We were originally scheduled for a similar tour which was canceled so they rebooked us. Our original tour included Sky Lagoon and I incorrectly thought that part of the tour was canceled as the new tour didn’t include it. After we returned to our room, I received a call from the company asking if we would still like to go to Sky Lagoon. Because the bus had already left, they sent a taxi (that they paid for!) to pick us up and then to take us home. I feel they went above and beyond for us. Also, our tour guide on the tour was fantastic. Thomas seemed to know everything and was happy to answer any questions. This was such a great day! Read more

The falls are amazing and it was a pleasant stop at the farm to hear about farming in Iceland. The happy wedding cake was delicious. Read more

The tour was incredible. Felt very real, like I was seeing the beautiful landmarks of Iceland in their natural form. There were no egregious tourist traps, and the tour party size did not detract from the site at all (although, part of that is due to the rougher-than-normal weather). While other tour companies can take you to the same sights, I\'m so glad I chose this one because our guide, Daniel, was just great. His knowledge, stories, cadence, etc. really made the trip feel special. Not in some grandiose touristy way, but in a relaxed, candid way. In fact, I\'m not someone who ever writes reviews, but I felt I should in this instance because of how much I enjoyed the trip and our guide Daniel. Also, I left my wallet on the bus at the end, and the owner/staff were very helpful in returning it to me early the next morning. It\'s unrelated to the tour, but it does speak to the legitimacy and goodness of the business Read more
