Flawless, knowledgeable, and very accomodating - Our driver and guide Hilly was amazing for this private tour. Very accommodating on adding/changing stops and giving recommendations. He also gave great advice on where to get food and crampons for icy roads. Highly recommended! He was also a very skilled driver. My parents are older and slower, and he was very understanding and would plan routes and pick-up locations accordingly.

Absolutely amazing tour! - We did a private South Coast tour, and I have to say it was one of the best tours I have ever been on. Our driver, Jón, was amazing and very informative. We had so much fun learning about Iceland, seeing so many beautiful sights and making wonderful memories. I would highly suggest using this company for your tour in Iceland, you won't regret it!

We had a great day! - Our group enjoyed the private tour, we set our own pace so we could see everything and not be exhausted! Guide was great, had lots of interesting stories and we had a delightful day. It was our best van tour over the 5 days we were touring the Reykjavik area.

Push👍🏻👍🏻 - This winter to come to Iceland, dare not drive, want to plan their own trip to the place they want to go and don't want to join with others, the Internet climbing over the last time chose the Friend in Iceland, the first time is to contact with Gunnar, she was very kindly answered too quickly, after arriving in Iceland is Gunnar driving us four to play, he is a very professional and careful guide, will also remember our midway temporarily proposed requirements, practical talk will bring us to realization, and it is really good to have Gunnar with us, he knows the weather conditions to respond, because so we are not caught in the storm snow, but can carry us in the weather rather good storm snow center to continue, we are four are sitting nine persons in the bus car, very comfortable, new vision is good, driving in the snow is also great. Later one day was to take a game for Yuan Yuan, she is like our grand sister taking care of us, on the way and tell us the various stories of Iceland, in sending us back to the accommodation we thought that the day there was no chance to see the bright light, the result is that Yuan Yuan called us in the evening to say there is a bright light can take us to see, we really almost happy in the restaurant to scream 🙂 Their travel agency information is not shared by many people in Taiwan so I want to let everyone know more about their travel agency through my experience this time, we chose a 6 day fully customized custom tour, although the cost to see at the beginning will feel like a little high, but these days really feel worth it! People who want to go to Iceland to play but don't dare to drive themselves and don't want to join with others can consider, is really a trusted travel agency!

A wonderful trip in Iceland with Gunnar. - We booked a private 2 day tour down the south coast of Iceland together with Gunnar. He is such a nice guy that knows everything about Iceland and can tell you a nice fairy tale about every rock or waterfall you pass by. Most important for us was, that we are somehow off the tourist tracks and Gunnar fulfilled this wish. Sometimes it felt like we were the only ones on the island. This trip is absolutely worth it. Thank you Gunnar for this great experience.

Highly recommended! - We had a wonderful time doing a two day private tour with Gunnar to the south coast. Gunnar was very responsive and helpful with planning the trip, and recommended an excellent hotel to stay on the south coast. We learnt a lot about Icelandic history and culture from him. He is reliable and drives very safely, even in deep Icelandic fog! Gunnar also organised a great ice cave tour for us. We’d go again without any hesitation!!!

Special Trip with a Special Guy - 5/5 Recommend! - Gus is 10 stars!! We could not recommend Friend in Iceland more. We spent a couple of days in Iceland at the end of January/start of February 2022. As we did not have a huge amount of time we opted to book with Friend in Iceland and are so glad we did. Thanks to Gus we were able to see a huge amount in a short space of time. Gus is super knowledgable and very attentive. He was fabulous with his recommendations and went out of his way to make sure this trip was a special one for us! Which it was!! We can't wait to go back to Iceland and book in again with Gus!
