Addi was our tour guide for this experience and he was great. He was funny during the tour, and also whilst driving around from spot to spot he gave us some history and insight into Iceland which was nice to listen to. Would recommend the tour if you enjoy viewing the sights and also recommend Addi as your guide while taking you around. More than happy with the whole experience. Mike and Beth.
Great day in Iceland!

Great tour, stsrting at the Laxnes Horse Farm, where we had coffee and got to pet all the horses in the stables. The horseback tour had nice sunrise-colored snowy peaks in the distance. We crossed a river each way. Toes were cold by the end, so we were looking forward to warming up inside with coffee and sweets. The staff were very energetic, making jokes all the time. We then headed out on the golden circle tour. Petra, our tour guide was bubbly and kept us entertained with interesting Icelandic stories, while we were driving around the beautiful scenery, with mountains and lakes. Walking inside the rift at Thingellir to the place of the world's first parliament felt like going back in time. It was fun to try to match the rock formations from one side to those on the other and see the views on the sunny day. Geyser felt outerworldly, surrounded by steam, seeing bubbling water pools and witnessing the eruption going up 10s of meters up in the air. Finally, Gullfoss was a majestic view by sunset, The summer path was closed, but we got plenty pictures, trying to keep our fingers warm. Each landmark has a souvenir shop, toilets and restaurant. As a bonus, on the way back we got a glimpse at the northern lights. Our driver was kind to make an extra stop for us to take pictures. We got dropped off at the city center. A day packed full of beauty and discovery! Thank you!

I chose this trip as it included the Icelandic Horses & Tomato Farm. This far exceeded my expectations and was a wonderful experience. The tour guide was very friendky and knowledgeable and was happy to answer any questions. The Icelandic Horses were gorgeous and you were able to get close and stroke them. Also the tomato farm was wonderful & the food in the restaurant was excellent all based around tomatoes. The Golden Circle was stunning. Loved the whole day & thank you Bus Travel Iceland. I would recomend them & this tour to anyone visiting Iceland

An incredible and very rich day. We feel like we spent 3 days. In small groups, allowing for more flexibility. Our guide was great and captivating in telling the details of life in Iceland, with humor, and commenting on the landscapes we went through and created a relaxed atmosphere among the participants.
Totally recommend the Golden Circle with the horses

Our driver was very knowledgable about all aspects of the trip, friendly and eager to answer any questions we had, and did his best to cover all stops before sundown! He is a talented driver and handled the vehicle with expertise even when another driver cut us off in a dangerous situation. It was delightful to have a small group to share the experience with. The sights were amazing, the horses delightful, the greenhouse tour was very interesting and lunch was delicious!Delighted to have shared the journey with our driver.
Best tour of our trip!

Picked up on time at our hotel. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, supportive and entertaining. Plenty of stops and accommodations along the way. Iceland horse presentation very interesting and informative. Tour of greenhouse and lunch at the wine bar extraordinary. Return to Reykjavik and tour of National Park, geysers, tectonic plates well done and fit in before sunset!
