How to Plan a Successful Private Tour in Iceland?

Most tourists to Iceland are content with packaged tours. The most popular packaged tours take visitors on the Golden Circle circuit, to the south cost, to Jokulsarlon, to Landmannalaugar, to Reykjanes Peninsula, to the Snaefellsner peninsular and Hekla, to mention a few of the most visited attractions in Iceland.

For tourists who desire more and wish to have a more meaningful experience of their Iceland visit, a custom private tour is a way to go. Private tours by discover.is are meant for people with specific tastes and goals for their Iceland vacation. There is a good enough reason to opt for custom private tours Iceland tour operator like discover.is offers.  The majority of standard tour packages are one day packages. For instance, the Golden Circle tour takes tourists on a 300 kilometer round journey from Reykjavik for a duration of 9 hours. With so many destinations covered, tour operators are likely to rush through the schedule and people often complain that they are not allowed to stop and admire the scenery, take photographs or take small treks to explore the countryside. On the whole, though packaged tours do get the tourists an overall experience, they are not quite satisfactory.

Privately arranged tours spread over a few days are the way to go if one wishes to experience Iceland to the full. Tour operator like discover.is will arrange a super jeep, which is a multi-terrain vehicle with extra-large tires for travel on any type of terrain. A standard tour takes visitors to the most popular destinations but Iceland has hidden gems of which tour guides are aware. It is worth arranging a private tour of Iceland and fixes with the guides to take tourists to off the track destinations that can be impressively charming. The guide doubles as a friendly, expert chauffeur and it is like driving in one’s own private vehicle. One can stop at any place for as long as one likes. One can pick select destinations. The guide will always be considerate of the needs of the guest and will even stop whenever requested at any place along the route and even branch off to any other place not previously decided. If a family decides to go trekking, snowmobiling or skiing or river rafting, it is all easily arranged even if it is not on the schedule. There is total freedom in private arranged custom multi-day tours of Iceland.

A typical multi-day private tour of Iceland would include the Golden Circle route with options to skip any place or to stay at any place for a longer time or to undertake any activity. The multi day tour would include Thorsmork in the South coast, waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss and the black sand beach at Reynisfjara. The charm of a personalized Iceland tour is that if one decides to go horses riding on the black sand beach, there are no time restrictions. One can even stay overnight in which case the tour operator arranges overnight accommodation according to the preference of the guests. Private tours offer so much more value and one can take back precious memories of a happy country.
