Gorgeous waterfalls in the highlands - Small group means faster travel and more time at locations. This was a beautiful tour of several gorgeous waterfalls. Our guide was very pleasant! The lunch stop at the highlands center was also very nice, with a small but good selection of food. Don't skip out on this tour!

A great adventure - We had a great time exploring the highlands. The tour takes you off the beaten path to find some hidden treasures. Our guide (whose name I can’t remember) did an amazing job.

Outstanding experience - We spent an amazing day in Thor's company. He's a really funny and dedicated guide and he brought us to places not so many day tour operators have in their catalogue. Everything was perfect, what else can I say ? Takk fyrir Thor !

Magic Hidden Gem - I cannot stress enough how this private tour with Iceland in Motion is a hidden gem and worth every penny spent. Thor and his colleagues provide a personal experience for small parties away from the principal tourist trails with exhilarating views that exceed golden circle highlights. The trip was so spectacular that I have taken it twice, once in 2022 and once this year. If you choose this excursion with Iceland in Motion, I know you will be awestricken by the sights of the high country and the connection to Icelandic history provided by Thor and his guides. After three trips to Iceland and numerous excursions, this is far and away the best of all!

First timers waterfall tour - This tour was amazing. The convenience of easy pickup and drop off made it really easy. Our guide, Thor, is extremely knowledgeable and provided so much information and wonderful stories throughout the tour. We had numerous stops for restrooms and a break for lunch (provide your own or purchase from the nature center). Our only critique was that if you were sitting in the back, it was difficult to hear him tell stories of Iceland. Even when he used a speaker it was very muffled.
