Breathtaking landscape ! Magic!! - We did this tour independently. I strongly recommend it. Mesmerizing landscapes and fantastic hiking. At the end you are rewarded with a free bath in the geothermal natural pool situated at the camping base. Priceless, after hiking almost 20km.

Excursion Landmannalaugar - We made a day trip to Landmannalaugar with Bus Travel Iceland. Our guide Alain was amazing! Very cultured and full of respect with all the participants, he knew how to surprise us, tell us stories, anecdotes, explain us some geological phenomena. At the end of the hike we were able to go swimming in the hot springs of the site. A very appreciated moment! Several stops on the way and back to show us waterfalls, or a lake... which made the journey less boring (4h30 go and as much rau around on average). We enjoyed a very pleasant weather and a top guide who made this day incredible! We recommend!

Best tour ever - Wonderful landscape, perfect tour timing and mesmerizing waterfalls. We also had a 2-hour-long hike! Loved it so much.
Our tourguide - Roman - told us a lot about the country, explained everything in detail. He took good care of all of us and he has a very good sense of humour.
This tour was the highlight of my trip.

Always one extra spot with Beggi. He is very knowledgeable and safe guide and driver for this trip. - I went this trip with Beggi, i did two tours with him, and honestly a guide can totally enhance your experience. From all the 6-7 guided tour I took, those two with Beggi was the best. And also landmannalauger is one of my trip highlight.

Other worldly day trip. - Had a fabulous day, visiting the Valley of Tears en route. Amazing trip and so fascinating and worthwhile, The landscape is indescribable - almost lunar. Roman was an excellent guide. Very enthusiastic. The dip in the natural hot springs at the end of the hike was something we will always remember.

Glorious landscapes, with a view on Icelandic mentality - Glorious day out. The landscape is simply amazing and is not even the best thing we experienced. Our guide Sarah was for once open not only to share what she knows about the place - and it's aplenty - but also to let us have a glimpse into Icelandic mentality and way of life. It was most appreciated, expecially because as a tourist in a Nordic country is not really easy to penetrate the relational level. Plus, the price was the best if compared with other agencies, we were perfectly on time and the drive was smooth. Congratulations!

Mixed feelings - We were called 3 days before the tour to say it wasn’t available on the day we booked. They didn’t explain why or even apologise, they just asked us what other days we could do, luckily we could go the day before. Once we were on the tour, we had an amazing day, the scenery is mind blowing!

Only an OK experience for our group - I was excited to go into the inner part of Iceland, but this trip was only OK. Had done ice climbing and snorkeling, and this seemed to pale in comparison. Bus driver was aggressive and really tailgated other cars; hike was good but short. Seemed like a long drive to get there for an experience that was not a WOW. Stops along the way (waterfalls, crater) were OK ... but we saw way better waterfalls and craters/cinder cones in previous days. Seems like a lot of time and money for not an amazing day.
