Perfect Day - Our driver wasn’t just a driver—he was the a musician, historian, comedian, and the unofficial mayor of every village we passed through. The sights were beautiful and we had the perfect amount of time at each location. Would we do it again? Honestly, yes. There is something special and unique to touring with a small group and the memories made will last a lifetime.

An unforgettable day with many surprises from the guide! - We had an outstanding day (daughter 10 years) Smari was a really great guide who guided us through the day and always had surprises ready! 👏 For my daughter, the fact that he surprisingly also spoke German was a super side effect I always immerse myself in the sounds of Iceland, as smari also has a surprise in store for this Absolutely full score and to recommend everyone to do this tour. Thank you Smari for these great moments that will stay forever. Feel free to contact us if you come to Munich as announced!

11/10 Tour🔥 - Amazing 11/10 tour. From every stop, to the fascinating stories and facts our wonderful guide, Smàri (the best part of the tour) shared, a great meal and a dip in the relaxing pool of the Secret Lagoon. If you’re really lucky, you may even get to experience a concert!

What A Great Day! - Thought this would be a great way for our family of 4 to see many beautiful things in Iceland. I am so happy to say I wasn’t wrong! Breathtaking scenery with our own chance to explore, an amazing lunch, a perfect lagoon to relax in at the end of the day, and an amazing tour guide, Smári! He did a great job for us and was so knowledgeable and friendly! Even though it was a long day for our 10 and 7 year old kids, they enjoyed it and did well! I would definitely recommend this small group tour to others!

A glorious day in Iceland - Wonderful trip. Beautiful countryside, not too overwhelming. The tomatoes at frioheimar were amazing and the secret lagoon was a nice end to the day. Back in Reykjavik at 630 for dinner. Our guide Smari was so kind and sincere. A great day! Highly recommend. And we got to see all the weather… But who cares if it’s raining if you are drinking a beer in a hot natural spring!

Most Excellent - I am just back home from a trip to Iceland. I am still gobsmacked at the incredible natural beauty of the land and the innate hospitality of the Icelanders. While there we took the Golden Circle tour with Holiday Tours that brought us to spectacular sites. From the roaring Gullfoss Waterfall to the punctual Strokkur Geysir (where we had our geyser heavenly baptism, watch the wind direction) and the stroll through the tectonic plate rift valley this tour provided us with a eye-catching sample of Iceland. We were shepherd on our tour by our driver / tour guide, Smari, who gave us an insight to nature's influence on the shaping of Iceland and the history of the Icelandic people. At each stop Smari ensured we were shown exactly where we were to be picked up, where the WCs are and what services were available. An excellent Shepherd! Our final stop at the Secret Lagoon was the icing on the cake, not only were we able to relax in the warmth of the lagoon waters but we were also entertained by Smari with a sampling of his slide guitar repertoire. I sat there just soaking in the music and etching into my memory the most spectacular day I had in Iceland. Takk Fyrir Hoiday Tours and Smari
