The trip is great, and the route included all sights worth seeing in the Golden Circle. The price is also reasonable.

This trip was a little slower paced than the Thorsmork trip. Equally loved the countryside and the guide's interesting tidbits.

I strongly recommend this tour. Beautiful landscapes and natural phenomena. Comfortable bus and a very good guide. Couldn't have been better.

Great trip, well-organised and despite the wet, cold weather a great day out. Bus driver dropped us off and picked us up at several different stops so we could explore independently. Guide was very knowledgeable. Good trip if you are only there for a few days.

Our guide was brilliant. Weather is very changeable, one minute sunshine, next wet and windy and even hailstones. Walked around edge of Gullfoss waterfall, which was breathtaking, geysirs, tectonic plates that have moved - in one place we were in North America and when we stepped to another area we were in Europe!

The tour guide made sure to take advantage of every minute, and I was extremely pleased with the outcome.

The only two trips you need to do when visiting Reykjavik are this and the Blue Lagoon. Both trips were amazing!

Excellent tour - well worth the money! Wonderful guide fluent in at least 6 languages. Visited all the most interesting spots with time to look around. Also very good shops and restaurants. I'm going back as soon as I can!

A fantastic trip! One of the best days of my entire life. Definitely worth every penny.

This was a very enjoyable day. The first stop at the geothermic power plant gives an interesting insight into how Reykjavik is supplied with water, and the scenery and landscapes on the other parts of the tour were outstanding. However, I think it's definitely better to do it in the winter provided you're OK with walking about in the cold for half an hour or so because having seen postcards of the landscape in the summer. I would suggest the snow and ice make it more spectacular, particularly if like me you live in the south-east of the UK and therefore don't get to see such things too often! Our guide was excellent, gave us lots of interesting information but did not talk for too long and had a good sense of humour. All in all highly recommended, especially if like me you are only visiting for a short time.

Shame about the weather, which could have been a little kinder, however, a thoroughly enjoyable trip, a very good and knowledgeable guide and some great places seen. I thought the arrangements for the hotel pick-ups were excellent and could not be faulted. All in all a good day.

This is an excellent day-long tour highlighting natural beauty of Iceland. It's informative and well paced. The only negative was a stop and lecture at a power plant, which was both boring and unnecessary.
