Review of Iceland’s Golden Circle and Secret Lagoon tour, with Thingvellir, Strokkur, Gullfoss, small-group travel, pricing, and practical tips.

“I’ve been on two Golden Circle tours, last year by myself and this year with my wife. Though they went to basically the same places, they were as different as night and day. Selecting a tour operator based on a review from a booking site like Viator can be rather hit or miss. Not only are they a consolidator, working with a number of tour providers, the one thing that makes all the difference in the world on a tour is the guide. If you have a good guide, you are guaranteed a genuinely enjoyable day where you learn, explore, meet some interesting fellow travelers and have a great time.…”

Review of Iceland’s Golden Circle, Kerid Crater and Secret Lagoon tour, with practical advice on stops, timing, value, pickup and winter travel.

“Our tour guides, Heidi and Thor, were fantastic. They had loads of interesting stories and facts to share and were always welcoming to any questions. However, the pickup and transfer to the meeting point were a bit dodgy. We were expecting the white bus with the logo (as described on the pickup details) but a red mini-bus turned up. We only realised this when we got a phone call saying we hadn’t made the pickup. Luckily, the bus was just in front of us. It’s understandable why some reviewers were left behind. We’ve used Reykjavík Excursions for a south coast tour and if we were to go here again, we’d…”

“Our bus driver Thore was just an amazing guide and very informative. She respects her country so much that it was heart filling to see how she loves her people and enjoys sharing her knowledge of Reykjavík! She brought a spark to every visit we made and we were a party of 6 and we all enjoyed our last day in Reykjavik. You have a beautiful country and your culture is amazing! True model for all countries and humanity. Thank you for sharing your beautiful country with us. We would love to be back in the winter months.”

“Absolutely amazing! Easy to find at pick up with clear instructions. The tour guide/driver Addi truly made this tour amazing. He gave us so many interesting facts and stories and had the best sense of humour, I spent most of the trip chuckling. You had plenty of time at each stop, never felt rushed at all. He even added a few extra photo opportunity stops and we stopped and fed some Icelandic horses. The stops themselves were some of the most amazing sights I have ever seen, particularly Gullfoss and the geysir! I would 100% use Nice Travel again when I visit Iceland in the future”
