We actually visited in June 2019.... but better late than never as I just came across the business card. Patrick was our guide and we have 2 teenage daughters. It was so much fun to drive fast through the beautiful Icelandic rolling hills. It was a highlight of our trip.... even though it was raining the whole time...lol!!!

We booked 5 days private tour with Iceland Premium Tours, and we were hosted by none other than the CEO Orvar himself. He has been very accommodating towards our request, and provided his unparalleled understanding of Iceland itself. We have been hit by bad weather thru the week, he never stopped a moment to suggest alternate alternatives, without compromising of safety. When we were on the way to the airport, knowing that we did not managed to see the aurora, he took a last effort and drove us to a location for a last ditch effort. And we managed to catch a glimpse of it finally! Thank you Orvar!

I actually visited back at the end of January 2020 just before the start of the pandemic and with all the drama of Covid, I never actually got round to posting a review. What an incredible tour this was! The waterfalls and landscape were just breathtaking as was the stop off for lunch! Our guide was very helpful and the bus journeys were comfortable. I cannot fault this company, booking was very easy and we were picked up right outside our hotel! I am a massive geography fan so this was a dream come true for me and the black beach is just stunning. The waterfalls are incredible (almost on par with Niagara Falls). I 100% recommend taking this tour to see some of Iceland’s beauty.

Highly recommend this tour if you planning to visit Iceland. Jens, one of the owner of this company is an understanding, responsible, professional and knowledgeable guide. We have joined the aurora and glacier tour in Feb 2020 and it was an unforgettable experience in my life. Just 3 of us in the group, like engaged a private tour. Jens will share the history of Iceland throughout the journey. Sometimes, he might be a bit quiet, but he will be able to answer every question and share the tips with you. Breakfast and dinner were included in the tour and he will stop along the way in town for us to grab the lunch. Breakfast is in buffet style and dinner prepared by the Farmhouse/Guesthouse was really really delicious! The Farm stay and guesthouse were cozy with nice view. The tour is reasonably priced and worth every penny.

Like Ralph Waldo Emerson once said. Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. Agenda is as simple as 2 + 2 first we’ll warm up hiking to our farthest destination, before descending into each cave we start with stretching, then exploration time and be ready for some squats, push-ups and more stretching ! More effort you put into these exercises more you’ll see and oh boy take our word for it, there is plenty to see ! Depending on your fit level we’ll see anywhere between 2 to 4 caves. So you’ll get some cardio/ work out day for sure. We do caving often and we know there is nothing better than warm bath after half a day spent underground in humid and cool environment but than again bath sounds sooo boring. Unless you are in Iceland where you can just simply submerge yourself in a natural hot geothermal stream... Found in a beautiful valley up in the mountains, enjoining tasty Icelandic style hot dog prepared with a help of hot springs!

Inclusions: Coffee and/or Tea, Fresh Icelandic style hot-dogs made on the spot, WiFi on board, Shiny gift to remember about us once you leave the island, Helmets, crampons, headlamps, gloves

In these uncertain times… When tourism became just a business. When all offered tours are overpriced and you became just a number in a crowded bus, when you want to feel special.. Who you gonna call..? G spot Iceland !!! We will take you on a travel through Reykjanes peninsula to understand how land of Ice and Fire was created. Unique landscapes, numerous types of volcanoes, open fissures and faults, geothermal areas and lava fields. You'll see inside out how whole process of land creation was happening. Unforgettable landscape, amazing forms, interesting history and subtle smell of mother nature. Amazing caves, steaming craters, hot pot bathing and nearly no tourists around us. Also on our lunch break we will cook for you some eggs on a energy harvested from hot springs. You have a option to choose from 3 different paths on this tour including one with a visit to recent 2021 eruption site ! And remember - as our guests say at the end of the route.. this is not a normal tour :)

This is a once in a lifetime experience you will never forget to an active volcano in Iceland! Join us on this unique tour to see the volcano at Fagradalsfjall, Iceland. You can expect a hike for about an hour and a half each way making this a combined hike of 3 hours through the rugged and raw terrain on the Reykjanes Peninsula. We focus on spending time at the volcano itself meaning we will stay by the eruption for at least two hours. We include photos on this tour, and try to view the volcano from different angles (weather depending).

Inclusions: Crampons (if needed), WiFi on board

Exclusions: Dinner

We had a 1:30 pm reservation, but in the last minute we wanted to change it to 3:30 pm so that we can do the currently active volcano in the morning. They accommodated our request. Our guide Einar Samuelsson was friendly, full of knowledge and funny. He was most helpful holding our hands to help us with difficult to navigate slopes. He made it one of the best highlights of our trip. I can't praise them enough.
