    I chose Bustravel twice in a row and both times I encountered Pierre. The first time was a day trip to Snæfellsnes, and the second time was to the South Coast\'s Diamond Beach and Glacier Lagoon. He is an extremely, extremely, extremely friendly person. Throughout the journey, he introduced the attractions in great detail, and what he said was always interesting—it never felt like he was just doing his job. Every time we arrived at a location, he would prepare a note with the scheduled time to ensure no one missed the information and disrupted the itinerary. And every time we got back on the bus, he would ask everyone if they enjoyed the visit and bid farewell to each passenger as they were dropped off. I really, really like him!! He truly made my trip to Iceland full of joy and warmth. Read more

    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
