Wonderful Golden Circle experience - We enjoyed a fabulous day off our cruise ship with Andres taking in Thingvellir National Park, the Geyser, Gullafoss waterfall and a bathe in the Secret Lagoon. He was also kind enough to stop further on the way back to see some of the key sights with the city of Reykjavik. Andres accommodated all of our requests and nothing was too much trouble. we enjoyed very relaxed conversations throughout the day. He is a very kind and considerate person. His driving was calm and measured. We would fully recommend this tour to anyone in Reykjavik but particularly to cruise passengers who would probably be paying something like double the cost for half the time and with a coachload of people rather than a private SUV with Andres.

One of the best guides, if not the Best - Where do I start? How about saying Andres is an amazing guide. Not only knowledgeable about the sites we visited, but also of the Icelandic people, their history and Iceland history as it interacts with the rest of the world. And Andres is willing to adapt to his customer desires, be it weather related, hiking ability and more. Worth all the money it takes.

Awesome one day tour of Iceland! - Andres did an amazing job of customizing our private tour to maximize our experience with limited time in Iceland. We had a 23 hour layover on our way to Rome, and this tour was perfect to give us a taste of Iceland and the desire to return. He picked us up from the airport and took us to see waterfalls, volcanoes, geysers, a lagoon, a visit to Reykjavik, and then back to our apartment near the airport. He is a wealth of knowledge, a very safe driver, and has a great personality. Highly recommend Mercury Grail and Andres to anyone visiting Iceland!

The best ever!!!!! - We had the best day with Andres doing the golden circle tour. He was SO knowledgeable and gave us all of the coolest, most interesting information that I absolutely didn’t hear on my trip in previous years with one of the big tour bus companies. He let us work off our own schedule and spend longer in some places, and shorter in others which was amazing. His car was clean, brand new and so so comfy, and his driving was safe and I felt extremely comfortable and in good hands. He also took great pictures for us!!!

The best of the best - Andres is knowledgeable, funny, respectful and accommodating. May be the best tour I ever went on. We were smiling the whole time. He patiently took photos. He even took me to a local gem wool store. We had a magical time. Highly recommend.

Golden Circle tour for a day - We enjoyed our day trip around the Golden circle very much. Anders is a well-seasoned and experienced guide, and he is easy company! Sadly, we were not blessed with the brightest weather, so photos are a bit dull, but the day was both informative and enjoyable.

Great use of money - Much better to have a private guide like Andreas. Set your own time etc. He was a welcome change to group tours.
