Highlights
  • Thjorsardalur Valley -

    njórsárdalur is one of the hidden treasures of Iceland, a beautiful valley full of amazing natural attractions. Traversed by Þjórsá river – the longest one in Iceland, the area is lush with vegetation and offers a landscape of sharp contrasts such as flourishing birch woods, sandy lava fields, surprising rock formations, rivers and numerous picturesque waterfalls. The valley is quite flattened and covered by pumice after the repeated eruptions of the famous volcano Mt. Hekla which is nearby. Landgræðsla Ríkisins (the Soil Conservation Service of Iceland) continue to conduct extensive soil reclamation (with trees, lupins and other plants) and the place is now listed as a National Forest. You will be amazed by the unforgettable scenery of this green valley with the Mt. Hekla in the background.

Great day at Landmannalaugar - Landmannalaugar is beautiful and everyone who comes to Iceland for more than 2 days should go there. You’ll thank me. If you are lucky, you will get Adam as your driver. He was the best! He took a picture for me at the Haifoss waterfall that was way closer than I could bring myself to take. He put our group at dusk at a place so beautiful from all 360 degrees that you knew you’d never find a better spot in your life. And when you were tired and happy on the way back to Reykjavik he asked if we wanted to see the Northern Lights! Not on the list. Not required by any means. Sure to get him home an hour later. Yet that’s what he did. You cannot have a better vacation day than we in the jeep had. Maximum stars allowed! Thanks again Adam!

Amazing tour in Island - One week ago we participated in the Landmannalaugar tour with Adam. The tour was amazing and Adam was very polite, reliable and excited about his work and Iceland. He respected all the schedule, and stopped anytime we wanted to take pictures. We had some time to hike in the area and he showed us so many beautiful landscapes. We highly recommend this tour, thank you Adam!

Best Tour in Our 8 Days in Iceland - We spent 8 days sightseeing in Iceland in July 2022, and this was hands down our favorite day of the trip. Adam was an excellent driver and guide, and we enjoyed chatting with him throughout the day and learning more about Iceland. The drive itself was stunning, and we enjoyed bouncing around the highlands in the Super Jeep. We loved every moment of the hike, and we saw some of the best scenery of our entire time there. We really enjoyed seeing the craters and waterfalls we stopped at along the way. This was an incredible day, and we'd recommend to anyone to book this tour! If I had to say my favorite part of a day that was amazing every moment of the day, it would be the hike! The landscape changed frequently throughout the 5K loop, and it was all so beautiful. We lucked out and had great weather that made for a gorgeous day (and photos!).

Amazing Day in the Highlands! - We had an amazing day in the Icelandic Highlands with Adam! He was an awesome guide and was very attentive to what we wanted from our day. He had planned a great day with many wonderful stops along the way. We had two teenagers with us and they loved every minute.

Great experience and perfect guide - This tour is highly recommended, Adam is a great guide who explains a lot and knows all the great places. We had several beautifull stops away from the crowd. And if we wanted to stop anywhere for a foto that was possible.

Very scenic landscape... - Very scenic landscape traveled with guide / driver Adam it was great. We were split up and my wife ended up sitting in rear seats that she had to get behind me and it was uncomfortable getting in and out. Other option was to sit on hump middle seat also not comfortable. Thus is the reason for my 3*** review

Good tour, bad customer service. - The tour was ok, we saw some beautiful sites but the actual colors of Landmannalaugar were sadly under the snow. The problem was that we were charged double for this tour. I believe this was a glitch on their website or booking system but we were charged twice. Despite multiple calls and emails, Try Iceland refused to refund the overcharge. They blamed the "tour operator" but as it was the Try Iceland site that caused the over charge I don't know why they would put the refund on the driver. Sadly, I can't recommend Try Iceland Tours.
