Great experience with Bjorn and Anna - We went out snorkelling with Anna. She is so sweet. Caring, nice, and knows her business.
We then went for the golden circle tour with Bjorn. Honestly I didn’t have much expectation for this part, but Bjorn is the best. He is so passionate about his country and his job. He knows every single steam coming out of the land. He made this a really fun and meaningful tour, rather than another bus tour.

A geological wonderland - Would really recommend a his trip. I got to see all the amazing places in the golden circle with the bonus of a beautiful crystal clear morning snorkel. Anna looked after us in the water and Bjorn on the tour. It was great that as an Icelander Bjorn had lots of stories to tell and facts about the landscape. I really appreciated the bonus stops and bus tunes! Thanks everyone

Amazing sights - Juliana was a great guide. Interesting commentary. Nice that we could view the sights at our own pace. Shout out also to Vicky and Austin who were really good snorkeling instructors.

Great tour & snorkeling adventure - The minibus picked us up on time and was very clean and comfortable. Our guide, Jon, was very knowledgeable and shared information throughout the tour. I felt we had plenty of time at each of the beautiful sites.
Our snorkeling tour at Silfra was the highlight for me, as I had been wanting to do this for years! Our guides Vicky and Cecilia went over and above t make sure everyone was fitted in our suits properly and comfortable in the cold water. It was amazing!

Golden Circle and Silfra Snorkeling - Fantastic day! Well worth the price. Don't be afraid of water temperature. The crew did a great job in dressing us up for warmth.

Definitely recommended - Kevin was our guide, multilingual, competent and always a smile. The preparations were well organized, the whole team was helpful and very friendly. Groups per guide are limited to 6 people.
The photo section corner, which we could retrieve after only 4 hours, comprised about 120 photos which further reinforced the real impressions. For me it was a great experience, worth every penny.

- The trip was great. The snorkeling was worth the uncomfortable suits. The views underwater were spectacular, as Silfra has extremely clear water. We also saw a waterfall and went to a geothermal area, where we saw a geyser erupt. We were with the tour guide, Thales, for this trip and the previous two trips, so thank you very much for giving us a great experience. Overall the trip was amazing.

Once in a lifetime experience - The Golden Circle tour portion was good, not great. Our "tour guide" was pretty much just a bus driver. Didn't tell us much about the destinations. Just drove us there, gave a little bit of advice on where to go, a tiny bit of background on what we were seeing and then dropped us off and told us to meet back at the bus at a certain time. Got to the snorkeling portion and that's where the craziness (fun?) started. Some advice: wear long johns underneath your clothes as you'll need to strip down in the back of a van to put on the dry and wet suits. The guides helped us get suited up (quite an ordeal) and then we waited a long time before it was our turn to snorkel the fissure. Was told that there is less of a wait during the morning tours. In any case, the visibility was amazing but as others have said, don't expect to see fish. Just rocks, crevices and some cool blue/green colors. It was nice that the guides have their own cameras and share the photos with everyone afterwards.
