Highly recommend! - We ended up having a private tour and I 100% recommend this service and our guide. Not only did we see amazing sites, but our guide shared his knowledge and insight along the way. Our kids we are 18 and 13 had the best experience and so did we. Definitely 5 star service.

Great trip for first time to Iceland. - Antonio was a great driver with plenty of knowledge to share, in a fun way. The places we visited are amazing. We did have some boulders rolling down at the glacier, but we managed to avoid them. You can't go behind the water falls in winter..understandable, but we'll just have to come back.

Perfect day out with a wonderful guide! - Antanas went above and beyond for us on our Southcoast tour. We ended up with a private tour and he made it so special and is a very chatty, funny and kind man! 10/10 service with a smile. The sights you will see are breathtaking and he even did some additional stops as we weren’t able to go to one of the stops due to it not being safe with the weather conditions. I would 100% highly recommend this tour and would definitely look into their other tours that this family run company provide. He even provided us with the use of crampons which meant we weren’t slipping over like skittles on the ice. In Iceland it’s not mandatory that you tip and he was so shocked when we wanted to give him a tip even offering to give the money back but you could see it really meant a lot. This tour was one of the highlights of our trip so thank you so much again! I just hope he sticks to his word and works for another 24 years as a tour guide - even if it is to escape the wife! ;)

Anton was entertaining and very informative!! Highly recommend!! - Anton was an excellent guide with lots of funny anecdotes and interesting facts about Iceland which made the journey easy and entertaining! We managed to hit most of the destinations before the big buses which made seeing the sights much more enjoyable! Being a small group made it much slicker, Anton also provided crampons for us to use which was a nice touch and much needed - we saw lots of people slipping without them. The Glacier for me was the stand out must see but everything was just beautiful and I would highly recommend!

South coast minibus tour - The whole tour was great, the Glacier was a real ‘wow’ but there were so many amazing sights to see! Thomas our driver and guide was brilliant and gave us so much information throughout the day, plus he planned which sights to see when, according to the weather etc. Being in a minibus was also a plus point and as a small group, we all got along well and enjoyed the experience together. A brilliant day!

Wonderful day on the South Coast! - Antonin(?) our tour guide was wonderful. We couldn’t go to one of the places on the tour because of the weather so he allowed extra time at others. We say a lot of waterfalls, black sand beaches, and glaciers.
