Helge was an excellent... - Helge was an excellent tour guide (and Eugene the bus driver deserves a shout-out as well). Helge's knowledgeable commentary on the history of Iceland as well as Iceland's natural beauty and mythos added a lot to our experience. He also had good viewing tips and kept the (admittedly lengthy) trip running on time with his clear instructions. But the real star here is the scenery and the wildlife -- it's Iceland in a nutshell, with stunning glaciers, mountains, black and gold sand beaches, sea cliffs, and dramatic landscapes of all types. It's a photographer's delight (perfect for Instagram posts). A highlight was seeing grey seals lounging just offshore at Ytri Tunga beach. Highly recommend.

This was our favorite... - This was our favorite tour of the trip! Our tour guide Alain made what could have been a windy nasty day into a fun adventure. His narration, stories and overall personality brought the landscape to life. My nine year old especially wanted to shout out his history knowledge! This was through Bus Travel Iceland

Siggi - the funniest guide ever! - I’ve travelled to well over 50 countries and done many tours but this tour with Siggi was by far the best I’ve ever done. The stops on the tour are breathtaking and Siggi is the funniest and most likeable guide I’ve ever had. Loved his little gimmicks (the sheep gates) and all his stories, which are plentiful and entertaining. We shared so many laughs and learnt so much about Iceland. I had the best time.

Some stops take too much... - Some stops take too much time and the ones you like, not enough. It was windy and cold, but we made the best of it. Ritchie, our guide, was absolutely fantastic!! He made everything enjoyable. For me, it was more driving than actually enjoying, but we still had a great time! We are also thankful for our driver who drove through some rough weather. I do recommend seeing these sights, but definitely wait for the warmer months to do it. July would probably be phenomenal.
