Thomas the amazing tour guide!!! - I had the pleasure of joining a tour guided by Thomas, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! His excellent communication skills made every part of the experience engaging and informative. I learned so much about the rich history, traditions, and unique aspects of native Icelandic culture, all explained with clarity and enthusiasm.
Thomas’s time management was impeccable, ensuring we made the most of every stop without feeling rushed. He clearly has a deep understanding of the area, taking us to not only the iconic locations but also some hidden gems that felt truly special. His knowledge of the best spots for photography was a huge bonus, allowing us to capture breathtaking moments we’ll treasure forever.
If you’re looking for a professional, knowledgeable, and personable guide who enhances every aspect of your Icelandic adventure, Thomas is the one. I highly recommend this tour company and Thomas for anyone looking to explore Iceland in the best way possible!

Fantastic tour, highly recommend! - We were traveling to Iceland on a cruise and decided to stay in Rejkjavik for a few days post cruise. We opted for the private Golden Circle day tour with Thomas and this was by far the best tour we took, much better than the cruise shore excursions. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see outside of the city. We saw many sights and had a great time with Thomas. He is very professional, knowledgeable, down to earth and fun to be with. I had some communication with him prior to arriving and he worked our group of 4 to find the right tour for us. He was at the hotel to pick us up promptly at the agreed upon time and always responded promptly to my messages. The private tour was definitely worth the money, the car was very comfortable, with water and snacks included. I would definitely use this tour company if I am ever back in the area!

Great tour! - Thomas was great! Unfortunately, the weather was against us so we didn't get to do everything planned. Tom was able to get us a refund for the cave tour thankfully! We absolutely enjoyed our time.

Unforgettable experience with an incredible guide! - Thomas was an excellent Guide. His knowledge was invaluable. He explained so much and showed me so many amazing unique things about Iceland. He made the trip something I will never forget. I learned so much and even some Icelandic words. Thomas is the guy to go to if you truly want to experience and learn about Iceland and how marvelous of a country Iceland is. I’m already planning another trip back to visit Iceland and Thomas. Truly amazing!

Incredible experience with an amazing guide - Thomas was an incredible guide. He was extremely knowledgeable, fun, accommodating, and great company to spend a day with. It felt like hanging out with an old friend. He explained so much about Iceland, taught me some language, talked about the history and the future of Iceland. We explored some amazing places in Iceland, seeing things I will remember forever and took pictures to share with friends. He also took me to see the geothermal power plant, something that I thought was so cool. Iceland is an incredible country, the people are wonderful and Thomas was the best guide I could have ever asked for. I will be coming back to visit Thomas in the future.

Awesome Visit to Iceland 10 out of 10! - If you are looking for a tour that takes a big bus and is extremely crowded with an inexperienced and boring guide corralling you to the usual tourist traps with no regard for your persona needs, then definitely do not book Thomas. On the other hand, if you want a once in a lifetime experience with a charismatic, knowledgeable, adventurous guide who is flexible and always on time, Thomas is for you! My wife and I and two friends traveled to Iceland for 3 days and spent them with Thomas. On Day 1 he promptly retrieved us from the airport, coordinated an afternoon at the Sky thermal spa, and topped off the evening with a champagne toast while viewing the Northern Lights (he encouraged us powering through the first night as it was our greatest opportunity to see them - they did not disappoint). Day 2 was a full day being driven around the Golden Circle during which we viewed jaw dropping water falls, ate at an indescribable sustainable tomato farm, and learned about the history and geology of amazing Iceland. On our final day with surprised Thomas with a last minute request to alter the day’s schedule - the result was what can only be described as a bucket list day. Four good friends on a glacier with a profoundly capable guide - 10 out of 10 day all thanks to Thomas.

Quite literally a perfect experience, highly recommend! - Thomas was an excellent tour guide and I am so happy we booked with him! My mom and I only had a few days in Iceland, and we were able to see and learn SO much by spending the day with Thomas. Not having to worry about planning or driving was amazing, and Thomas is extremely knowledgable! It was absolutely the best way to experience the Golden Circle and I would highly, highly recommend.

Golden circle private tour - Due to weather we needed to make last minute changes to our itinerary. And somehow all the stars aligned and we were able to book EV Travel. Thomas was a fantastic driver and guide. He was responsive to my email query and helpful in making our itinerary happen. I appreciated his honesty and giving options as to what is best for the day. His knowledge of Iceland is fantastic, his stories great and his recommendations well received. I would highly recommend EV Travel to anyone visiting Iceland for an amazing experience.

Spectacular Trip with Exceptional Guide! - We researched several companies to lead our group of four on a one week tour of Iceland and from the first email, Thomas of EV Travel rose to the top. In the planning stage, he was extremely responsive and he crafted for us what we'd come to discover was the perfect itinerary. We were simply blown away! Iceland is a magical place, with the most pristine and spectacular natural environment, and it was a privilege to experience it through the eyes of someone with a deep knowledge of and a profound passion for the country. In addition to showing us all the 'greatest hits,' Thomas led us through rivers, caves, valleys, waterfalls and glaciers to behold breathtaking secret places that you'd never find on your own. We were left with a heightened respect for Mother Nature and were happy to be touring in (immaculate!) electric vehicles and we love that Thomas will plant a tree in Iceland for each tour that we took. Though the conditions were not present for us to view the aurora borealis during our week, we realized that you don't need to see the Northern Lights to find yourself on Cloud 9!
