Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Elisabete took us on a marvelous journey around the Golden Circle! We learned much as she wove together stories of the history, people, and geology of Iceland. Her bright and enthusiastic personality made the day extra special!"
"Elizabete was very knowledgeable, friendly and fun. She made us feel very comfortable in spite of the weather. "
"We were undecided on what to do in Reykjavik on a recent cruise. We had been here before but were traveling with family, one person who walked slowly with a cane. We decided to take a walking tour at the last minute with Lalli. I let him know we had a slow walker with us and he led us on a wonderful tour of the city. He was extremely understanding about making a stop to rest for my brother; was very imformative including a good dose of humor; and truly loved sharing his city with us. We enjoyed a special fish and chips lunch together and he was the perfect guide for our morning in Reykjavik. I'd highly recommend Lalli to anyone wishing to learn about the history and culture of this wonderful city."

"Elizabeth was very knowledgeable about the area and customs . She was personable to my husband and I. I would highly recommend her for a wonderful experience in Iceland. "
"The tour was great! We were so stuffed after it, all the food was delicious! Highly recommend! "
"I can't say enough wonderful things about Elisabete! I was recently on a trip to Iceland with my friend and our two 18 year old kids. She helped put together a custom tour that was perfect for us. Elisabete is super knowledgeable about the geology and archeology of Iceland, which is something that really interested us. Elisabete was also great at gearing the activities to our various skill levels. She connected with us on a personally level, too, so it felt like we were traveling with a friend which made the trip that much more fun!"
"We had a terrific golden circle tour with Elisabete! She was on time, had comfortable transportation, and was a wealth of knowledge. So much enthusiasm for her country! She also took us to a couple of little stops not normally on the tour! By the end of the day she felt like a life long friend! Would highly recommend to anyone I know who is visiting. "

When you hit the road and land in a new city like Reykjavik, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Reykjavik spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Reykjavik.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Reykjavik, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Reykjavik awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.
So, next time you're in Reykjavik, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Reykjavik. Get ready to explore like a local!
