After that, our next stop will be the Gullfoss waterfall, a breathtaking display of nature’s power and beauty.

Continue your exploration at Þingvellir National Park, it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site that reveals Iceland’s rich history, including the evident boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.After the exploration of the Golden Circle, now we will return to Reykjavík, and it’s the time to get ready for a magical three-hour tour to witness the magical Aurora Borealis, a natural phenomenon that’s caused by the interaction of solar particles with the upper layer of the atmosphere.

Lovely full day private tour

Spent a lovely day with my guide, Lena. I have mobility issues and use a walker. Lena adjusted our schedule to allow me to what limited walking I could do to maximize my time and see the sites. Highly recommend.

Wonderful!

Our tour guide was Sam and he was amazing! We did both the Golden Circle tour and the South Coast tour with him. He was fluent in English and very knowledgeable. He took us to a few secret spots that were beautiful and less crowded. Highly recommend him and the company!

Unforgettable Wonderful Day!

We are so very pleased that we chose to take a private tour of the Golden Circle. Sam, who may be the BEST tour guide on the island, customized as we went through our day, meeting the interests of everyone in the group. We were in awe of the scenery, Sam's knowledge, as his ability to make everyone happy from ages 9 to 80! I highly recommend this tour. So many lovely sights and even better memories!

Best private tour ever, with best guide ever!

Sam is amazing! He knows a lot of Iceland's history and geography, is a fantastic driver, and very engaging. He made sure we saw all of the south shore must see spots as well as some less known (loved the troll houses)! Very comfortable, clean, and roomy van made for an easy 8+ hr tour. Highly recommend!!!!

Incredible tour with Dmitri

If I could rate this trip more than 5 stars I definitely would! Dmitri, our guide, took us to the most amazing locations and even added stops along the way to ensure we made the most of the trip. He helped us navigate the snow and ice safely to reach incredible hidden waterfalls that other tours often do not include. Afterwards, he also sent us all the amazing photos he took of the places we visited! Dmitri was so lovely and without doubt would contact him again when we return to Iceland.

Amazing

Iceland is a beautiful country full of stunning scenery and this tour covers some of it via the "Golden Circle" route.

Our tour guide Didzis (DJ) was excellent throughout our private day tour. He was knowledgeable and helpful throughout and really made our tour enjoyable.
