Best tour ever! - Me and my daughter came to Iceland for a mini getaway. We are not familiar with anything so of course we booked a tour to cover everything in a short amount of time. We did expect a great time, but our bus driver made everything better. Joe (Joseph) was funny and yet super educational and gave us Great tips for our stops. Will recommend for anybody coming to Iceland

Awesome 1-day in Iceland! - My mom and I loved our experience. It was a perfect way to spend the one full day we had in Iceland. Mom's favorite part was seeing the horses. We both were blown away by the waterfall! Great guide. Small comfortable bus. Great day!

A Day in Iceland with Devin - A Day in Iceland with Devin I didn't know I wanted to visit Iceland until I took this tour. Our guide and driver, Devin, has an "exceptional grasp of the American English language!" He's funny, smart and so good at sharing information and history.

Devin the great guide! - There was a lot of confusion gathering groups and then dividing them into each tour but when we got to our tour we were greeted by Devin and our group of 13 started out. It was not beautiful weather but the geography, history and culture of Iceland was shining through Devin’s narration. We ended at the Thingvellir national park. What a great day!

Fantastic small group tour - I went on the Golden Circle small group tour and really enjoyed it. Our tour guide Devin was very knowledgeable, insightful, and funny, sharing interesting history and geography information about the area throughout the tour. We hit the major Golden Circle highlights with plenty of time at each stop. Very well worth the price and time. A note for wheelchair users or anyone with mobility issues: Several tours told me that they could not take me because I use a wheelchair. BusTravel was open to it, but there is no ramp on the vehicles. This tour worked for me because it was a small group tour so it was a large van (with a seat right by the door) rather than a mega bus, and because the tour guide Devin was extremely helpful (putting my manual wheelchair in the back and taking it out at each stop). I had to transfer to the steps and hoist myself up to the seat near the door, so it wouldn't work for someone who can't do that.

Amazing guide and tour! - Snaesa was a fabulous guide sharing her history, experiences, and knowledge of Iceland with us. Sites were amazing for our first tour of Iceland. Small group size and her friendly and out going personality made us feel like a family group tour. She walked with us and talked with us :) Snaesa is a valuable guide sharing her love of the area!

A Perfect Intro to Iceland! - Great Golden Circle Tour! We did this tour with our two adult daughters. Our tour guide, Joseph, was a delight. He was smart, knowledgable and so friendly. Also, one of our daughters uses a folding wheelchair and he was extremely helpful and accommodating. We loved all the sights on this tour! Not only did we see awe inspiring nature, but we learned a lot about the history of Iceland, the economics of growing tomatoes in greenhouses and the beautiful Icelandic horses! We had a delicious lunch at the Fridheimar Farm, as well (featuring tomatoes, of course!).

Great Golden Circle Day Tour - This was a great Golden Circle Tour. Pick up was made on time at bus stop 5-Harpa Convention Center. Addi was our tour guide for the day. He was a delight and expressed numerous historical facts, which made for a most informative day trip. Highlight was a visit to Fridheimar Farm where we experienced meeting, petting Icelandic horses, and seeing one go through the 5-different gates on an oval track. In addition, this was a working farm that grew hot house tomatoes and sold to local grocery stores. We saw a lot spectacular Icelandic nature as well-waterfall/crater/geyser/national park. Since we had a little time at the end, Addi took us to another nearby farm that sold ice cream...a real treat!!! You could see the cows right through the windows of the ice cream parlor. A day well spent and affordable.
