Had a great tour with Hjalti in June 2026. Although the pace of the tour was quick it was perfect for seeing many of the top sites of the south coast over only three days. Everything was arranged in a clear manner so we always knew where/when we were supposed to meet. One thing to be aware of is the tour group size is pretty dynamic ranging from as little as 3 people to 15-20, so it is a bit lof the uck of the draw if you end up with a larger or smaller group.
3 Day - Golden Circle, South Coast, Jökulsárlón & Ice CaveAmazing from start to finish! The tours themselves take you all over the south part of Iceland from the glaciers to the geysers. They pick you up from your hotel /hostel and fair warned can take up to 20-40 mins from the time it says to be waiting but does say this on the ticket. I wish we could have had a little longer in some areas but overall very happy with the experience and enjoyed every minute of it. I would recommend for solo travellers or anyone wanting to get around. The northern lights tour is at night too so you get a free day essentially to do as you please on the first day. Which i chose to go to the lava caves, whale watching and watch the lava show. All excellent in there own rights. Can not wait to go again!
3 Day Winter Package with Golden Circle, South Coast & AuroraI was thoroughly impressed with how well organized and balanced the tour was, both in terms of travel time and the amount of sightseeing packed into our limited schedule. If you are searching for a short fulfilling trip, especially when time is tight, I can’t recommend this option enough. Our driver and guide stood out for expertise and friendliness. He was well-prepared and also fluent both in English and German. I also appreciated his flexibility, making the decision to visit a waterfall a day earlier than planned turned out to be brilliant, as the weather shifted to snow the next day. Overall, this tour is a fantastic choice for anyone eager to experience some of Iceland’s most remarkable landmarks in a short time! I highly suggest this tour to travelers who want an efficient yet memorable adventure.
