My family of 10 was planning a trip to Iceland, but had to reschedule because of continuing concerns around the COVID-19 virus. Jon reached out to *me* to make sure we received the refund of our original deposit. What an honorable and considerate gesture, and extraordinary customer service. I hope when we're finally able to rebook a future trip, we're able to use BR Tours, because I know we'll be in excellent hands. Thank you, Jon.

I booked two full day trips, transfers to and from airport and the Blue Lagoon with this company. We were a party of four adults that included two ‘seniors’ one of whom is disabled - me! All arrangements were agreed in writing and I was provided with a full, clear Itinerary for our stay. The drivers arrived at the expected time for each occasion and the vehicles were exceptionally good. They managed my scooter (and the luggage) cheerfully - both in actions and attitudes and I was treated with dignity at all times. The day trips in a 4 x 4 were outstanding and adjusted by agreement to meet the party’s desires and weather changes. Both of the young men who escorted our party were charming, informative and great company. By the end of both days, we were a family! Thank you so much Gisele and Audunn! Without doubt you can see the Golden Circle and the South Coast cheaper by coach tour or self-drive but neither can compare with the personal service and depth of knowledge about the island, it’s geography, society and culture provided by one’s own tour guide. The journeys in a 4 x 4 are more comfortable and exciting too!! If this is your first, your only or a special trip, don’t think twice about paying for the best if you can. This was my second visit to Iceland but hopefully not my last. Thank you Ao Thur for making it such fun and with more marvellous memories -again. Hugs Mary.

I recommend to go to over the bridge to other side, where is less people. Then you can make nice picture without so many people ;)

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!

This was my first serious photography workshop and tour, and I admit to being skeptical at first. Wow, what an eye opener! I cannot imagine ever finding two better professional photographers and guides than Siggi Brynjarsson and Mads Iversen. They were just outstanding. This was a serious tour, a few of the other participants were among the best photographers I've ever met. And I can't imagine finding a better or more responsive organizer than Criz, who went way beyond for me and who I now chat with regularly. Fourteen days of non-stop photography through the depths of the Iceland winter is no small thing and they exceeded my expectations every step of the way. Bottom line, you can't go wrong with this team. One piece of advice: if you plan to go photograph Iceland in winter for 14 days, take lots of vitamins along because you will need them!
