Great tour - BB and Tate were great tour guides. Both clearly know a ton about the tour and Iceland. The ice cave was def worth seeing. BB took us to several stops along the way that were beautiful!

Awesome day - What a wonderful day. Elias our tour guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Iceland often explaining parts of the tour and the scenery on the long journey (long but beautiful countryside). The ice caves were lovely too and the guide was amusing, playful and also informative to really make the experience memorable

Katla Ice Cave and Southern Waterfalls - Quite the Experience - Excellent experience visiting the Southern coast area to include the waterfalls and Katla Ice Caves. Once in a lifetime tour taking us to picturesque sites and a stop in the town of Vik to the black sand beach. The guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history of all sites, sharing lots of information about all stops.

Best tour experience, highly recommend! - I was in Iceland for several days and went on 3 guided tours since I was traveling solo & didn't want to do all that driving. While all the tours I went on were good, this tour was my favorite. This was no doubt due to the amazing tour guide, Monika. Her dry sense of humor was funny & she was very friendly (offered to help take pictures, checked-in with guests throughout tour). However, what really stood out was the genuine admiration she had for Iceland and her generosity in sharing that with us. She added in extra stops along the way so we got to experience more of Iceland. She also thoughtfully curated a playlist of featuring Icelandic artists, so we could experience another aspect of Icelandic culture. Our guide for the Katla tours was also excellent, he helped every one take pictures in the cave. And he is so great with animals, we got to see his friends (the arctic fox & raven)!

Breathtakingly beautiful!!! - This was the most amazing trip, our driver was extremely knowledgeable and added additional stops on route. Absolutely no words for how beautiful the south coast is, the scenery is breath taking. The tour of the volcano plains and the ice cave was out of this world. One of the best excursions I’ve ever done.

Good tour but a lot of time is spent riding on the bus - Great tour but a lot time spent driving from place to place. Our guide did stop so we could see the black sand beach, which was beautiful. The highlight was the Katla Ice cave and seeing an arctic fox. Unfortunately, our tour guide was sick, admitted she was sick and didn’t wear a mask on the bus. So, my husband and I ended up catching her illness several days later.

Not worth it - The tour lasts about 11 hours. You get to see two waterfalls and climb a valley to see a tiny cave made of ice. Nothing like the picture shown in the ads. Its something different, but not really worth it. You spend most of the time in a car driving from one destination to the next. If you had limited time in Iceland, best to do something else.
