Awesome Tour - Great tour with a great tour guide, Albert! We loved seeing all of the sights and learning some history too! Only complaint I have is that it had to end!

Golden Circle + Greenhouse Visit - This tour was amazing! Our tour guide was awesome and provided us with so much information (both in English and German - impressive!). We had plenty of time in each location (though I wish we had 30 more minutes at the Greenhouse), and were able to see so much in one day. The tour is long, but it didn't feel too long because of how it was broken up. Would highly recommend.

Amazing experience! - We had a great trip ! It was our first day in Iceland with this tour and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide - Gunnar Ragnarsson . We were super engaged and involved throughout the long day outside . The schedule was impressive and planning was done on point . Also Gunnar kept us fully entertained through the day with talks of history , geography of Iceland and his humour . I loved that we all laughed thanks to him.

Brilliant tour - Really good tour. Picked up from hotel and travelled on to Golden Circle on a comfortable coach which had WiFi & phone charging point. The driver & tour guide, Bjorn & Brian were excellent- very friendly, knowledgeable & helpful

Tomatoes are Special in the Land of Waterfalls - The visit was very interesting due to the explanations of each location and the history of Iceland made us want more. Gunnar Ragnarsson was an enjoyable guide that kept us entertained for the entire trip. The driver, Bjorne, looked after us quite carefully.

Iceland, beautiful and intriguing! - Gunnar i think was our guide. Forgive me if i am wrong. He was knowledgeable and made the trip interesting. He took us to tomato hot house, so enlightening. His knowledge of the country’s history was in depth, he also knows when to stop talking, gave us time to digest the commentary before starting a new one.

Nice view and tour. Recommend. - A bit Hard to hear what Albert where saying if you are sitting in the back of the bus. Telling alot of fun facts about iceland. No food on the tour. Take snacks with you. Good amount of people. Maybe 50 % of the bus were full. No littercans by the walking path.

Mixed excursion - As part of this day trip, we visited several stations with a coach and a tour guide: the Friðheimar greenhouse, the Geisir region, waterfalls, a geothermal bath (Fontana) and a national park. The length of stay varied depending on the location. At the geisirs we stayed for about an hour and a half, while the visit to the falls was the shortest with only 45 minutes. The Fontana geothermal bath was only approached briefly to let participants who had booked a different excursion combination get off. Overall, the trip convinced us only to a limited extent. Not all stops met our expectations, and the sometimes very long stays unnecessarily lengthened the day. Especially at the waterfalls we would have liked more time. However, it was particularly irritating that the excursion should take place in German according to our travel provider – but this was not the case.
