Ρέυκιαβικ Εκδρομές

We suddenly weren't able to rent a car, so I searched for a way to visit the places we had originally planned to see and found this! At first, I was worried about whether the bus would actually come, so we arrived at the meeting point 30 minutes before the scheduled time. The bus arrived a bit late, and they called out names so we could board. It wasn't full and there were plenty of empty seats, so we were able to spread out and relax! I slept through most of the travel time. When we arrived at each destination, we were told what time to be back, and off we went! The stops were generally set to about 30 to 45 minutes. Of course, we felt short on time at a few places, but since we could use the restroom, this was probably the best timing overall. We were told that food purchased at tourist spots could not be brought onto the bus. Well, everyone secretly snuck food in and ate it anyway, haha. Since driving to Diamond Beach requires a very long distance, being able to sleep on the way made me really glad I chose this tour.

Υπέροχο ταξίδι! Ο ξεναγός μας ήταν ένας συνταξιούχος Ισλανδός, πολύ ενημερωμένος. Είχα φέρει μαζί μου μερικά σνακ και αποφάσισα να παραλείψω το μεσημεριανό γεύμα στο εστιατόριο. Ο ξεναγός μου κανόνισε να κάνω μια γραφική πεζοπορία γύρω από την πόλη Arnarstapi. Το συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα!

So many similar buses come to the meeting place that it was hard to tell which one was ours. After about an hour on the bus, we arrived at a pitch-black location! At first, there were quite a few clouds, and I think we all pointed our smartphones at the sky for about 10 minutes trying to see something. Around that time, they handed out cocoa, and refills were available! Just as people were starting to head back to the bus, saying we probably wouldn't be able to see anything, someone shouted that they caught the aurora in a photo! We all ran over there and took pictures✨ A green aurora showed up in the photos, but to the naked eye, it looked like white wisps! Still, as an experience of seeing the aurora, I am extremely satisfied!

Η πιο δημοφιλής ημερήσια εκδρομή στην Ισλανδία. Ο ξεναγός μας ήταν γνώστης του αντικειμένου, προφανώς οι διοργανωτές ζήτησαν από όλους τους ξεναγούς να είναι προετοιμασμένοι. Ενώ ο κρατήρας ήταν μέτριος, οι καταρράκτες Gullfoss ήταν υπέροχοι και εντυπωσιακοί. Καταφέραμε επίσης να περάσουμε από μια μικρή φάρμα και να χαϊδέψουμε μερικά από τα άλογα της Ισλανδίας που είναι τόσο αξιολάτρευτα. Ας ελπίσουμε ότι η τιμή μπορεί να είναι λίγο χαμηλότερη.

Καταρράκτες Skogar & Seljalandfoss 瀑布彩虹🌈 Παγωμένο κρύο, ουρλιαχτός άνεμος και καταρρακτώδης βροχή 光線折射現象自然的美麗 Έγινα μάρτυρας της μαγείας της διάθλασης του φωτός της φύσης στους καταρράκτες Skógafoss και Seljalandsfoss. Είδα ουράνιο τόξο και στους δύο! 🌈 #Renisfjara黑沙灘天氣現象不好，已保持安全距離Οι συνθήκες στην Reynisfjara ήταν φρικτές, και παρόλο που κράτησα την απόστασή μου, 但真的被瘋狗浪捲走Με παρέσυρε ένα ξαφνικό κύμα. 那一瞬間有想到如果我死了，家人可以領保險 1200萬Εκείνη ακριβώς τη στιγμή, σκέφτηκα, «Αν πεθάνω τώρα, τουλάχιστον η οικογένειά μου θα πάρει 12 εκατομμύρια από την ασφάλεια. #近視冰川Κοιτάζοντας προσεκτικά τον παγετώνα, 白色的白非我我認知的白Μακριά από το συνηθισμένο λευκό, 而是自然又帶點光線折射每個角度都迷人的不同的白🌟 Φυσικό λευκό με διαθλάσεις φωτός, μαγευτικό από κάθε γωνία….

Our guide (Ari? I am not sure the spelling) but he was awesome! Gave us detailed introductions to the sites and also Icelandic history as we drove to each location. He answered questions and shared funny stories. I like that he shared some of the views of Icelandic people. It’s a good tour for solo travelers

We enjoyed the fullday Golden Circle Tour on Oct 16 at 10am! The weather wasn’t very sunny but it was still good enough to enjoy most of the sights! The tour felt quite rushed tho. Some stops had around 30 mins which felt insufficient if you wanted to take photos, enjoy the scenery & truly appreciate the place without constantly worrying about being late. It sometimes felt like we had to rush back to the bus. would have loved a little more time at each stop. Our favorite was the Geysir! We waited for the geyser to erupt several times just to capture the perfect photo & it was absolutely worth it. special mention to our guide MARGERIT, who was incredibly knowledgeable and told stories so vividly that I could almost picture things she described. Some of her stories genuinely inspired me to dream about returning to Iceland. That made the experience special! ✨ Overall, a great tour with beautiful sights and an excellent guide. I just wish the pace were a little more relaxed!

Έκανα τρεις ημερήσιες εκδρομές από το Ρέικιαβικ και αυτή είναι η αγαπημένη μου. Θα έχετε την ευκαιρία να δείτε μερικά από τα πιο εμβληματικά αξιοθέατα της Ισλανδίας, όπως ο καταρράκτης Skogarfoss και η παραλία Reynisfjara. Το συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα!

I have to put 4 stars because the volcano hike was shorter than what was written in the itinerary. I really like the hike for the volcano but the time spent is too short in my opinion. This tour is also split into 2 groups after the volcano hike, one for blue lagoon and the rest to Reykjanes area, which I think it's not very time efficient considering the time spent for each location is also short. For this, driving is recommended than joining the tour.
