Fantastic experience with... - Fantastic experience with our guide Alain, he has a l9t of information and knowledge to share. Being able to get up close to a volcano and appreciate the vast amount of lava that once flowed around it, its a real eye opener, then to be able to walk on that very lava fields is phenomenal, you can literally feel the heat below you if you sit down and if you put a hand between a crevice you can feel the steam from inside, you have breath taking views along the whole route, once you reach the top you have spectacular views out to the coastal village of Grindavik and the current eruption site. I would 100% recommend this tour

Great Tour! - I just got off this tour with the very knowledgeable and charismatic islandic tourguide Tom, who showed us the highlights of the peninsula and told us a lot of interesting things about the area and Iceland itself. Sadly we couldnt see the active eruption because the fog was too thick, but it was still a great experience nonetheless!

Nice tour - The guide, Sarah, presented a lot of information, history and incidents about the places we visited. She also played multiple icelandic musics. These make us learn more about iceland. We were given sufficient time to walk around the scenic spots. This tour has good picks of scenic spots. The volcano hike is not difficult but the view was quite magnificent.

Whirlwind day trip - We took this day tour during a short stay, in order to maximise the number of sites we could see. Was a great day out and we felt that we achieved a large amount during the day. We got picked up from bus stop 6 by coach at around 8.30am, the coach was comfortable and warm. It was raining heavily on the day so make sure you have the correct waterproof gear on, including backpack covers or you'll be in for a soggy day. As an aside, bus stop 6 does not have any shelter from the elements, so get your waterproofs on before you leave the hotel, we joined a large group of other travellers seeking shelter across the road in an office doorway, not sure the office staff would have been pleased if it was later in the day! The views were simply stunning and it was great to stop regularly and to hear commentary local history from out guide. The hike element of the day is not too taxing, we were out for about 2 hours. The weather was not too kind to us on the day we went with high winds and driving snow, so the views were limited but, seeing the smoking lava fields were superb. I would give 2 bits of advice: 1) If you are going outside the Summer....... take the right outdoor gear, layers, waterproof top and bottoms, hat and gloves, it gets really cold and the weather can change quickly. Hiking boots are also essential. I would also take a change of footwear, socks and bottoms. You can leave your bags on the coach, so it is worth taking extra clothing to stay warm and enjoy the whole day, 2) Make sure you eat a good breakfast before you go and take some snacks with you. You can stop and eat at the Blue Lagoon but, that is not until around 1.30pm, so you would be seriously hungry if you skipped breakfast. I would also take a flask or a insulated mug with a hot drink in next time, was cold when we got back on the coach from the hike. Our trip dropped some people off at the Blue Lagoon whilst we went on to the lighthouse and the continents bridge, both great photo opportunities. It is a full-on day trip, we didn't get back until after 6pm but, if you are on a short stay trip it is a great way to get a flavour of Iceland, the stunning scenery and the geological make up of the island. Overall, I would recommend this trip and enjoyed it thoroughly. Hats off to our driver and guide for making it such an enjoyable day.

Fulfilling day - We had a great experience with Kalman and the blue lagoon at the end of the day was a perfect way to end the trip. It was a fulfilling day that striked the right balance between active and relaxing.
