The Best Team to Explore Iceland With! - We booked a 7-day customised tour with Lilja, and Julien took the time to really understand our needs and preferences. He designed a perfectly balanced itinerary with just the right mix of adventures and hikes, while also offering great recommendations to help us make better choices along the way. In Iceland, we were guided by Jon in the first half of the trip and Philippe in the second. Both were knowledgeable, professional, and sincere — more like wonderful travel companions than just guides. Their service was top-notch, and they handled our last-minute changes with impressive speed and accuracy. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to show us around Iceland. The whole experience was seamless, thoughtful, and truly enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fuss-free and personalised journey through Iceland! Dear Julien, Jon, and Philippe — keep doing what you’re doing, your passion truly shines through!

Yeah, good! - 2 times I use the services and expertise of Lilja Tour. And always delighted. Organization / management of the stay by Julien, great choice of hotels, visits with Philippe by driver and storyteller. Everything was perfect again, perfectly arranged. Ride with your eyes closed, it’s very serious Thanks again!

Lilja Tours - the best part of my Iceland vacation - My family of 4 did a 2 day private tour with Lilja Tours in late December 2024. We all voted that the 2 days we spent with Phillipe were the best of our 7 days in Iceland. Julien was great to work with in planning our tour. We did a main base in Reykjavik and our 2 day tour took us out to the Diamond beach with an overnight at the glacier. We saw waterfalls, black sand beach and glaciers along the way. Phillipe is very knowledgeable of the history and sites we saw. Excellent suggestions for places to stop and eat along the trip route. Phillipe is an excellent driver, there were times I was beyond thankful I was not driving. The tour was exactly what I was looking for - a way my whole family could enjoy the beautiful scenery of Iceland. I highly recommend the tour at the beginning of your vacation, it allows you to observe traffic rules that are not the same as your country. Those multi-lane roundabouts rules can get you if you are not expecting that the inside lane has right away on exiting out.
