I booked two full day trips, transfers to and from airport and the Blue Lagoon with this company. We were a party of four adults that included two ‘seniors’ one of whom is disabled - me! All arrangements were agreed in writing and I was provided with a full, clear Itinerary for our stay. The drivers arrived at the expected time for each occasion and the vehicles were exceptionally good. They managed my scooter (and the luggage) cheerfully - both in actions and attitudes and I was treated with dignity at all times. The day trips in a 4 x 4 were outstanding and adjusted by agreement to meet the party’s desires and weather changes. Both of the young men who escorted our party were charming, informative and great company. By the end of both days, we were a family! Thank you so much Gisele and Audunn! Without doubt you can see the Golden Circle and the South Coast cheaper by coach tour or self-drive but neither can compare with the personal service and depth of knowledge about the island, it’s geography, society and culture provided by one’s own tour guide. The journeys in a 4 x 4 are more comfortable and exciting too!! If this is your first, your only or a special trip, don’t think twice about paying for the best if you can. This was my second visit to Iceland but hopefully not my last. Thank you Ao Thur for making it such fun and with more marvellous memories -again. Hugs Mary.

We booked 5 days private tour with Iceland Premium Tours, and we were hosted by none other than the CEO Orvar himself. He has been very accommodating towards our request, and provided his unparalleled understanding of Iceland itself. We have been hit by bad weather thru the week, he never stopped a moment to suggest alternate alternatives, without compromising of safety. When we were on the way to the airport, knowing that we did not managed to see the aurora, he took a last effort and drove us to a location for a last ditch effort. And we managed to catch a glimpse of it finally! Thank you Orvar!

Jökulsárlón is one of the best known glacial lagoons in Iceland. The name means glacier-river-lagoon and is located in the southeast of Iceland in Vatnajökull National Park. The area is unique with blue and white icebergs in the lagoon, and the glacier, Breiðamerkurjökull, in the background. As a day trip it’s a quite a long drive for a day but definitely well worth it. We also make stops along the way, depending on daylight in winter time.

Inclusions: Wifi on board

Exclusions: Dinner

The experience of hiking to Fagradalsfjall was truly one for a lifetime, and James was the perfect guide....we did not know what to expect, but we couldn't have asked for more. James was extremely experienced and knowledgeable. From the minute he picked us up in Reykjavic, through the entire hike up to the volcano, James was truly the perfect guide. Once we got to the top viewing point for the volcano (and were in total awe of what we were seeing!), James even provided us with coffee. We hadn't even expected to go on this hike, but it ended up being the absolute highlight of our entire trip. If at all possible, book this experience with James/Glaciers and Waterfalls - there are two other big companies monopolizing tourism in Iceland, but we couldn't have been happier with James and loved the small, personal attention he was able to provide to us. Don't miss this!!! A+++
