If you are visiting Iceland for the first time you simply cannot miss "The Golden Circle". This iconic route represents one of Iceland's most famous day tours. Because of the very close distance, 250 km (155miles) Golden Circle fit's perfectly in every schedule. For me, it was also the first place I explored after coming to Iceland fourteen years ago. Since then I have visited the Golden Circle hundreds of times, and get to know every inch of that region. Right now, I founding joy in sharing that knowledge, and every moment of good memories we created together with my guests. Forget about crowded buses that are full of tourists and strictly follow their busy schedules regarding visiting destinations. I want to offer you a chance to discover Iceland in a relaxing atmosphere of traveling in a very comfortable and spacious "off-road legend" Toyota Land Cruiser 150 Prado It is you who is the most important for me during our trips. Your experience is my priority! It is crucial for me, that you feel like you're visiting your friend in Iceland. I like to think of myself as a "host" and I will be more than happy to help you with all possible "difficulties" you might come across in the foreign country... So you can collect full luggage of just good memories from Iceland! Before our experience, I will pick you up from your hotel or place of your choice in the capital area.
