5.00This two-hour ride from Mjodd bus station to the ferry port at Landeyjahofn was smooth and comfortable. All stops were clearly announced. It was on time.
True freedom to visit the Westman Islands

5.00Fantastic bus connector service. Our bus was clean, the driver got us to the ferry terminal on time and we really enjoyed our trip with this operator. We hope others take advantage of this connector service as once your on the island you can use the hop-on/hop-off bus or taxis to go around in your own time without having to stick to a tour guide group.
This was the highlight of our honeymoon to Iceland!

5.00We was so grateful to Magic Iceland Travel. Our previous tour operator dropped out (not Magic Iceland Travel) and we really wanted to go to the Westman Islands. Thankfully Magic Iceland Travel picked us up from our hotel and got us to the terminal on time, not only that they even took us to a little waterfall before the trip which was the cherry on top of a fantastic trip. The office is very fast to respond to email queries and we was very happy to use this service and hope others do in the future! If you’re looking to go to the Westman Islands without having to worry about a tour guide do it! We found taxis and the hop-on bus was even better than going via a tour bus and using the transfer service by Magic Iceland Travel made this all possible. We saw Puffins, We saw Whales, We hiked up a volcano all in ONE day! It’s worth it! If you’re on the fence do it!
Easy breezy, comfortable and fast.

5.00I did a return coach trip from my hotel in Reykjavík to the ferry port at Landeyjahöfn on the south coast (to then take the ferry over to Heimaey in Vestmannaeyjar). You buy your return ferry ticket on top, as you’d expect. It’s not much. The Magic Iceland Travel transfer bus was a modern Mercedes executive 16-seater. All mod-cons, like wifi, USB power sockets, suuuper comfy seats. Our driver was a nice young guy called Janek. He was calm, friendly and professional. We got to the ferry port way ahead of schedule. And on the return to Reykjavík too. So happy. Drop off (& pick up) from my hotel was a godsend. No messing around with transferring at the BSI bus interchange in suburban Reykjavík. This was just door-to-door. So comfy, definitely with the couple of extra kronur / GBP to have this exec service (& save myself about 2 hours on the return time on a series of public buses!). Cheers, team!
Everything was great!

5.00I had a great experience. I arrived at the port before the trip to Vestmannaeyjar. It was great talking to the driver Janek about life and tourism in Iceland. The journey was efficient and safe, departure on time.
Very good transfer!
