Great day tour for diamond circle - Very great day tour which get around diamond circle. This take around 8-9 hours to complete. Tour guide was very good and informative, time for each place is enough to enjoy and walk around each place and quite flexible time. Overall very good value for people who come from cruise ship (like us) or want good day tour.

Great experience with a fantastic guide - Norbert was an excellent guide who was very entertaining and informative. It was really nice chatting to him, and he was happy to answer all the questions we had. The tour included all the highlights that we wanted to visit, and we had sufficient time at each stop. Norbert also kindly offered to take photos for us, and showed us the best angles and spots for great pictures! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in learning more about the history and folklore behind these stunning places.

Amazing Diamond Tour - Ármann was a fantastic guide for our tour. He is very knowledgeable about every aspect of Iceland, past, present and future, and in particular he is a geology specialist. He left no stone unturned in showing us so many unique sights on the Diamond Tour. We would highly recommend this fun and interesting tour to really get to know Iceland! Jess & Charlie

Take the tour 🙂 - This is a full day tour but well worth it. Our driver and guide was Biggy and he was friendly, knowledgeable and tried to please all day. He clearly loves his home town and surrounding area. We really are glad we did this tour with Imagine Iceland

Really good service - My flight was delayed, but the company chose to wait. It saved my day. The weather wasn't the best but the guide was very friendly and accompanied us around and took his time at each site. A very good experience

Not very well prepared... - Not very well prepared tour. Car needs pump during the tour, not very clean inside of car, car door step seems out of order, guide does not seem professional, no lunch time, etc..
