Excellent tour and guide for southern iceland - Anton was amazing, we got a private tour when everyone else cancelled and we decided to take our chances on the weather and it all worked out and we got to see the most beautiful part of the country. I was very impressed with the beauty and Anton was an efficient driver who avoided the crowds and kept us well informed on everything. Thank you Anton!

Best Tour Company in Reykjavik! - My extended family and I booked private tours from Reykjavik to Golden Circle, South Coast, and to Blue Lagoon through Back to Iceland. Attached photos are from all the different tours. We also booked all of our airport transfers through them. The owners and their other guides were all excellent! Cannot recommend them enough. They were prompt and provided a lot of information along the tour routes. The owner Anton was our guide for the South Coast tour and was especially great. Highly recommend Back to Iceland!

Best tour ever beyond excellent. - We did a South Coast tour with Anton of Back to Iceland tour. It was the best experience ever. He was extremely knowledgeable and a wealth of information on Iceland and the sights we saw. Also they were very accommodating for the tour as our cruise ship was docking late in the morning and was able to fit our schedule. You could not ask for a better tour company/guide and we highly recommend Back to Iceland.

Highly recommended small bus - Great tour… Anton, our tour guide/company owner, promise to get us back to the cruise ship in time and he did! We enjoyed the waterfalls and the hike to the glacier as well as his secret spot to spy some puffins.
