- R7007OAjessep0 contributions”This is my first time driving the bus”The driver had a hood sense of humour and knew what he was doing. The views were nice. Definetly the easiest and egolocigal way to get to Reykjavík from the airport.Written 15 March 2025
- I7390TUmadeleines0 contributionsKEF airportA very friendly and funny driver named Karol. We headed to the airport in advance which was nice! The ride went smoothly and we arrived in time.Written 15 March 2025
- Nicoleglass10 contributionsJuliana, the best tour guide!The most amazing trip from start to finish! Juliana was our tour guide and she had all the knowledge and all the fun energy for the tour! We felt we had a perfect amount of time at every stop to enjoy everything and the snowmobiling at the end was definitely the highlight! No one in our family had snowmobiled before but we were all flying around by the end, and we had plenty of photo opportunities, could not recommend it more. A trip of a lifetime!Written 15 March 2025
- 106emilym0 contributionsHighlight of the trip!The absolute highlight of our holiday!! The tour guide and driver were so helpful, it was well organised. The views were surreal!! Definitely a once in a lifetime experience!Written 15 March 2025
- sieb3550 contributionsGreat way to spend a dayAmazing Golden Circle Tour with Gus and Greg! We had a fantastic day on the Golden Circle Tour, largely thanks to our guide Gus and driver Greg. From the very beginning, they created a relaxed and informative atmosphere, making the whole experience even more special. Gus was an excellent guide—not only was he very knowledgeable about the sights, but he also shared information in an engaging and humorous way. He told fascinating stories about Iceland’s history, geology, and culture, giving us a much deeper appreciation of the country. Greg, the driver, ensured a smooth and comfortable ride, which was especially nice on the longer stretches between stops. The route itself was breathtaking. From the stunning Þingvellir National Park to the powerful Gullfoss waterfall and the spectacular Strokkur geyser—every stop was absolutely worth it. We had plenty of time to explore and take photos without ever feeling rushed. The tour was well-organized and a perfect way to see Iceland’s highlights in just one day. Thanks to the enthusiastic and professional guidance of Gus and Greg, it became an experience we won’t soon forget. If you’re considering booking a Golden Circle Tour, we highly recommend this one. It’s ideal for anyone looking for a well-organized, informative, and relaxing day trip!Written 15 March 2025
- Linda E0 contributionsA trip not to be missed!The trip was enjoyable from start to finish! Our guide Gunnar was outstanding, very informative with added humour here and there! Each stop was timed correctly would definitely recommend a once in a lifetime trip!Written 15 March 2025
- Cenydd B0 contributionsGood way to see Golden Circle of short of time.A good way to see the main attractions in the Golden Circle. Our driver was very informative and gave us a lot of details about what we saw and Iceland more generally. The bus was a little cramped for such a long trip. We left at 12:30 from the bus station and returned to our local bus stop at 18:30. Pick up at another location was a little expensive and it is worth looking at whether you can walk to the bus station.Written 15 March 2025
- Wendy F0 contributionsFriendly & efficientKarol the bus driver was friendly & helpful Witty & funny which brightened up the early drive Bus was punctual and we arrived on time at airportWritten 15 March 2025
- stulees0 contributionsWonderful day but consider a car if you want the full experience.Lovely day on the Golden Circle tour ending with a trip to the Sky Lagoon in the evening. Albert was very friendly and informative. Visited pingvellir National Park, Geysir and the Gullfoss waterfall. Beautiful stunning scenery in-between sites. My only criticism would be the time restraint. We were only given 20 minutes at the National Park so no time to walk down to the actual site, visit the shop/info centre and take pics from viewing platform. Spent longer at other two sites but still “on the clock”. Would probably hire a car next time. However, throughly enjoyed the day but the time restraints prevents a 5/5. Sky Lagoon amazing and absolutely loved the 7 step ritual. A must. Big thanks to Albert’s driver.Written 15 March 2025

Lots of departures during the day so you won't need to wait too long for the next one.

Firstly I would like to say our driver was fantastic, he navigated the roads brilliantly and safely in very tough blizzard conditions! We had such a fantastic day snowmobiling thank you also to the snowmobiling team who made it a great experience in very low visibility conditions. Also, after visiting the two waterfalls which were great and the small intimate group made it run very smoothly, highly recommend booking this experience!!!

This is a really good trip. The coach trip is a couple of hours each way. You can bring own food or buy it a a service station half way there. Make sure you take your camera as the views are stunning even from the coach! The snowmobiling is great fun and they provide you with boot, gloves, balaclava and very warm all in one jump suits! The only downside for me was the fact you rode in single file so you could only go as fast as the person in front of you. So you felt all the bumps etc but please do it . It’s very much worth the money if you have never been on snowmobile and especially on a glacier!
The waterfalls are fantastic! The ice stalactites look fantastic. You will enjoy both stops at the waterfalls.

Great trip out down to the south coast. We decided to book a trip as we wanted the snowmobile experience and could not see how to book that alone. Paval our driver was great and looked after us well. The let down was the weather as it was foggy and raining on the glacier so had no idea of the height or size of where we were. That said the snowmobile riding was great fun visits to the two waterfalls was superb.

Long drive but necessary to do snowmobiling on the glacier! Beautiful scenery on way & informative driver. Snowmobile hut could do with re- organising as everyone in our group was squashed up trying to get to desk to sign papers. Desk could do with moving to the left of the room, not on right, next to the door for the changing room, & papers could be signed straight away instead of the 20 minute wait we had.
Guides on snowmobiles we're informative & helpful. Had a fantastic time on top of the glacier! Came back down & another group was in signing papers & trying to come into changing room to dress for their excursion while some of us were still trying to get our suits off! Maybe needs a bigger changing room or maybe a couple of different rooms for the different activities offered!
Overall, experience was fantastic. No need to take any equipment as all supplied.
Visited 2 waterfalls on way back. Skogafoss & Seljalandsfoss. Both beautiful in their own way. Couldn't go behind Seljalandsfoss as it was too icy. Would be a summer activity if you plan to go behind the falls.

Absolutely fantastic trip! We took buggies up to the glacier as it was early in the season so there wasn’t enough snow for snow mobiles, but this wasn’t a problem as the buggies were so much fun! The scenery and the ice cave were breathtaking, and our guide Paul, was very informative and took lots of photos for us! Highly recommend this trip!
