Great sights on the Golden Circle - Our excursion guide Agnus was very knowledgeable. She provided tons of information on every location we visited. She gave us enough time to truly enjoy each stop. Agnus also added a few stops that included trying some geothermal bread and Iceland ice cream, which is a must try! The excursion was paced amazingly and Agnus also drove us a bit through the city to see a few of the main attractions in Reykjavik before returning to the ship. Would definitely recommend this excursion and our guide!

Small group golden circle - We really enjoyed the golden circle tour. The small group and our guide Agnes really made the tour the best. Agnes made several additional stops since we were a small group that really added to the trip. Agnes, you are the best!!!

Great tour smiles all around. - Excellent tour and guide. We ended up being only 6 people and had a great day. Our guide Blueberry was a sharp pretty young lady with a wealth of knowledge and loads of Icelandic pride. We got to see where the north American tectonic plate was moving away from the Eurasian plate. Then we saw the gorgeous Gullfoss falls, then the Kerid volcano and walked around the top of the caldera. Then a lunch and Geysir to view the geyser field. We were able to see 3 eruptions of the largest one. The tour was in a 20 passenger quite comfortable bus. My wife put 19,000 steps on her Fitbit but almost all the walking was downhill or flat except for the caldera. We were dropped off at the top and picked up at the bottom in a few places. The pace was just right for our aging group (80, 72,71,69). After the tour when we were back on board our cruise ship we all gave it 2 thumbs up. Excellent value. No hesitation in recommending this tour. We will remember and talk about this one for a long time.

Spend time with GoeIcelans and Anya - Amazing personalized trip!!! We learned so much about Iceland. Annya (we hope we spelled your name right) was so knowledgeable and friendly. We loved EVERY moment. By the time the tour was over we felt like we made a new friend.

Excursion ok but vehicle needs to be more spacious & less hazardous to get in / out. - First of all it was difficult to locate the vehicle. The tour was good. My biggest complaint was the vehicle we were in. It was very small, there was not any room to put your backpack so you had to hold it on your lap. Stepping in/out of the vehicle was very hazardous. You had to be careful of the step not being wide enough for your foot, it would have helped having a sturdy step stool. The guide pretty much stayed in vehicle & let the tourists open/close the van door. The only time he stood at Van exit was at the end to get tips.

ATTENTION: Does not run tours yourself anymore - We did two beautiful tours with Geoiceland 8 years ago and had therefore booked two tours again this year. Unfortunately, we had to realize that Geoiceland itself no longer runs tours, but only mediates. Unfortunately, this is not shown when booking or on the website. Hence the negative review! The tours were conducted by EastWest - see also my review there.
