Day trip to see National parcs and secret lagoon - Evó was a great tour guide. He was both informative and engaging. After visiting a few national parks, we had a lunch break at one of Iceland’s biggest greenhouses. After, we spent two hours at Secret Lagoon. In total, we were gone from 9 am to 7 pm. The experience was comfortable and easy. I highly recommend.

Amazing waterfalls & secret lagoon - Our tour guide was Evó and he’s bonkers! But he found an amazing balance between rapid-fire bombardment of interesting information and reflective musical interludes with a bit of background to each artist. Oh - and we visited some cool tourist spots too, but you can read about them in the tour info… it was great.

The Golden Circle, Secret Lagoon and Frioheimar with Holiday Tours - Kristopher took us on an amazing adventure and we fell in love with Iceland’s natural beauty. The full day tour was relaxing because our guide was knowledgeable, funny and pointed out sites that the locals enjoy such as the vacation homes, water clarity for snorkeling, and how they decorate the head stones at the Cemetary to celebrate Christmas! The most beautiful scene was the waterfall. Our guide also explained the valley we hiked through separated the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Having lunch at the tomato farm was a memorable experience because the farmers used the natural resources, warm springs and technology to grow, pollinate and hand harvest over 2 tons of tomatoes a day! We also had the opportunity to see Icelandic horses up close. Tasting the rye bread that was baked in the volcanic sand was the best! It is sweet and is almost like a cake. We look forwarding to visiting again and enjoy the other tours with Kristopher and Holiday Tours day trips.

Excellent day out - Wow what an experience! We did the golden circle tour and it was fantastic from beginning to end. Evo our tour guide was great, he made the whole trip relaxed and enjoyable. He had great knowledge which he shared with us throughout the day. The small mini bus was very clean and comfortable. The sights we saw were amazing and have made our trip rememberable. Finishing off in the secret lagoon was a great end to a fantastic day.

Brilliant day - Driver was lovely, very knowledgeable and passionate about his country and history. Places we visited were amazing and was nice to split the day with physical and sightseeing then with relaxing in the afternoon at Fridheimar with delicious tomato soup and the spa. We were running ahead of time so the driver snuck in an extra waterfall for us not on the itinerary!

Beautiful Iceland - Nice, manageable group at 6 people. Empty seats in the mini-bus was comfortable. Easy to agree on time to meet up and we were able to stick to our schedule. Good spots included in the tour except the geyser. Smyrtir was a good guide…flexible, friendly, informative. We enjoyed the tour very much. It was a convenient and fun way to experience the tip of the iceberg of the beauty of Iceland. Thank you.
