Lucky to have Jacob as our driver. - The initial driver failed to show and after phoning the Icelandic company secured a new driver, Jacob.
That was a lucky change and although our time was now limited he pulled every main feature in and, as a super bonus, he's a Geologist and could explain in great detail all the features.

Highly recommend for a day! - Our guide Lina was amazing! She knew exactly how long we needed at each place and made sure we did not miss anything! Her timing was perfect to avoid the crowds. Her driving was impeccable too. At one place she took us to the top, let us walk downhill, then picked us up at the bottom! And she made sure she took special group photos of us along the way. It was an amazing day.

Wonderful Golden Circle tour with Lina - This tour of the Golden Circle was SO worth it! Our group of 6 saw so much in our 7 hour tour. We were visiting Reykjavík before getting on a cruise ship and wanted to see as much as possible. This was the best way to do it, as we saw more things than we would have compared to a tour with a big group.
The day before, our driver Lina messaged me on whatsapp to confirm pickup location and time.
The day of, she was there as promised. We saw everything we wanted to and Lina was very knowledgeable about each of the sights and surrounding areas during the drive (we were never bored). She was a great guide and answered all of our questions! I’m so happy we booked this experience to make the most of our trip.

- The Golden Circle Tour was a wonderful introduction to Iceland. As beautiful as previous visitors had said made all the better by our guide, Lina. Though not a native of Iceland, Lina knew a number of “off the beaten path” stops to add to the tour. Our family could not have enjoyed the tour more. Thanks Lina.

Iceland Golden Circle Tour with Nice Travels - Amazing day with our guide Bart. Saw so many amazing sites in Iceland. Waterfalls, volcano, Geyser, Tectonic plates, and ending with a dip in the Blue Lagoon. Nice Travel did a great job. Van was very clean and comfortable. Felt safe at all times. A trip I will never forget. I highly recommend Nice Travel group.

Maria - The Simply Amazing Guide - Iceland tour was a dream come true !
Our tour guide Maria was beyond superlatives. She made us tour every small little place that we wouldn’t ever have imagined to do ourselves….the tomato farm , the lupin fields, the brooks on the way & of course the must - see places of Iceland.
She went out of the way to help do video and photo shoots in our chiffon Sarees by the black beach and waterfalls!
We even danced and dedicated a song to her. She was so cooperative and proactive to make us feel comfortable. Highly recommended, especially for family tours .

Nice guide, but tour stops were not as expected - There were several points of interest listed on the itinerary that were skipped over by our guide. Although there was information about the Geothermal Bakery in the itinerary, our guide said it wasn't included and he also never took us to Kerid Crater. Otherwise it was a good trip, he was knowledgeable, helpful and attentive. I was disappointed to not have these included since it was a private tour.
This is what is advertised as part of the itinerary:
Pass By: Laugarvatn Fontana Geothermal Baths, Hverabraut 1, Laugarvatn 840 Iceland
Laugarvatn Geothermal Bakery is a unique bakery located in Iceland that uses geothermal heat to bake its bread. The bakery is situated on the banks of Lake Laugarvatn, and it is powered by the natural heat that is generated by the earth's core. This means that the bread produced by the bakery is not only delicious but also environmentally friendly, as it does not require any external source of energy to be produced. The bread is made using traditional techniques, and the ingredients used are sourced locally, ensuring that the bread is fresh and of the highest quality. Visitors to the bakery can also witness the baking process firsthand, as the bakery is designed to allow visitors to see the bread being baked in the ovens.
Stop At: Kerid Crater, Selfoss Iceland
Kerið Volcanic Crater Lake is a 3000-years old volcanic lake with a unique appeal. You’ll see blue-colored lake water surrounded by dark lava rocks. A simple walk along the crater would bring you amazing views of this unique volcanic lake.

Broken AC made the trip unbearable…who knew Iceland could be hot??? - The van had a broken air conditioner on the hottest day in Iceland. Had to ride with windows open & could not hear a thing in the very back seat. ( which 3 of us were in) it was totally uncomfortably hot!
Guide was personable, but not informative.
It was disappointing since we only had 1 day in Reykjavik.
