Memorable Golden Circle Tour - We loved our trip to Thingvellir national park, Gulfoss, Geysir, and Kerid Crater. There couldn't have been a better way to end the day with a trip to the Blue Lagoon. Our guide Kiki was the best -- he was friendly, funny, and had lots of stories to tell. He kept us on track and gave helpful advice.

Walter and this tour were AWESOME!! - Walter was the best!! My husband and parents really enjoyed ourselves. The day was well paced and included so many unbelievably beautiful sights. It wasn’t cheap but definitely worth the money. I would pick a highlight, but the whole day was fabulous!!

Tight fit in the tour vehicle. - Let me start with saying how very much I enjoyed the Golden Ring tour, stops, and guide. No complaints at all. We had plenty of time at each stop. Guide was a bit chatty, but I just couldn’t help falling for him as the day went on. He was so personable, knowledgeable, and took time getting to know everyone.
Take this opinion for what it’s worth, I selected a tour with max 19 people thinking I’d prefer a smaller group. As it happened, we were one of the last to be picked up and spent 10-11 hours jammed in that 5 seat back row of a 19 seater van. I was uncomfortable, made a bit worse because I have a tendency to get motion sickness and many of the roads are winding.
In retrospect, I think a larger bus would have been more comfortable for me. Again, this is just my opinion and passing info to folks comparing group size and cost.
