The best - Jon at BR Tours was so much better than those crowded busses, the van he took my family of 8 in had plenty of room, and he customized our south coast tour to spend time visiting the best sites that we wanted to see, and he knows how to beat most of the big crowds and plan your trip for the best experience.

Incredible Private Tour Experience for a Larger Group - To avoid summer crowds and the coach buses our cruise was loading up, our group of 9 chose the South Coast private tour and it was AMAZING!!! Siggi was our driver and escorted us through an incredible itinerary of waterfalls, lush landscapes, and the beautiful basalt black sand beaches. We even added a hot dog stop, fish and chips stand, and lamb stew and cake to keep everyone satisfied throughout the day. Jon was so easy to work with in creating our itinerary and Siggi was the perfect driver for our family with his personal stories and videos to add to what we were seeing. He dropped us off at Sky Lagoon to end day 1 relaxing and then picked us up at the ship to do another half day together the next morning. I highly recommend booking a custom trip with Jon - he and Siggi will guarantee you'll have a lifetime of memories.

Book BR Tours for your private guide to Iceland! - If you are looking for a private guide I highly recommend Jon from BR Tours Beyond Reykjavik - Private Tours Iceland. He picked us up from the airport at 6 am and took us to breakfast and then to the Blue Lagoon. He then picked us up hours later and took us to our hotel. Amazing northern lights tour that night where we were only ones in the area. We did the Golden Circle the next day and he dropped us at Sky Lagoon after. Finally we did the South Coast tour. (with hidden non bus tour stops). Yes we got lucky with the weather and northern lights but Jon was a great guide and always in a good mood. We had 8 people in a very comfortable Mercedes Sprinter van that could have held more people. Pricing was reasonable for what was offered. (got quoted much higher from other guides). He was also very responsive. And he’s a great photographer! 5 stars

Best Tour Group EVER - This was the best trip my friends and I have ever taken. The 5 of us are in our mid 20's and we came to Iceland for a quick 3 day winter trip. We did the 3 day South Coast of Iceland Private Trip with Jon! He picked us up from the airport in an extremely comfortable VW van and was a phenomenal driver the entire trip. Jon is extremely flexible with planning your trip before arriving as well as during the tour. He knows all the best places to go to get the full experience without getting stuck in touristy spots. He made all of the accommodation bookings at phenomenal hotels. Honestly nothing could have gone better for us. There's a reason he gets such high reviews! I will be recommending him to anyone I know looking to go to Iceland!

Perfect 4 day Private WinterTour Iceland - Our experience with Jon and BR private tour was perfect from when I first contacted Jon until he dropped us off at the airport. Jon helped us craft a personalized itinerary that made it possible for us to do everything we wanted and quite a few extras without ever feeling rushed. We got to do the Golden Circle, South coast, Black Sand beach, Glacier Lagoon & Small Ice Cave Tour, Diamond Beach, Reykanes Peninsula with the new volcanic flats and so much more. We have dietary restrictions and Jon was able to find the perfect place to stop every time. Our trip was fantastic and I highly, highly recommend booking with Jon.

Amazing time and very well organised - We did a 2 day trip with BR Tours and we had Arni as our guide. Dealing with Jon to make the booking was stress free and itinerary was left In his capable hands. We got to see and do so much and had the best time. Arni was very knowledgeable and took us to places not included in the itinerary which my girls absolutely loved. We would not have seen hardly as much as we did had we of gone alone. Thank you very much!!

2 fantastic days at Landmannalauger and Thorsmork with the family! - We are a family of 4 with 2 young kids (10 and 7) and we had 2 fabulous days with Arni exploring Landmannalauger and Thorsmork. Arni was so knowledgeable about the culture and environment. He was very laid back and flexible and allowed us to explore various sights at our own pace and adapt the itinerary on the fly as needed. We can’t recommend him enough!

Wonderful tour, well worth your money - Jon was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. We had an amazing tour of the south coast with a lovely local Icelandic lunch and many sights to see. Jon had timed the tour perfectly so that we did not have to wait anywhere and we really enjoyed ourselves. Really a great tour!

Jon and BR Tours are the best. Book with confidence. You will be happy. - We just used Jon from BR Tours for 6 full days touring in Iceland. We were two families of 3 and I must says Jon is the absolute best guide. He knows what he’s doing and all of his recommendations were absolutely perfect. We had an incredibly memorable experience and we know it would not have been anywhere the same had we not used Jon from BR Tours. He took us to incredible off the beaten path places as well as the most popular places. The best excursions he coordinated were the zodiac tour in the glacier lagoon and the kayak tour with the icebergs.
We are tough people to please but Jon exceeded our high expectations exponentially. Use him- plain and simple.

Amazing Day Tour of South Iceland - Had an excellent day tour! Weather was not the best but Jon did really make the most of it by making sure we prioritised the glaciers over waterfalls (which we wanted). Lunch stop recommendation was excellent and just no complaints except for the weather which we can’t control. Car was very comfortable and Jon was very nice and knowledgeable on all sorts of topics. Highly recommend using again!
