Kristjan came to our rescue at the last minute, taking five of us on a brilliant full day tour to Dettifoss. He was prompt, pleasant, easy to get along with, with excellent English and a great sense of humour. His off-road driving in deep snow was steady, safe and highly skilled. His knowledge of Icelandic geology, history, culture and industry kept us entertained and informed without it being intrusive as we travelled through the beautiful white landscape. He was calm and reassuring as he led us to the astonishing Dettfoss waterfall wearing snowshoes (coudn’t be easier). A breathtaking sight in a magnificent landscape. Best day of our holiday in lovely Iceland. Thank you so much!

Thank you Helga for such a fun experience! We had our Blue Lagoon and Reykjavik tour in March of 2019 and we still think about how amazing the experience was. Helga was very knowledgeable and drove us around telling us about the city. She also brought us to the Blue Lagoon and dropped us back off. It was easy, convenient and affordable. We would do every tour with her if we could! We can’t wait until we can come back to Iceland !!!

I don't do reviews often but this company deserves it. Hlynur was AMAZING. So prompt, professionally dressed, funny, kind, personable, knowledgeable, and amazing with my children. It was my twins' 9th birthday that day, they asked prior how old and surprised them with a gift for each that they loved. Made them feel so special. One had to visit restroom towards end of tour and he whisked her off through a HUGE crowd directly to one we could not have found ourselves and the tour was already done. They went above and beyond and gave us a fantastic day. The nature baths and Lake were so awesome and Iceland overall - you just can't go wrong. Beautiful place and Hlynur loves his home and country and you can tell through his tour and passion for the things we were seeing. I cannot recommend them enough. DO BOOK THROUGH THEM if you book at all!

Lunch stop is en-route depending on conditions on the way, including delicious locally sourced ingredients. We will stop by to visit the place that NASA used as a training ground for astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin for the Apollo 11 lunar landing in 1969.

We had a lovely time visiting Iceland. As we didn’t hire a car Helga’s customised tours ensured that we managed to see all of Iceland sights including going beyond the itinerary to take us to the beautiful Diamond beach. We started as customers but parted as friends- beautifully run tours of small sizes so as personalised as you would like and value for money at the same time.

We are very pleased to evaluate our guided trip to Iceland last May. Michael, our guide, made our trip amazing. We both said afterwards that this was the best trip that we have ever taken, and we have traveled to many different countries. Iceland, combined with Michael’s personality and knowledge of the country ensured that our trip was educational, fun, and adventuresome. We were on a private tour of southwestern Iceland with two friends from the United States (they are currently in the middle of Hurricane Florence so they might not be able to provide a review for awhile). We were full of questions and Michael was very knowledgeable and he answered all of our questions thoroughly. He taught us about the geology, history, and culture. He knew exactly what was important for us to see on our private tour. We were picked up at our hotel and we toured around in a SUV. We trusted Michael’s driving throughout our seven-day trip. There were no glitches in our accommodations and the places we stayed in were ready for us at each destination. The tour was very carefully formulated. Our guide knew when to give us space and when to engage with us. We were all senior citizens and we were taken on tours that accommodated our age and different physical abilities. The icing on the cake was Michael’s personality. We enjoyed so many laughs and giggles on the trip. He was warm and respectful of us. Would we do this tour or any other tour with Michael again? Absolutely. Thank you Michael! Heather Coleman and Don Collins
