Absolutely amazing tour! - We did a private South Coast tour, and I have to say it was one of the best tours I have ever been on. Our driver, Jón, was amazing and very informative. We had so much fun learning about Iceland, seeing so many beautiful sights and making wonderful memories. I would highly suggest using this company for your tour in Iceland, you won't regret it!

We had a great day! - Our group enjoyed the private tour, we set our own pace so we could see everything and not be exhausted! Guide was great, had lots of interesting stories and we had a delightful day. It was our best van tour over the 5 days we were touring the Reykjavik area.

A wonderful trip in Iceland with Gunnar. - We booked a private 2 day tour down the south coast of Iceland together with Gunnar.
He is such a nice guy that knows everything about Iceland and can tell you a nice fairy tale about every rock or waterfall you pass by.
Most important for us was, that we are somehow off the tourist tracks and Gunnar fulfilled this wish. Sometimes it felt like we were the only ones on the island.
This trip is absolutely worth it.
Thank you Gunnar for this great experience.

Highly recommended! - We had a wonderful time doing a two day private tour with Gunnar to the south coast. Gunnar was very responsive and helpful with planning the trip, and recommended an excellent hotel to stay on the south coast. We learnt a lot about Icelandic history and culture from him. He is reliable and drives very safely, even in deep Icelandic fog! Gunnar also organised a great ice cave tour for us. We’d go again without any hesitation!!!

Special Trip with a Special Guy - 5/5 Recommend! - Gus is 10 stars!! We could not recommend Friend in Iceland more. We spent a couple of days in Iceland at the end of January/start of February 2022. As we did not have a huge amount of time we opted to book with Friend in Iceland and are so glad we did. Thanks to Gus we were able to see a huge amount in a short space of time. Gus is super knowledgable and very attentive. He was fabulous with his recommendations and went out of his way to make sure this trip was a special one for us! Which it was!! We can't wait to go back to Iceland and book in again with Gus!
