Kerid Crater

An indescribably wonderful trip and the best day tour I have ever taken. First of all, the bus tour guide himself had white hair and wore a traditional Icelandic patterned wool sweater, looking like a Viking stepped right into reality and instantly creating a strong sense of immersion. Along the way, we saw the magnificent daytime waterfall shining brightly under the brilliant sunshine. When taking the boat tour of the glacier lagoon, the captain gave each of us a piece of transparent, thousand-year-old iceberg to hold for photos. The apocalyptic feel of Diamond Beach was then brought to life with a ray of bright sunshine. We enjoyed delicious volcanic rock black pizza and endless refills of soup in a bread bowl in the town of Vik. We saw the Seljalandsfoss waterfall at night, surrounded by stars and the aurora borealis amidst the mountains—a rare and wonderful experience in a lifetime. On the way back, we were very lucky to encounter a major aurora outburst. The guide said that according to the rules, he was supposed to return the bus on time without stopping, but he felt we shouldn't miss such a gorgeous aurora, so he decided to take the risk to give us a lucky moment! He finally found a super viewing platform, and we all stopped to capture the most stunning night of the northern lights. It was an extremely memorable journey. Plus, there was free Wi-Fi throughout the entire trip, and the heating was so warm that wearing just a single sweater inside the bus was more than enough. The guide not only introduced every attraction to us, but before parting ways, he also shared his favorite local itinerary as an Icelandic native, including municipal hot springs, sculpture art, and the whale museum, among others. All in all, it was a perfect journey combining nature and culture, entirely deserving of a full score. If you are staying in Reykjavik, taking a tour like this means you won't miss a thing on the South Coast.

Great trip! Our guide was a retired Icelandic man who is very knowledgeable. I have brought some snacks with me and decided to skip the dine-in lunch. The guide arranged me to take a scenic hike trail around the town of Arnarstapi. Highly recommended!

oddychový jednodňový výlet. Sprievodkyňa (pani) bola priateľská a ústretová, odpovedala na všetky naše otázky a pridala zastávky, keď sme mali čas!

Faxafoss was a nice surprise, a smaller waterfall with almost no crowds, and a good spot for photos. Our guide knew all the quiet stops. Great day trip from Reykjavik.

Vodopády Skógafoss a Seljalandsfoss 瀑布彩虹🌈 Mrazivá zima, zavýjajúci vietor a lejak 光線折射現象自然的美麗 Svedkami kúzla lomu svetla v prírode pri vodopádoch Skógafoss a Seljalandsfoss. Dúhu sa podarilo zachytiť na oboch! 🌈 #Renisfjara黑沙灘天氣現象不好，已保持安全距離Podmienky na pláži Reynisfjara boli hrozné a napriek dodržiavaniu bezpečnej vzdialenosti 但真的被瘋狗浪捲走ma skutočne stiahla nebezpečná zradná vlna. 那一瞬間有想到如果我死了，家人可以領保險 1200萬V tej presnej chvíli som si pomyslel/a: „Ak teraz zomriem, moja rodina dostane aspoň 12 miliónov na poistení. #近視冰川Looking closely at the glacier， 白色的白非我我認知的白Far from ordinary white， 而是自然又帶點光線折射每個角度都迷人的不同的白🌟 Prírodná biela s lomeným svetlom, očarujúca z každého jedného uhla....

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

Deň predtým mi bolo náhle oznámené, že som bol preradený z čínskej skupiny do anglickej. Dúfam, že ak dôjde k zmenám v itinerári, budem o nich informovaný vopred, aby som mohol posúdiť alternatívne riešenia. Všetkým bolo oznámené, aby prišli na miesto stretnutia o pol hodiny skôr, aby počkali na autobus, ale autobus prišiel neskôr, ako bol dohodnutý čas stretnutia, a nebolo o tom vopred informované, čo spôsobilo úzkosť u prihlásených. Okrem toho bolo všetko celkom dobré, niektoré scenérie na Islande sú skutočne veľkolepé a krásne!

Guide Skarp is wonderful. Throughout the entire tour, he didn't stop explaining—from details about the passing villages to thorough explanations of each point of interest. Also, thank you for checking in on me when I was by myself. Even though it was a very large group, it was a fun and enjoyable experience. Even if you aren't fluent in English, if you record and use translation tools or GPT, you will understand 100% (even the jokes). Just keep in mind that the Secret Lagoon is an older place, so try to overlook its flaws haha.

Tento jednodňový výlet spojil dve najobľúbenejšie miesta – Zlatý okruh a Modrú lagúnu – do jedného dňa. Príplatok za Modrú lagúnu je v skutočnosti lacnejší, ako keby som si sám zabezpečoval transfer z letiska alebo Reykjavíku a vstup. Možno menej vzrušujúce ako Južné pobrežie alebo polostrov Snaefellness, ale dobrý úvod do Islandu. Som rád, že som to absolvoval hneď prvý deň po odchode z Reykjavíku.
