Bjarni was very... - Bjarni was very knowledgeable and professional. He was very flexible. We were traveling with a five year old and he was very accommodating. He told us many interesting stories about Iceland’s history and culture. 10 out of 10!

The Golden Circle Tour Done Right! - This the first of our two days with Bjarni. He is incredibly knowledgeable on the area, and I’d recommend him for any Iceland tours. While our tour included the “main attractions” of the Golden Circle, Bjarni also took us to a few lesser known sites such as an inactive crater, a place when the locals bake bread underground, and an impromptu pit stop at a great tomato farm. We started before other tours, which kept us in front of the crowds all day. What sets Bjarni apart is his stories. From his experiences of living on a sheep farm in the area to his icelandic folktales, any time in the car went by quickly! This was a highly memorable trip as a result of Bjarni!

Extensive and informative tour - Bjarni was an excellent guide hitting all the high spots and more. Waterfalls, geysers, craters, original parliament, merging of the European and North American plates, tomato hothouse. Bjarni provided background and added value. He gave us suggestions and options.

Awesome Day with a Great Guide - Absolutely great day! We were able to visit all the main sites of the Golden Triangle. Our guide somehow managed to time each visit to avoid big bus crowds. We even saw a few extra stops. Guide had wonderful knowledge about everything and was extremely interesting. Especially loved hearing about some of the bizarre Icelandic fairy tales. His English was excellent and he had a microphone so everyone could hear him while he kept his eyes on the road. Awesome day with a great guide.

Great way to view Iceland and get to know the people - Beautiful experience. Our guide went above and beyond to make the trip as pleasant as possible. He took the time to add some extra stops and told amazing stories along the way, ensuring we got to see everything while getting a nice background of Iceland and its people. Simply a must do!

Stunning views - We got sunning views of the waterfall and it's well worth the visit. Knowledgeable local guide. The waterfall is quite busy most of the time, but you can still quite easily get good views. The weather can be brutal depending on when you go. The geysers are hit and miss. Sometimes nature doesn't perform. Still really worth going. Beautiful scenery on the way in.

Excellent tour - This is an outstanding tour. We were in awe of all the beautiful scenery. From the magnificent grandeur of the Gullfoss falls, to the visually stunning Kerid Crater, the serene beauty of the Faxi waterfall, the highly active Geysir, to the remarkable volcanic landscape of gorges, waterfalls, and lakes of Thingvellir National Park. The experience was amazing and exceeded all of our expectations. Bjarni, our guide, was knowledgeable, personable, and easy going. We learned a lot about Icelandic history and their folklore. Bjarni also shared with us many of his experiences growing up in Iceland. We highly recommend this tour.

An awesome day on the Golden Circle Drive. - We enjoyed the private tour very much. Pjarni was a great guide. We enjoyed the three waterfalls most of all. Also, we made a pit stop at the Frioheimar Tomato Farm Greenhouses. Very interesting. The Kerio Crater with its Red cliffs and blue pool was very pretty as well. We had lunch at the Efstidalur Farmhouse Restaurant. Good food and homemade ice cream. We treated our guide to lunch. Our guide took the drive counterclockwise instead of the usual clockwise, so we avoided most of the crowds and tour buses. It was a day well spent.
