  Amazing, breathtaking scenery. As a group we were luck enough to see the northern lights on our first night, which was a totally fantastic experience.

  We had the upgrade and the Hotel was not bad there were a few minor issues with the first room, Plaza Central, which had a slightly warn carpet. The Breakfasts in the two hotels were very good were presented and offered a very wide choice. the staff were all very friendly and all spoke excellent English. The Tour was well organised and our tour guide, knew her business and the Bus always seemed to arrive at the various, sites when there were few other buses there. This did add to the enjoyment as we were never, rushed or crowded. Going early on the day prior to the Tour starting and leaving late on the day after allowed, us to have a good look around Reykjavik., We missed the Lights themselves but we may return again.

  1. Tour Guide was either not informed of the passengers to be picked up, no list given to them as She left the hotel without waiting on the schedule time given. Our schedule pick up in our itinerary clearly stated 9,15am and we were at the lobby at 9.05am. 2. The Tour operator should contact us the night before or at least inform the hotel reception. 3. There was not only not apology from the guide but kept repeating twice that if we are late to the next lunch schedule it would make us unpopular and embarrassing. I find this attitude not only unfriendly but insulting.

  We've just returned from Land of the Northern Lights 5 day tour. It was incredible! Our driver/guide was "Rock Rock" who was extremely informative about Icelandic culture and had a sense of humour, What made the tour so good was a group size of only 18 and we became friends with a number of other tour members. The bus was clean and comfortable and we managed to miss many of the larger coach party's when visiting the popular sights. The accommodation was very basic even though we upgraded but the hotels were clean, comfortable and perfectly adequate for 1 or 2 nights. We had read previous negative reviews about GJ Travel but our trip was thoroughly enjoyable and we wouldn't hesitate using them again.

  Fantastic small tour booked through Tourradar. Got exactly what was advertised with an awesome local tour guide. Highly recommend.

  Iceland is a beautiful country. Unfortunately, our tour guide ruined it for us. She did not introduce herself at fhe beginning of the tour, did not bother learning anyone's names, did not smile more than once and consistently spoke in a monotonous tone. Our old and run down bus was infested with flies and did not have proper insulation. Luckily, we met fantastic fellow travellers and banded together to find ways to make the best of an unfortunate and very expensive tour. Would not recommend.
