Fabulous! - Our guide, Gummi, is a native Icelander who clearly loves and knows so much about his homeland! It was like traveling with a (cheerful, earnest) university professor! Wow! We feel so fortunate to have had Gummi as our guide! The trip was wonderfully paced and great fun. Well done!

Great day tour of the golden circle and the secret lagoon - We had a great tour, and the operator was very flexible with changing the dates at the last minute, which was very much appreciated. The tour guide Stefan (not sure of the spelling) was great company and gave us lots of interesting information and insight. I'd recommend it!

Best day trip ever! - We loved all our stops! The scenery exceeded our expectations! Glad that the secret pool was included! We’re all sure it was more enjoyable than the newer, more upscale and commercial ones! Rakel was a wonderful guide and host!! She gave perfect info and advice to make each stop the best possible experience; invited questions and gave knowledgeable answers; told just enough history and geology without rambling or getting boring! Rakel’s enthusiasm for Iceland was contagious and her love of her country was infectious! Thank you for a wonderful day!

Fascinating - Our guide Gummi was top notch. He was a wealth of information and gave us nuanced details not only about the sites we visited but also about the mountains, volcanos, farms, weather, animals and people that make up Iceland. A wonderful experience. Highly recommend

Amazing Experinence! - We had an amazing tour. We loved the insights they brought about the history, customs, culture and language. The guides are personable and take time to answer questions. We loved the commentary as we drove on the bus. There was always something going on. The tour route to the hot pools, Þingvellir, goðafoss, and countryside was beautiful and memories will last forever. You will not be disappointed.

Skip the museum and take this tour! - My 19 year old daughter and I did this tour the day before our departure. Our tour guide (Gummi) provided such a rich retelling of Icelandic history that we pretty much could have skipped the National Museum of Iceland had we not gone the day before. I want to go back and spend more time at Thingvellir National Park - so much history and a geological wonder!

Tour was a single scramble - The tour was in English, we knew that in advance. Unfortunately, we don't speak English., but with some will from the guide could have prevented discrepancies in viewing times. The times for sightseeing were far too short, 5 minutes for Thingvellier, as well as for the crevasse and 20 minutes for the Gullvoss were far too short. It took at least 15 minutes from the parking lot to see the Gullvoss properly. The tour was a singular rant and didn't get us anywhere. The only plus point was the bath in Secret Lagoon.
