Hello and welcome to Reykjavik! My name is Sergei, and I'd be happy to show you around Iceland. Let's say you're planning a visit to Iceland and a quick tour of the country. In this case, we can arrange a private tour from Reykjavik to discover the most interesting sights along popular routes. Please let me know if you have any additional ideas or special requests for your trip, and I'll be happy to organize a tour. Since 2015, I've been a pleasant, practical, and responsible guide, running my own tour company. I'm passionate about Icelandic nature and can tell you about the Icelandic sagas or explain the geological structure of our island. I've traveled extensively, spent several years as a sailor, worked as a maintenance engineer, and visited many countries. As an outdoor enthusiast, I enjoy traveling both domestically and internationally. I have extensive experience as a driver-guide using suitable transportation. The vehicles used for our tours have all the necessary permits from the Icelandic Transport Authority. Let me show you Iceland through the eyes of a local and a visitor who has lived in this beautiful country for 25 years! Welcome aboard!

Once again, Sergei has been fabulous. His knowledge of the areas is amazing and we’ve gotten so much more out of the trip as a result. He’s been very flexible to our mobility needs and makes sure we don’t miss anything. And, he knows all the best places for photos. He’s the best.

Iceland proved to be an extraordinary place with an exceptional diversity of nature. A Bucket list placed. Sergei helped make it extraordinary. He was an exceptional guide. Very attentive to our needs, passed on a lot of history, guided us to many great places in our Gold Circle tour and Glacier Lagoon tour, and beyond the tours, helped us with many aspects of our trip like restaurants, transportation, etc. And he is a good person. We felt he became part of our group as we went along and was sorry to leave him. If you want a great trip to Iceland, no one is better than Sergei!

Friendly talkative guide with a very comfortable Mercedes Van who was courteous n flexible- the tour itself was fantastic n time management was great - a lot of experiences n sights were thrown in - the crystal cave was an add on experience by a separate local tour operator but that an extremely challenging glacier hiking experience so less than 12 years n more than 60 need to be extra earned from participating. Get ready to be overwhelmed to a cacaphony of sights n weather experiences n unpredictability
