Overview
I will be your guide on this private tour. I was born in Iceland and am the owner of this business. I have been working as a guide for 10 years now, and I love what I´m doing. I look at it as a privilege to have the opportunity to show people around this beautiful island. The Golden Circle is the most popular tour in Iceland. Almost too popular. I prefer to start the tours early to try to be ahead of the crowd. I know you will enjoy doing this tour with me in my roomy and comfortable van.

This famous hot spring that other similar hot springs are named after is dormant at the moment, but his little brother Strokkur is keeping up the show and erupting every 5-10 min
