“Rob was an excellent driver & guide. He was friendly & humorous, and at the same time knowledgeable about the area & sites we visited. There was plenty of time at each stop. Rob & Carolyn (delivered it to me on her way home from work) went above & beyond when I accidentally left my camera on the bus after the trip! I would highly recommend & use them in the future.”

Review of private Silfra snorkeling for six, with dry suits, underwater photos, hot chocolate, practical tips, and honest value advice.

“Everything was amazing. Our guide was so awesome and helpful and made us feel at ease, not to mention patiently herding us around like kindergartners getting all 5 of us into our gear. I was the only one wearing a westsuit to everyone else’s dry suit and I was kept pretty warm, except my feet. Going in January we were super lucky to not see too many people (well actually we had the whole place to ourselves, and we even had some sun!) I’m sorry I didn’t get our guides name but she was from Poland and so cool! Thanks! This mermaid really enjoyed herself!”

Review of BTH Travel’s private Golden Circle tour from Reykjavik, with Þingvellir, Geysir, Gullfoss, Faxi, Kerid, and guide Bjarni.

“We found our private tour with Bjarni to be very enjoyable and relaxing. He is flexible and has an easygoing demeanour and we never felt rushed or pressured to meet a schedule. You can stay a little longer somewhere or leave earlier. He has been a professional guide for a long time and is very knowledgeable and you can ask as many questions as you like. He also had arranged the order of the tour with certain stops at the right time to minimize competing bus traffic and to provide a lunch or washroom break. We would recommend for a professional private tour.”
