Good - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing South Coast Day Tour with BustTravel
I had a wonderful experience on the South Coast day tour with BustTravel. The itinerary was well planned, covering stunning highlights such as waterfalls, black sand beaches, and beautiful coastal landscapes. Everything ran smoothly and on time.
Our guide Petra was absolutely fantastic. She was professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly. Petra shared many interesting stories and facts about Iceland’s nature, history, and culture, which made the long drive very enjoyable. She was also very considerate, always checking if everyone was comfortable and giving clear instructions at each stop.
The scenery along the South Coast was breathtaking, and we had enough time to explore and take photos without feeling rushed. I really appreciated the small details and Petra’s passion for her work—it truly made a difference.
I highly recommend BustTravel’s South Coast tour, especially if you are lucky enough to have Petra as your guide. It was one of the highlights of my Iceland trip!

Perfect tour on a beautiful day to visit glacier - Excellent tour—so well planned from start to finish! Kjartan was fantastic: super friendly, calm, and incredibly knowledgeable, and he explained the history of Iceland in a way that made everything feel alive. The highlight for us was Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon—seeing those huge blue icebergs drifting quietly was unforgettable. And the stop at Diamond Beach was stunning: chunks of crystal-clear ice scattered across the black sand like real diamonds, with the waves crashing behind them. The timing, pacing, and photo stops were perfect. Highly recommend this tour, and especially Kjartan as a guide!

Wonderful trip - The tour is amazing, and the scenery was beautiful and truly distinctive. The guide was very kind and approachable. We almost missed another aurora tour scheduled for the evening, but he helped us get in touch with the staff and, in the end, made it possible for us to join the evening journey.

Worth the money - I can’t thank anymore our guide and driver Harold and Arthur. They made our tour extra special. Harold was so full of knowledge and always had interesting information about all the places we were seeing.
This tour is really worth the money. The glacier lagoon was a magical place - a must do in Iceland.
Everything was great! Even my 7 years old had a wonderful time! Thank you so much.

Great experience of Iceland - Really good trip. The snow and bad road conditions didn’t deter from the day. Pava did great. Even got to see the Northern Lights. Thank you to Juliana for looking after us so well

Well worth the money, would do again - Very good trip. Got to see some lovely places along the south coast of Iceland. Juliana and Pavo were great staff to lead the way. And it was topped off with viewings of the northern lights by the waterfall!

Glacier Lagoon Tour - awesome way to end our trip! - Expect a long day of travel (bus). Lots of stops along the way, which were spectacular. Overall a very informative tour. Our guide & driver were both great! We were staying outside Reykjavík and arranged a special p/u at one of the stops that worked out well even though there was confusion w/ the tour company at the time of booking (thankfully I doubled checked w/ the bus company when it was time to pay in full). The Glacier Lagoon was an amazing experience, totally worth the time it took to drive there. ☺️

Boat Ride, Amazing! - We had Edu as our tour guide and we were very impressed at how he managed a big group. Explained instructions very well, very kind, patient, and always making sure everyone was accounted for and safe. Time management was excellent, we didn’t miss our boat. We even liked the Icelandic music. The breaks in between the destinations are good as well.
