Reykjavik Excursions Golden Circle Tour - Amazing amazing amazing! Staynun (sorry if I’ve misspelt it) was knowledgeable and kept the coach journey interesting, Anna was a super driver and got us to all our destinations safely. I didn’t know quite what to expect when I booked this trip and I was not disappointed. Luxury coach with comfortable seating, stunning scenery and plenty of time in each location so that it didn’t feel rushed, would definitely recommend. Thank you for an amazing day 😍

Super top class tour. Anytime again - Highly recommended. Our guide Paul was flexible about our wishes. The whole process was smooth and super punctual. He told us a lot about country and people and even gave us insights into srin's private life. We learned a lot of new things but also laughed a lot. I would book the tour again at any time

A tour operator at the Top - Excellent tour in the Golden Circle with breathtaking scenery (Lerid volcano, Gullfoss waterfall, Haukadalur geothermal zone, Pingwellir National Park...) Driver guide very pro We were the only French on a German bus and our driver adapted to speak to us also in English. The minicar is very comfortable. In short I recommend 100% this tour operator

Very enjoyable tour - We recently did the Golden Circle Shore excursion with Sven. He was such an informative guide. His local knowledge and friendly attitude made us feel like more like friends than just tourists. I would highly recommend booking a tour through SPS Travel

Amazing, small group experience , provides something for everyone - Absolutely amazing excursion! Small group size added a special personalized touch. Our guide Sven was outstanding. He is very knowledgeable, put safety first and provided an excellent tour. I appreciate the kind service and alternative options he provided for my mother with mobility limitations to feel fully involved in the tour. Highly recommend this tour, Sven, and this tour provider!

Good Tour In Spite of Miserable Weather - We were in a van with only eight of us. Our driver was also the guide and took us to the usual places of interest along the Golden Circle. It was a long tour, actually even longer than the eight hours listed in the online description. The weather was not very cooperative as it was very windy with clouds and even some rain at various times during the day. That was the only downside to the tour. No doubt it would have been much more enjoyable under better weather conditions.
