What a great trip!!!

5.00Guna our guide was very professional and knowledgeable about all that we saw. She drove extremely well, was really friendly and gave a great commentary. Guna provided really clear timings between stops. What we saw was really interesting with absolutely stunning scenery. I found it a much more interesting and spectacular than the Golden Circle tour for instance. We were lucky enough to experience fabulous weather as well as getting to see seals in and out of the water. I would absolutely recommend this tour, this tour operator and specifically Guna.
Must do!

5.00This tour takes you everywhere on the peninsula, which seemed less touristy than the hotspots on your Golden Circle/South Coast tours, meaning often we had some spots all to ourselves! It was beautiful and our guide Dovilė even threw in an extra crater along the way since the weather was good passing by. I learned many cool facts from our awesome guide. 10/10 experience and very well worth it!!!
THOR Thw Tour guide!

5.00Ask for Thor — he’s exceptional Thor was an exceptional guide on our Snaefellsnes and Kirkjufell small‑group tour. He was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about sharing Iceland’s history and culture. Every stop — from the Black Sand Beach to the Red Roof Church to Arnarstapi Fishing Village came alive through his insightful stories and warm, authentic personality. He was professional, attentive, patient, and charismatic in a way that made the entire day feel personal and unforgettable. This was one of the best tour experiences we’ve ever had, and Thor was a huge part of why. Highly recommended.

5.00An excellent tour of the peninsula. Tom was an excellent, friendly and knowledgeable driver and guide. We had more than adequate time at each stop - and of course it was a huge thrill to see Kirkufjell for me, being a Game of Thrones fan. Highly recommended.
Beautiful day trip

5.00The sceneries along the way were magnificent. Each stop was beautiful and different. However, the time allocated to each site was a bit tight.

Amazing North Pernansular of Iceland

5.00The tour was amazing and kept on unfolding as we moved on from one landscape to the other, with our amazing and informative Ronin - almost feeling the the wind below our bus but Ronin kept us focused entertained with the saga of the north and the Vikings ♥️which I wanted to hear more before our next scheduled stop🌻
A great trip, but one attraction site was missing
robertbxs,Jan 9, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
2.00The trip was long. However, one of the attractions, Ingjaldshólskirkja, was not visited. The vehicle traveled along the Útnesvegur road but did not stop at the Ingjaldshólskirkja Church. This was incorrect, as the Ingjaldshólskirkja Church was clearly listed as a visit on the itinerary. Two female tourists of the group questioned the driver (who also acted as a guide) on arrival of Kirkjufell Mountain (following stop after Ingjaldshólskirkja Church), but he did not provide a reasonable explanation. TripAdvisor lists about a dozen tours to Snaefellsnes, and I chose this tour as seeing that the Ingjaldshólskirkja Church was clearly listed and accompanied by photos. I believe that travel agencies should adhere to the agreed-upon itinerary; any changes should be based on reasonable grounds and clearly explained to the tourists. I do believe that "Your Day Tours" should give us an explanation. Communication between travel agencies and tourists is crucial, as is mutual respect. Therefore, I cannot rate more than 2 stars.
