The waterfalls, the black sand beach and the glacier were amazing experiences. Icelandic south coast is a must to visit to experience real Iceland.

Greg_S

Our tour guide Chris was fantastic. I was like a wide-eyed child on this trip. Every single stop was magnificent and incredible. I also like the small sized group. The black sand beach can't be described in words. Lunch at the brewery and burger place in Vik were a delightful surprise The final stop at the Gljufrabui slot canyon waterfall (near Selljandfoss) deeply touched my soul.

Fantastic experience! The guide was very informative, funny and, most importantly, he didn't talk for all the trip but only when needed! Bus could be a little more comfortable, but the experience is worth the price.

A truly wonderful introduction to the South Coast - Nature at its best.
Susannah_R

This is a truly wonderful tour - a long day but each sight is breathtaking and makes the travel worth it. I cannot recommend it enough. You will stand in awe over and over again. Having a great guide also helps, but I am sure they are all fab. Cannot think of any negatives, it will be a day to remember.

More informative guide needed- views spectacular
Alison_T

The trip itself and the sights were exceptional but there was sadly no information from the guide at all. When we reached vik I wanted to walk rather than have lunch saw an amazing statue but he knew nothing about it and not overly interested when I looked it up on Google - actually a famous statue twinned with one in hull so would have visited friendship statue if I’d known. Husband not as agile but he didn’t wait for the slower members at the glacier. However sights amazing

Iceland's South Coast is beautiful and rich, but our tour guide did not do it justice
evie_p
, Apr 2022
Overall, we were happy with the (small) size of the group, the luxury van that was very comfortable, and the schedule we followed during the day. However, we were expecting more from the tour guide. We were hoping for some narration, interesting stories, background on the places we visited, but none of this was offered during the tour. Essentially, the talking was kept to a minimum (and also very low volume). Our tour guide, Julian, was very nice and polite, but would not recommend, if you're looking to learn more about Iceland's beautiful nature and history.

Had a great time on this tour lead by Micheal. We was an expert at navigating the tricky Icelandic roads and adjusted our schedule to be sure we saw everything. Michael was funny, engaging, knowledgeable, and awesome! Holiday tours was super easy to book through. I even changed my pick up destination that morning, and they picked me up from the new spot with no problem. I highly recommend this company

I didn't think this trip would be as good as the golden circle but it was. It's a very varied trip, going inside a waterfall at one stop then close to a snowy glacier at the next. Thomas was a friendly and very knowledgable guide. Highly recommended.

Francesca_V

If I could place 10 stars, I would!! The guide,Kris, was very friendly, gave us a lot of explanation and tips on the hidden spots to check out every time we were stopping somewhere. The places we visit were absolutely breathtaking, mainly the hidden waterfall where we could stay just 1 meter away. Even with a lot of snow was super doable and actually even nicer !

Amazing day, great tourguide, bus too crampedsmall too
Vincent_M

The day ways beautiful. One of the best days I have had traveling in my life. The driver and tour guide, Petra, was our very own Wonder Woman. She's amazing, professional kind and patient with my klutziness. The bus was very clean, but it's too small. I was very uncomfortable. I'm a very large person. I didn't know the seats were to narrow, the windowd to low from me to see the mountains.
