Best tour of our trip! - Picked up on time at our hotel. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, supportive and entertaining. Plenty of stops and accommodations along the way. Iceland horse presentation very interesting and informative. Tour of greenhouse and lunch at the wine bar extraordinary. Return to Reykjavik and tour of National Park, geysers, tectonic plates well done and fit in before sunset!

Great Golden Circle Day Tour - We had a fantastic day trip seeing the Golden Circle - highlights were definitely the geysir, Gulfoss and Kerid Crater. Pick up was easy and our guide provided great information throughout about the Golden Circle locations and life in Iceland!
Some of our group were late to the bus and we really appreciated that our guide got us to the next stop before going back for latecomers so as to not impact the day for the whole group. We'd definitely recommend this trip from ReykJavik!

Lovely day trip - We booked this tour mainly for the farm because we did not think it wise to try driving in the winter in Iceland. And I’m so glad we went with a tour instead of driving. The farm was fun. We got almost an hour to eat lunch (at our own expense) at the tables the tour reserved for us. The horse show was great. I was surprised how many spots we hit for the rest of the tour. Definitely a great way to explore this part of Iceland.

Ask for Siggie - Best guide I’ve had in 19 countries! - On today’s trip Siggie was the best guide we could ask for: knowledgable, local, fun, and incredibly engaging! I can’t put into words how you’re almost glad you got Siggie, as if he was one of the parts of the package you pay for. The trip was fantastic, Siggi took us to spots on the route not included, only known by Icelandic folk. We’re lucky to have caught a lovely day, but this review is a thanks to Siggie for making it 11/10. Would recommend this to anyone.

Worthy introductory tour. - The pickup is a bit drawn out and frustrating but after that hour we were in our small mini bus and ready to go. Advertised as small group there were only 9 on our trip including the 4 of us.
Sindri hit a good balance of talking - history, geographical information etc and leaving us to watch the scenery.
The stops were all well planned. Some seemed too short / long on paper, but in actual fact were all well balanced. A long leisurely lunch out of the crowds and enough time to see the geographical features we came for.
Mini bus was very comfortable - not your typical coach seats so felt luxurious.
We’d originally planned to self drive this but changed our minds due to heavy snow, which cleared. We were so glad we got the bus instead, really enjoyable.

The Golden Circle and Sigi - The main bus arrived on schedule and then we moved to the specific van of the tour, Sigi the manager delivered very good information of the places and provided data on Iceland, it is recommended.

Farm and horse - Very informational learning about Icelandic land and historic happenings. Amazing visit to a farm where tomatoes taste like home grown and the horses were so fuzzy.
If you have motion sickness take stuff to prevent it.
