This was an excellent tour and a true highlight of our trip to Iceland. We were on a cruise and only had a limited time in port, but this tour managed to pack in an incredible amount without ever feeling rushed. Each stop was timed really well, with just enough time to take in the views, get some great photos, and enjoy the experience without feeling hurried. Our guide, Ava, was phenomenal. She hardly played any music, which we actually appreciated. Instead, she spent nearly the entire drive sharing fascinating information about the scenery, history, and culture of the area. It made the time between stops engaging and informative. I had read a few complaints about bathroom access before booking, but the first three stops had restrooms available. The only stop that didn’t was the geothermal area, which was a quick viewing stop and didn’t feel like an issue at all. Overall, this was a fantastic way to experience the natural beauty of northern Iceland. The tour was well organized, the guide was outstanding, and we felt it was a perfect use of our limited time in port. Highly recommended.

This was a very nice tour. Iceland is a beautiful country and this tour is a great way to see the north. The terrain changes on the tour to very lush to almost like what Mars looks like. Eva our guide was very knowledgeable about her lovely country. Also if you are looking for where to meet up with your tour guide go to the wooden huts. There is a BusTravel Iceland hut. You check-in their and then wait for your bus.

We had a young lady named Steinunn. She did an amazing Job! She was very knowledgeable of the areas and gave us great info while traveling. She even played some music of the locals. Our driver Kalman was fantastic as well. The sites were amazing. Its a lot of walking so be prepared but you have to do it to really grasp the experience. The waterfalls was the best part.

This was a great experience. the places visited were unique and interesting. The only bad thing I would say is that we didn't get enough time at the Godafoss Waterfall. 30 minutes was nowhere near enough time for photos, and walking around the site.

Beautiful waterfalls, suggestive all the landscapes; listening to stories and legends enriches the experience. Our guide Nicoletta was wonderful, very welcoming. The sandwich for lunch was also included, with a bottle of water. Possibility at the end to get off in the city center in freedom. Highly recommended tour.
