The South Iceland trip... - The South Iceland trip was amazing, exhausting but, amazing and Noi was a brilliant guide. We passed through some stunning landscapes, saw 4 volcanos (active but thankfully not today) 3 glaciers, 2 waterfalls and went to the beach, albeit not the sort most of you would enjoy. The Skogafoss waterfall was our first stop. We had the option of viewing it from above but given that I'm terrified of heights and the viewing platform was 570 steps up, I decided to view it's majesty from below 😂 The solheimajokull glacier up next. There was a bit of a hike to see it, but it was to far for me. I was really struggling to breath in the wind so I headed back to the coach. I was so disappointed as I was looking forward to seeing it. We had lunch at a lovely little village called Vik and then back on the road to the Reynisfjara black sand beach. This was breathtaking not only in its raw beauty but literally, it took my breath away. We got caught up in a blizzard which meant that visibility was low and told that we had to be careful not to go too close to the waves as they were sneaky and very dangerous. I didn't need telling twice. The noise of the waves crashing on the beach was truly something to behold. Our final stop was to see the Seljalandsfoss waterfalls which where lit up. With the naked eye the water looked like it was falling from the sky as you couldn't differentiate between the 2. The lights gave it a really eerie quality, but that didn't take anything away from just how spectacular it was. I cannot tell you how impressed I was, and as I said Noi was just a fab guide. He was really knowledgeable, funny and was really keen to answer any and all questions. A couple of personal anecdotes made it even better. The weather was horrible but our driver Jon was magnificent. I would highly recommend you to take this trip. *we weren't able to do the Northern Lights part as the weather was horrible to say the least.

Amazing tour, would highly recommend - Amazing tour, made some additional stops as it was lovely weather. There was a lot too see! Enough time at each site with plenty of refreshment stops. The tour guide and driver were lovely and shared interesting information along the tour. (Beggi and Mr T?) would 100% recommend this tour to all!

Great value, great guide! - We really enjoyed the tour and especially enjoyed Dave, our tour guide, and V-slav (sorry, I didn’t quite catch his name), our driver. I liked the commentary Dave gave…interesting to hear from an Irishman so enamored by this beautiful country. This was good value, which seems to be hard to come by here! I would love to do this tour again in the summer. The falls, glacier, and black sand beach were impressive. The beach was my favorite! Pickup was easy, comfort stop was great, lunch in Vik was yummy. The only thing I would change is getting to spend more time in Vik, mainly to get a better photo of the little church on the hill.

Fantastic Success with great guides. - Fantastic tour. Of course mostly because we saw lights but a big part of it was the tour guide Victoria was very good and high energy. She really pushed driver Wieslaw (son of Hemrik) to go different places and he was very great to do so. She took pics for us, shared stories, creepy Christmas folklore and lullaby's popular in Iceland and ever went through naming children's and how names are made. We had four tours while here and these were the best guides and drivers out of all we did. Thank you so much!!!!! And what an awesome display of the lights!! Will treasure those pics for rest of our lives.

disorganized Poor quality - Not good experience, the company just thinks about money, they do massive tours with lots of people and zero quality, the bus was very dirty and the Wi-Fi and charges were not working. We spent s lot of time waiting people come back to the buses in every stops, and the pick up meeting were a disaster since the company had more customers than seats and we spent so many time on the bus stop to figuring out what could they do. I really regretted to left my last day in Iceland with that company. The quality was too low compare with the previous companies tours that I have used days before in Iceland.
