It was a great tour to see all the southern Icelandic highlights.
The driver Omur was great, he had so many stories to tell and always took time to answer any question.

We were there during the volcanic eruption when the Blue Lagoon was closed. Nice did a great job of getting us into another hot springs instead. Also, at the request of one of the participants the tour bus driver make a side trip to the Tomato House, a church and also made a couple of unscheduled stops on the way home when he noticed that the Northern Lights were visible. It was the best display ever. The ice at the stops was treacherous but the bus gave out crampons which helped tremendously and the driver was very helpful helping my wife walk on the ice. This is not a tour where the guide gets out with you and walks you around with headphones to tell you what you are looking at, however the driver did give a colorful narrative while driving. Also, we were staying at a hotel where tour busses were not allowed to pick up so we drove to their office to meet the bus at the start of the tour and it was almost impossible to find in the dark, even with having the address and GoogleMaps.

We did a fair amount of trips in Iceland but we can say with confidence that this was our favourite. Every single spot of this trip was special in its own right. The place where the tectonic plates meet was fascinating from a geological perspective, the Gulfoss waterfall was impressive with its force and definitely a place where you can marvel at the power of nature and the Kerid Crater shows how beautiful the calm after the storm can be.
Our last stop was at the Blue Lagoon which was a fantastic experience in itself and a perfect way to relax after a long day on the road. The fact that the ticket is included in the price is very convenient as it is one less thing to worry about. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would strongly recommend this trip.

We had a great time and loved every stop. Because of the recent eruption we were unable to go to Blue Lagoon, however we were given multiple options to choose from including another hot spring. Our tour guide was good, he was very informative however there were some issues with picking up after some stops. However, overall great experience and would recommend.

This trip was truly amazing! We had some last minute changes due to the blue lagoon being closed but we’re kept informed and we felt like we missed nothing.
Our guide was super knowledgable and so funny. Thank you Bart!! My demanding teenagers were kept laughing and entertained on the long drives in between stops. Playlist was also great!
The Kerid Crater is not for the faint hearted ?. Ask for the crampons!
So worth the money! Would definitely recommend!

5*s are for driver Siggi, a super safe driver and true comedian with an excellent play list (and Spotify link share to follow).
What a funny guy, he brought itinerary to life, gave clear instructions for each stop/ site that meant not waiting for late comers at each stop (and much detail about Iceland thru tour).
Stops on our itinerary as detailed, they were great.
Due to recent volcanic eruption, we were switched to Sky Lagoon which was super fancy and truly enjoyable.
Great day - thanks Siggi
