    The south coast waterfalls, glacier and black sand beach is amazing. The waterfalls with rainbow are magnificent. The black sand beach is beautiful. The waves are very strong. I’m so glad that I booked this tour. South coast is so beautiful and it’s a must see in Iceland. Bus travel Iceland is a great company. I’m happy that I booked all of my tours with them. My guide Jennifer is very knowledgeable. She told us a lot about Iceland history, the sites…Robert is an excellent driver. He keeps us safely traveling. The pick-up bus is on time. Everything is well organized and punctuated. If you visit Iceland, don’t miss out South coast tour with Bus Travel Iceland, highly recommended. Read more

    Our favorite tour while visiting! We were lucky to have Siggi as a guide and he was absolutely amazing. If you want to see Iceland, book with BusTravel Iceland. If you want to really EXPERIENCE Iceland, try to get a tour with Siggi. He told us so much information, was funny and friendly, learned everyone\'s names within the first 5 minutes and remembered us throughout the day. He\'s a true unicorn in the hospitality industry. We saw so many beautiful sights, the bus was comfortable and on time, and we couldn\'t stop talking about our trip to the Snaefellsnes Peninusula. The highlight of our vacation! Read more

    Whew! This tour is a long one but you get to see a lot. I wish it didn\'t start at the waterfall you could go behind, only because I didn\'t want to have to travel with wet or damp clothes the rest of the day. BUT I can understand why they structure they way they do because it\'s a long day on the road and it\'s pretty dark when you are travelling back through that area. The tour was on time for pickup and got us back when they said they would, which is appreciated after a long day. The town of Vik was very cute and it was a great stopping point to stretch your legs. Beautiful tour, lots of information. Gave us a taste of Iceland if we decided to ever do a larger trip further away from Reykjavik which was a great experience. Read more

I would suggest doing a small group tour for Golden Circle if you want some more time at these places. Beautiful scenery, and BusTravel Iceland was on time and prompt which I appreciate. Overall a fantastic tour and I would recommend. Read more
