    Our trip was amazing and without fault! Pick up was easy from BSI terminal, Our tour guide was great (can’t remember his name but he had a lovely Everton flag to help find him :-)) and our driver was first class, handled the blizzard we drove through exceptionally!! We loved seeing the sights and learning about the history and the snowmobiling was just an amazing experience, definitely one to remember! thank you to all

    Personally I could take or leave the Golden Circle part of this tour but the snowmobiling was absolutely amazing! When you stop at the Geysir there is a little cafe - expensive but had a lovely tomato soup here. Snowmobiling is next level - absolutely stunning up on the glacier. Special mention to our snowmobiling guy (can’t remember his name but he had a long black beard!) - he was fantastic. Definitely recommend and is worth the money

    Overall, we had a great day out. The guide was very welcoming, funny and engaging, and the other staff (both the bus driver and snow mobile guides) delivered a safe and enjoyable experience. It was a very long day (10-11 hours) but even so we had a lot to cram into the journey. Sadly we had a very short time at some of the stops which meant that in some cases we didn’t go to fully explore the sight because we were concerned that we would miss the stop or the refreshments. I’m not sure if there were trips which perhaps didn’t include the snowmobiling but I would perhaps split them up next time in favour of getting more time to explore the sites. But other than that, I couldn’t fault it.
