Amazing (long) day trip from Reyjavik - worth it! - Our family with kids ages 9 and 12 all really enjoyed this tour. It is a LONG tour but totally worth it. I didn't want to drive from Reyjavik and I'm so glad we picked this tour to see Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach. They were even better than I thought. And we got to see Selflandfoss waterfall at night which was a pleasant surprise! Our guide Benedict was informative and kind and the driver did great driving through snow, rain, and sleet. I was so glad I could relax and take in all the beautiful scenery, especially the glaciers. I'd say food was ok but there are not very many choices down in that part of the country. Overall I'd strongly recommend this tour!!

plenty of rest stops to... - plenty of rest stops to use bathrooms and buy food. plenty of time at each location for pictures and to just take in the scenery. very long day but you see so much. my only real complaint is that the bus is very tight in space and i’m a bigger person so it was a little small for comfort

Tour Good - Guide Bad - Of the six guides I had, Einar was the worst. He's the only one who left me with a bad taste in my mouth about Iceland. He's very rude and treats you like a schoolchild instead of a tourist. He doesn't make you fall in love with Iceland, which is a wonderful place in itself. Islandia you can avoid him do it.

Horrible experience - Honestly a ridiculous experience. I waited at the bus stop since 7am for the bus, and supposedly it arrived but actually it never came. Each of their busses has a list of passengers and they don’t seem to have a good method of keeping their bus driver’s lists up to date. If you’re booking through something like TripAdvisor they don’t take responsibility for your booking and experience and make you appeal through TripAdvisor for a refund when they’re clearly in the wrong. What a horrible way to start the morning. Super disappointed, there are so many other tours in Reykjavik that do so much better
