Pick up at the stop on time, good point. The tour includes a good and varied set of attractions to see near the capital. Friendly guide. I would recommend adding an audio guide in Spanish for this tour.

It was a very convenient way to see the city for a really fair price. I have recommended it to other travelers already.

Informative narrative. Interesting route that provided us with the overview of Reykjavik that we wanted. Convenient pickup point near our hotel.

Booked with my partner for our anniversary. The guides gave us a shoutout on the boat which was cute. Saw whales, seals, and a surprise pod of dolphins. Unforgettable.
