Outstanding tour!! - This was a group of 5 friends on a private tour of the South Coast and Glacier Lagoon, and we had an absolutely fantastic time! It was an amazing tour with beautiful sights of the landscape, including mountainside and valleys, waterfalls, lava fields, black sand beaches and glaciers. Each was stunning in its own way. From the outset, the company (Gunnar) was highly responsive and communicative in handling the booking - - responding to our questions and providing clear directions in advance. Jen, our tour guide, was simply the best!... friendly, very knowledgeable and shared a wealth of information along the tour. She put us all at ease, made sure we were comfortable (and safe) throughout and gave us tips at each stop to maximize the experience. It was a long day but she kept it interesting throughout, and flexed the itinerary to allow us more / less time when warranted but also to fit in an opportunity to see some puffins! This was highlight among highlights for our Iceland trip... knowing we will be back!

Memorable South Coast and Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon Private Day Tour - We had very limited time at Reykjavik and my husband wanted to cover so much in so little time - tour the South Coast scenic spots, visit Diamond Beach and ride the zodiac boat in the JÖKULSARLON Glacier Lagoon - all within a day! But thanks to the accommodating team of Friend In Iceland, this item in my husband's bucket list was happily fulfilled. We covered 800km in 14 hours (back-forth from the Reykjavik Cruise Terminal where our ship was docked overnight but where we had to disembark by 9am the next morning). Yet, we did not feel exhausted at all thanks to our superb private tour guide Saga Jen. My husband and I and our 2 daughters were comfortably seated in a very spacious 4 x 4 Mercedes Benz 9-seater van during the tour - each of us essentially had an entire row in the car for ourselves! Saga's driving was so smooth and she was so engaging during the car ride (pointing out interesting things as we traversed the incredible South Coast terrain) that we barely noticed the great distance we had covered within a span of 14 hours. She was also very attentive to our needs - making sure we had short stops along the way to stretch or use the rest room or grab something to eat - while ensuring that we were still on schedule. And unlike large public tours where you feel you are being rushed to leave when you get to the scenic spots, Saga Jen never made us feel that we were being ushered here and there. At each scenic stop, she engaged with us so that we felt she was part of our family instead of a timekeeping 3rd party. A private tour is undoubtedly more expensive than public tours but this private tour with Saga Jen was definitely worth it. Thank you, Saga, for making our once-in a-lifetime trip to the South Coast so memorable and special.

an amazing trip in iceland - It was an amazing trip. Iceland seemed to be magic and made me fall in love with it quickly. Our guide, Xiaojuan, is gentle, lovely and experienced, and she arranged our trip throughout, which making the trip more relaxing and enjoyable. I recommend that you bring waterproof clothes if you go to Iceland in winter.😊😊😊
