Witness an amazing natural phenomenon at Strokkur, where a column of water erupts from the earth and spouts up to 20 to 30 meters into the air.

Robert was a wonderful guide - very informative and always made sure to remind people to be respectful of everyone’s time and be on time when we were left on our own. After seeing gigantic buses on the same tour, the small group tour was definitely the way to go. The Golden Circle is not to be missed and it was nice to have someone else do the driving and share such informative details about what we were seeing.

Very good epxerience

This was a very good experience, which allowed us to visit several sights on one excursion. We chose the small group option, so that we weren't rushed (I'm a little slow, mobility wise.) There were 19 of us in the group, and the pace was reasonable, although we were a little rushed at the national park due to the distance between the various points of interest. It was great that we had a couple of extra stops to see and feed Icelandic horses and to enjoy some locally produced ice cream (which was pricey but delicious!) My only issue was with the minibus - it was very compact/cramped.

Absolutely superb all day trip, just do it!

Nice Travel - David the guide. Best out of all the trips we did on our Reykjavík long weekend - superb quality mini bus, great narration from David with humour too. Well informed and nice personality, made us all feel very welcome. Sights were good and we weren’t rushed along, that’s the benefit of a small group tour. Of all the typical trips we did over our 3 day visit, this was the best and having travelled with 4 other tour operators, was also the most professional and smart.
