If you ever find it cheaper on their own site, tell us and we will match it or explain why we cannot.

Sold out on your date?
Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.
Who this is not for
- Not a good fit if you want a relaxed day: 12 hours is a long time on the road, most of it spent getting there and back.
- Not for late risers on your first morning — the earliest departure is 01:00, and Reykjavík pickups start before that.

I absolutely loved my northern lights tour with Icelimo. Kel, our guide, was really nice, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. He took the time to explain everything, drove us away from the crowds and found the perfect spot to watch the lights dance in the sky. It was a magical experience and I highly recommend!!

Excellent service, they were always attentive to detail. I especially want to mention our guide, Briosh, for explaining everything in the places we visited. Iceland is wonderful, but it's so much better with a company and guide of this caliber. Thank you so much! Highly recommended for anyone wanting to go to Iceland.

The full-day, Golden Circle tour with Jan was remarkable and memorable. He was engaging, knowledgeable and enjoyable. And he easily accommodated the two 80-year olds with us. The scenery and conversation were excellent. A very well-done tour.

I am the owner of Discover Scandinavia Tours, a boutique tour operator located in Florida and specialized in creating excellent Scandinavian vacations for North American travelers. My team and I have been entrusting Icelimo Luxury Travel with our clients touring Iceland for a number of years and I simply cannot say enough positive things about them. When it comes to professionalism, attention to detail and customer satisfaction, Icelimo is simply impossible to beat. It is no wonder that our clients come back from Iceland raving about their experience. Thank you very much for such a wonderful partnership, Icelimo team!

Airport transfers — questions people ask
How do I get from Keflavík Airport to Reykjavík?
It is about 50 kilometres and 45 minutes by road; there is no train. Scheduled airport coaches run to the BSÍ terminal after every arrival and are the cheapest option. Private transfers (/experience/942190/, /experience/1193487/) meet you at the door and drop you at your hotel, worth it for families or late arrivals. Taxis are expensive. If you are stopping at the Blue Lagoon, book a transfer that includes it (/experience/1036423/).
How early should I be at Keflavík Airport for my flight?
Two and a half hours before a European flight and three before North America; the airport is small and queues bunch around the morning and afternoon departure waves. From central Reykjavík allow 45 to 60 minutes' driving plus a buffer in winter weather. That means leaving your hotel three and a half to four hours before departure. Coaches and transfers work backwards from your flight time when you book.
How do I get to Landmannalaugar without a 4x4?
By highland bus. From late June to September, scheduled transfers run from Reykjavík to Landmannalaugar (/experience/247406/, /experience/914986/) and back, about four hours each way on gravel and river crossings. The return-in-a-day option (/experience/270187/) gives you several hours at the site. Rental cars without 4x4 are not insured on these roads and get stuck. If you are hiking Laugavegur, the luggage transfer (/experience/1036525/) moves your bag hut to hut.
Is a private airport transfer worth it?
For three or more people, or a night arrival, yes. The coach drops you at a terminal or a hotel bus stop and you may need a shuttle or a walk with luggage; a private car goes door to door and waits if your flight is late. For a couple on a daytime flight with light bags, the coach is fine and much cheaper. Check the tour page for what happens if your flight is delayed.
