Very great day tour which get around diamond circle. This take around 8-9 hours to complete. Tour guide was very good and informative, time for each place is enough to enjoy and walk around each place and quite flexible time. Overall very good value for people who come from cruise ship (like us) or want good day tour.

Norbert was an excellent guide who was very entertaining and informative. It was really nice chatting to him, and he was happy to answer all the questions we had. The tour included all the highlights that we wanted to visit, and we had sufficient time at each stop. Norbert also kindly offered to take photos for us, and showed us the best angles and spots for great pictures! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in learning more about the history and folklore behind these stunning places.

Ármann was a fantastic guide for our tour. He is very knowledgeable about every aspect of Iceland, past, present and future, and in particular he is a geology specialist. He left no stone unturned in showing us so many unique sights on the Diamond Tour. We would highly recommend this fun and interesting tour to really get to know Iceland! Jess & Charlie
