Iceland GCSE residential trip
Mathers-Satchel,Apr 16, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Ran my first residential trip to Iceland with GCSE students. We had Ritchie as our tour guide for the three days there and he was brilliant! He changed the itinerary when needed due to delays and tailored our experiences to the students. He was very knowledgable as well as approachable for the students. By the end of the trip the students were moaning how much they would miss him! I would 100% recommend this company!

5.00Our tours were an unforgettable experience, made truly exceptional by our guide Richie and our driver Tommy. Richie was really engaging, bringing each stop to life with fascinating stories and deep knowledge about Iceland’s history, geology, and culture. His enthusiasm was contagious and kept our student group interested throughout the week. Tommy complemented the experience perfectly with his driving and his experience of living locally which he shared with us all. Together, they made a fantastic team—professional, approachable, and clearly passionate about what they do. Thanks to them, the tour felt personal, informative, and thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended!
Top draw from start to finish!

5.00We (adult son and mother) were on the tour together. Our tour guide Tony told us many interesting facts and things during the journey between the individual destinations, very informative. The time range of the tour was also great, pick-up and drop-off worked wonderfully. All of the goals were spectacular, to say the least (see photos). All in all, absolutely recommended!

Nature’s Triple Treat: Steam, Splendor, and Serenity
sankaralingamk2023,Apr 14, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Iceland’s raw energy is a masterclass in beauty. Watching Strokkur launch a towering jet of water is a heart-pounding spectacle, while the majestic roar of Gullfoss offers a humbling sense of detachment from the everyday world. The perfect tactical finish was the Lagoon. Sinking into the mineral-rich warmth provided a total system reset, melting away the Icelandic chill. Between the volcanic fire and the glacial mist, this circuit is a sensory overload that leaves you feeling small yet completely recharged. It is nature’s most rewarding "Triple Treat"—a five-star encounter with the elements that I’d repeat in a heartbeat.
