We enjoy it.We get to meet fantastic people from a variety of backgrounds and we take them on a journey through our beautiful country.

A week ago I was touring the south coast of Iceland with Goecco. My guide was Þröstur Freydal. The plan had been the Snæfellsnes 2 on 1 Summer Day Tour, but I was the only traveler, so we changed the plan and headed south to view Eyjafjallajökull ("eyeful garble" to me), the volcano that had thwarted some of my travel...

The day trip my husband and I took to Snæfellsnes with Ymir, "the hiking viking", was definitely my favorite day in Iceland and also one of the best small tours we've ever been on. Much of this is due to Ymir himself, who is full of great stories and fun to hang out with. But the whole group (appx 8... More

My boyfriend and I went to Iceland in March and did not have much planned when we arrived. The one thing we booked was Goecco's "Magical Mystery Snæfellsnes Winter Day Tour". It was a great way to see the west coast of Iceland! Jonas was our guide and his brother was our driver. Jonas made sure our small group was... More

We have been on many private tours and small group tours around the world and this outfit delivered but not in any exceptional way. The vehicle was not very clean and the smell of cigarette smoke pervaded. Yes, they take a different route from normal tours and the natural hot spring experience was a highlight. FYI - it was just... More

Prior to booking the Glacial Lagoon tour, I was slightly unsure whether to do it or not due to the price but I'm extremely glad I did. I went on the tour with my girlfriend and it may seem excessive but she has since commented that it was the best day of her life and I would have to say... More

Goecco tours is a fantastic organisation offering tailored day trips or short breaks in Iceland. We embarked on the White Nights Tour on a Saturday afternoon and were fortunate to have superb weather for our hike. This tour guide picks you up from your hotel/ guest house and takes you to a secluded part of the countryside where you commence... More

WOW! I actually joined trip adviser to recommend this (no joke)! Jonas went out of his way to arrange a fantastic tour for us with the incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and informative Steiner. We took the Glacial Lagoon Day Tour and I have to say for a one day trip, that is dedication from the staff considering how much we packed... More

Not for everyone but if you want a small group, off the beaten path,politically incorrect this is the trip for you. Did snaefellness and jokarlsson in 2011 and 2012 and each trip was a whole new experience. The day and the group dictates the adventure. More

If you are looking for a “touristy” bus trip with a big group where your every minute is planned out then Goecco is NOT for you! If you are looking for fun, off the beaten path adventure where you go with the flow and live a little then Goecco IS for you! Jonas is excellent! He tells you how it... More
