"It's a long day but it doesn't feel it - just the right amount of time at each place." See review
"You have to climb stairs and then walk over which eats up time so you will probably get back to the bus late." See review
"You can also stay on the bus, which drives around the park to pick up those electing to take the walk." See review

Nice small group with great guide

Our tour guide Jakob. He talked about what we were seeing, going to see and gave all sorts stories and knew everything you’d want to know about Iceland. He really was great! At the stops he’d get out with us and explain what was at the sights. Only 6 in tour made it nice also
