We took our kids to Iceland for spring break as part of a package deal through Icelandair which included the Norther Lights Tour. In addition we booked the Blue Lagoon and the Golden Circle Tours. First, Icelandair charged us tickets for all our kids even though Reyjkavik Exursions does not charge in many cases for kids under 12. Second, a... More

expensive, fun Iceland! save your money before your trip because everything is more expensive than you planned. If you like the outdoors this is a great place to visit - hiking, thermal bathes, horse back riding (don't bring any riding gear - you can't use it in Iceland!) try different foods, buffets, fish, herring. go to the nonadvertised restaurants for...

I booked three tours from RE. One was simply a trip from the airport to the hotel, and back. The website promises pickup at the hotel, but fails to mention that not all scheduled buses include hotel pickup. That is to say, if the optimal bus for your flight leaves at 7, you would have to take the 6.20 bus,... More

Reykjavik Excursions offers good but basic tours to most tourist sites within a day's driving distance from Reykjavik. Don't expect a personalized, off the beaten path type of tour through them - they cater more to coach type tours however, they are great value and allow you to to see the same sites other more adventure tour companies offer at...

Basically took all trips with RE. They were helpful and the guides were great. We took the Flybus, the Golden Circle, The Blue Lagoon and the Northern Lights tours with them. Not a single complaint - it was all smooth traveling. And free wifi on the buses! More

We have just returned from 4 amazing days. We used Oli (Highlander Tours) as our guide. Just 2 of us in his Toyota, off road vehicle for 3 separate days. A fantastic experience. He is an extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. He was very flexible and nothing was too much trouble. As well as visiting all the 'must see' sights,... More

Highly impressed with this company! Had booked the south shore tour as part of our hotel/air package so did not have high hopes for this large bus tour as I usually prefer small tours however our guide was great! His knowledge of the people, country, and economy was impressive! More

My friend and I had an opportunity to use the flybus today. While the service was speedy and we made it to our destination with no trouble, the attitude of the porter (or the guy who puts the suitcases on the bus) was very off putting. After I had handed him my suitcase I tried to ask him a question... More

I've been saving up to go to Iceland for ages but could only afford to go for a short time so the days we did have were very precious. We were booked to go to the Blue Lagoon with them on our first day after lunch. We waited, and waited in the hotel before finally deciding to ring. They told... More
