the South shore of Iceland for the day. The views were incredible! Thomas was a very kind and entertaining host/guide. He made sure we were well taken care of and adapted the tour to our specified needs. Not only was he kind and informative, but our safety was his primary concern when we hiked on the glacier. And the glacier hike was the highlight of the day......it really let's you feel the wonder and beauty of Nature. An experience not to be missed!!

South Coast Adventure - We did this tour our second day in Iceland with Tomasz. It was an amazing experience. We saw so many beautiful waterfalls, the black sand beach, and steps away from the glacier (we had opted out of the actual glacier hike, but after spending the two days with Tomasz, I would totally would have trusted him to take us on the glacier). My daughter made a special request to see puffins, and Tomasz made it happen. He really is a an incredible guide, teaching us so much about Iceland culture, the nature, the volcanoes and geothermal infrastructure, and history of the country. He was always responsive during the planning and gave us an unforgettable trip. He also takes pretty great pictures.
