This is the shortlist we’d hand a friend flying into Keflavik: the 10 private tours worth booking, each with its price, its traveller verdict, and the one thing to know before you commit.
Private South Coast day from Reykjavik with Skogafoss, Reynisfjara, the Vik Lava Show, a glacier walk, and waterfalls.
“Waterfalls, black beaches, lava show, beautiful scenery with Icelandic horses, sheep and farmlands. Our driver/guide Levi was personable, knowledgeable and added to this enjoyable experience that we will never forget,”
Private Golden Circle tour from Reykjavik with Sky Lagoon, Fríðheimar tomato greenhouse lunch, and major sites like Gullfoss, Geysir, and Þingvellir.
“Max and Hidden Iceland were great guides. The bus was comfortable, they organize the tour to minimize crowds as much as possible as we were the first at the lagoon on the morning. Having been to the Blu Lagoon, the Secret Lagoon was much more relaxing. The tomato greenhouse and the sites were excellent.”
Blue Lagoon entry with Premium or Comfort plus optional shared or private transfers from Reykjavik for a warm, mineral spa reset.
“There are two parts to this tour experience: what from when you enter the facility until you leave, and what happens when you are traveling to and from the facility. The experience inside is wonderful. The lagoon itself is expansive, so even when there are a lot of visitors you can have a generous amount of personal space. The waters are just the right temperature. The locker room facilities are well managed and comfortable. The lockers themselves are secure. Traveling to and from the facility, however, can be challenging, as a recent lava flow has required two changes of buses each way and a long, cold walk of nearly a…”
Private transfer between Keflavík and Reykjavík with meet-and-greet, flight monitoring, clean cars, and optional round-trip. About 45 minutes.
“This is a private ride service. While I am guessing there are less expensive methods, this worked out great for us! We landed late and passport control took longer than expected, but our driver waited for us, which was a great service. Our ride back to the airport was as expected and communication was great. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
Private transfer to Sky Lagoon in Reykjavik plus hotel pickup, towel, and the Sky Ritual at geothermal pools with sauna and ocean views.
“Better overall experience than the Blue Lagoon. If you are short on time, we would recommend going to the Sky Lagoon instead of the Blue Lagoon. The Sky Lagoon is easier to get to, less crowded and generally less expensive.”
KEF to Reykjavik private transfer with hotel pickup, flight tracking, bottled water, and a smooth 45-minute ride.
“Friendly driver and good communications. Vehicle was clean. Driver gave us tips on what to do, where to go eat”
Private door-to-door ride from Reykjavík to Keflavík Airport with a professional driver, flat per-person fare, and voucher pickup.
“Transfer was on time. Vehicle clean and comfortable. We would use them again in our travels. Thanks.”
Private 2-day Jökulsárlón lagoon and Falljökull glacier hike from Reykjavik with hotel stay, breakfast, and transfers for up to two.
“Amazing experience! 11/10 recommend. It’s very productive and you get the most bang for your buck. The guesthouse is very nice and we were lucky to see a bit of the northern lights. The glacier hike was amazing! So many great photos and memories made. Our guide has such good humour and informed us about the sights in a way that was rasy to remember and digest. :)”
Private Silfra snorkel in Iceland’s crystal-clear tectonic fissure with dry or wetsuits, underwater photos, and hot chocolate.
“Dory was fantastic! So much fun. She was very professional and friendly. The snorkeling was beautiful and an incredible experience”
A 3-hour private Reykjavik food walk with lamb hot dogs, harbor soup, weekend flea-market bites, and Hakarl at Dass near Hallgrímskirkja.
“Our guide, Magness, shared the history of Iceland with us as we experience a sampling of traditional Icelandic food at each stop. Highly recommend this tour.”
Private KEF to Reykjavik transfer with flight tracking, meet-and-greet pickup, climate-controlled comfort, and CO2 offsetting.
“Great experience. Super easy and the driver was very nice. He was there waiting for us even though our flight landed about an hour earlier than expected. Definitely recommend.”
Private 2-hour Reykjavík walk with hotel pickup, Harpa and City Hall sights, optional Hallgrímskirkja, and guide stories that save time.
“Thomas was an amazing guide! We loved the tour - best way to get an overview of the history of Iceland and the main attractions! Highly highly recommend it!”
