Short answer: €140 per person is what most people pay. The cheapest we sell is €0 and the most expensive is €1,074. That range comes from 145 real sightseeing day tours across 56 operators — live prices, not estimates.
Hours in the vehicle and group size. The Golden Circle in a coach is the benchmark Iceland day tour price; the same route in a minibus costs more.
We can put a number on this rather than guess. Across 122 sightseeing day tours , the ones you drive to yourself have a middle price of €100, and the ones that collect you from your hotel have a middle price of €209 — 109% more.
If you have a car, meeting on location is the single biggest saving available on this kind of tour. If you are relying on the bus, the difference is what that seat genuinely costs to run — it is not a markup.
Medians across 80 meet-on-location and 42 pickup tours, per person, day tours only.
Cheapest is not always right — a €50 saving hurts less than a wasted day. These are the low-price options we'd still put our name to.

If a sightseeing day tour is the thing you came to Iceland for, pay the middle price rather than the floor — the difference usually buys a smaller group and a guide with time for you. If it's a nice-to-have on a day you're already busy, the cheapest option does the job. Either way, book it for a day early in your trip: if weather cancels it, you'll have another day to try again. Most of these run in Reykjavík, South Coast, North Iceland, Golden Circle.

No. You pay the operator's own price and we take a commission out of it, so booking here costs the same as booking direct — with one checkout if you book several tours.
On most of these, yes: cancel more than 24 hours before and you get the full amount back. The exact rule belongs to the operator and is shown on each tour page before you pay.
