Impressive scenery

The scenery was impressive and just beautiful. We were lucky with the weather but you are in the bus a lot so you don't need great weather.

Brilliant tour, great guide, spectacular sights!

We did get off to a tricky start as the minibus didn't have enough space for all guests - but this didn't impact us directly and was resolved. We were in a Merc minibus which was very plush and comfortable, and good for the tour. HOWEVER - if you sit on the back row you don't have windows - be warned! Our tour guide was brilliant and told us so much about Iceland - and all of it was interesting! It was great to hear so many different stories about history, the eruptions, earthquakes and future plans, loved it. The sights you see are wonderful and our guide was very set on being on-time (which we loved) so be warned if you're late. Our guide definitely enjoyed when folks were really into a sight, and we got to spend more tie there. The glacier was such a highlight for me, and my family, and being able to spend extra time there and getting fantastic photos was unforgettable. Thank you so much for the experience. NO problems at all with this tour, and loved the guide, only issue was at the start but then we had a fantastic day. Thank you!
