Pingvellir National Park
This is the oldest working parliament in the world. There you will walk on old battlegrounds where the Vikings fought among each other in countless battles. Þingvellir is also a place where 2 continents meet. Imagine yourself strolling through a canyon which walls are made from 2 tectonic plates: European and American. A truly remarkable experience!
Bruarfoss Waterfall
Discover Bruarfoss, often called “Iceland’s Bluest Waterfall.” Its serene turquoise waters tumble over dark lava rocks, framed by vibrant moss, creating a truly magical scene. This hidden gem is a photographer’s paradise and a peaceful retreat into Iceland’s untouched wilderness.

Back to Iceland is a fantastic tour company. When our itinerary was changed by the cruise line, I contacted Vida in the office and she suggested a new expanded itinerary for us which worked perfectly. She was quick to respond and was very accommodating. Anton was our driver and guide. We had a lovely, modern, clean, huge vehicle allowing our party of 4 to spread out comfortably. It was equipped with WIFI and USB ports for charging. Anton picked us up early and kept us ahead of the crowds to ensure we saw all the highlights of the area. He is an excellent driver and we felt quite safe. He accommodated all our requests with his patient demeanor. Anton had an accent but we were able to understand him without any problem. He was very informative and provided information when it was appropriate.

Wonderful trip with gorgeous views and a lovely guide who filled us up with interesting historical and geological information. Each stop seemed to provide ample time to really explore each place.

Time for everything on our 9 hr adventure. Just the waterfall itself made it worth it. Our guide Mona kept us on track @ was very gracious sharing her knowledge.

This is a wonderful tour to see highlights of Reykjavik outside of the city. Our guide made a couple of extra stops to get close to Icelandic horses and a farm that makes awesome ice cream. We made it back to port on time with a few minutes to spare.

The Golden Circle is a wonderful day trip from Reykjavik - with more places to visit than time will permit. And the weather will almost certainly not cooperate for the entire day - but being on a small coach with a knowledgeable local guide made for a great tour.

The meeting with Anton was very interesting. We were lucky enough to be the only ones in the comfortable vehicle. At 8 we left the port and returned around 16:30. The places visited were wonderful and Anton explained everything in detail. We left the usual tours, we started the day at a mural where we were explained the geography of Iceland and the tectonic plate. Later we saw the volcano, then the greenhouse with tomatoes. So the classic golcen circle, waterfall of godafoss where we stayed for an hour with possibility to have lunch there but we had a packed lunch. Subsequently gyser about 40 minutes. Then ice cream view animals and finally the park where we stayed for 1h and a half about. Tour absolutely recommended! Friendly and helpful staff for any need

We had a great day today accompanied and guided by Antonio! The weather has been mild with us! This allowed us to visit all the sites planned in this excursion! We even had some extra stops thanks to our great guide! We recommend this excursion and it can be done without problems with children!

A great tour with an amazing guide. Anton was amazing, very informative, knowledgeable and whity. Got to see everything we wanted, learnt a huge amount of history and information. He went above and beyond; we were given ponchos and the use of crampons which were very much needed Would highly recommend this tour with this guide

We had an excellent tour with Antanas! We had plenty of time to enjoy each stop, never felt rushed, even with the shorter daylight. Wonderful sights, he shared lots of stories and information along the way, and clearly loves showing off this beautiful country. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
