Beautiful Tour - Great tour with Thor our guide. We saw waterfalls, puffins, black beach, and a glacier. Thor was very knowledgeable about Iceland and answered all of our questions. We were not rushed and had a wonderful time.

Waterfalls, Beaches and Puffins, Oh My! - What an exceptional day! Our guide, native Icelander Thor, was professional, courteous and knowledgeable. He, like most Icelanders, spoke excellent English. He picked us (family of 6) up from our hotel in downtown Reykjavik and returned us to the same spot at day’s end. This was an all-day tour of rural areas, so we packed our own snacks and drinks (purchased the day before because of the tour’s early start). We stopped at several stunning waterfalls and an incredible black sand beach with basalt pillars. We also visited an old lighthouse perched upon a cliff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The cliff was home to hundreds -if not thousands- of puffins. We were feet away from these quirky, colorful little birds. Watching them take flight and feed their young were highlights of our tour. We opted to walk behind and into the mist of the first waterfall. This experience was exhilarating, but we did get a bit wet and parts of the short path required us to climb down rocks. Thor shared one of his favorite lunch spots with us (warm soup and bread at our cost), and pointed out numerous locations of interest as well as facts and information about the country and culture of Iceland throughout the day. One member of our group required a wheelchair and Thor easily accommodated this need. I highly recommend this tour and tour guide.

Perfect Day! - We had a wonderful day with Alex! He picked us up promptly at our AirBnB- he called when he arrived to let us know he was outside. Alex was a perfect guide- would give us information while driving and answered all our questions. He was engaging for our 12 and 15 year olds as well. We never felt rushed at our stops and he even stopped a few extra places along the way as we mentioned we had interest. It was nice to to have a personal experience rather than a group tour. Alex knew the perfect place for lunch near the beach which had a variety of items even for vegans. If you are on the fence about booking this South Coast tour- it's worth it! Alex made our experience in Iceland special!!!

Best tour guide!!! A+ - Excellent!!! Thor was the best tour guide. We found him extremely knowledgable about all the places we stopped. He has great stories from the past and present, and we learned a great deal about icelandic culture. He had good jokes to keep things light while we traveled many miles. We felt that he is a very safe driver. We had an interest in icelandic music so we talked about icelandic bands and put on icelandic music so we could listen to it in between stops. Thor even made an extra effort to help us find a great authentic gift shop while on the tour. We highly recommend Thor for any tour. When we return to Iceland, we are planning to do some exploring of the Highlands with Thor. We cannot wait!! Thank you Thor!!!

The Road Less Travelled - Magic - Our marathon one day tour left us speechless! Thor listened to our request to take a path less travelled and he really delivered! We were able to see Hekla in a way few do. We were all alone in this amazing area without the crowds and buses. We also visited Haifoss, the Valley of Tears, as well as many other spectacular sights. Thor (Iceland in Motion) picked us up early and after a long, but exciting day dropped us off at our hotel. The whole experience was wonderful and we will book with Thor again when we return to continue exploring the Highlands, and other off the beaten path must sees in Iceland. Thanks Thor, we loved your enthusiasm. See you again!
