Must See!! - From pick up to drop off this was an incredible tour with an amazing staff! My tour guide was Bjarni (I hope I spelled that right) and his personal knowledge and stories that accompanied the sights were so insightful and made the tour much more personal. We had fantastic weather when I went and every second of sitting in that bus was worth it! Amazing company and an even more amazing tour!! You have to do it on your trip to Iceland!!

Best tour guide ever - We did this tour with the best guide we've ever had. Hoskuldur was informative, funny, engaging and very knowledgeable about every site, Icelandic history, geology, and the cultural history of locations and sites. Every site was fabulous and we had plenty of time to enjoy them, take photos, learn and experience. The driver was brilliant and very safe, the bus was lovely and timing just right. Excellent value and thoroughly recommend this tour.

Waterfalls for Miles - We had the best guide in Iceland and I am ashamed I did not write down her name but as I remember her ex-husband is a singer in Iceland and I have included her picture!!
The Golden Circle is a tourist route in southern Iceland, covering about 300 kilometers looping from Reykjavík into the southern uplands of Iceland and back, we had booked this tour as part of package with Iceland Airlines. We had an amazing tour guide, she was knowledgeable, friendly and fun, the absolute best.
The tour took us to some of the most spectacular locations in Iceland, as with the weather in Iceland it changed several time over the course of the day, so dress warm!! Waterfalls, tectonic plates and scenery that will mesmerize you with its beauty and the best guides in the business, the Golden Circle tour is a must.

Amazing day - This tour lasts at approximately 9 hours and was worth every penny. Tour guide was very knowledgeable about everything along the trip, not just the locations we visited. This was our first trip to Iceland and Reykjavik excursions is definitely a 5-star group. Everything we booked with them was easy. They handled every detail like the pros that they are.

Greta time - Very long day but great experience. We stopped at a tomato factory first which could have been avoided as was not that interesting. Enjoy the red of the tour and the guide was vey informative on the coach. Well organised pick up and drop off system
