My name is Haraldur G. I'm 59 years old and born and raised in Iceland. I'm a friendly and nature loving person and I live with my family in Garðabær, a town next to Reykjavík city. I have many years of experience in guiding tourists around our beautifully iceland, the land of fire and ice, and have a passion for showing travellers the Icelandic untouched Nature which is truly an amazing and fascinating. Experience Iceland with a local guide is the best way to get the most out of your visit and take back home with you the best memories. My customers can choose between two cars, highly modified luxury 4x4 superjeep, Dodge Ram, very comfortable for 1-4 passangers, and a Toyota Landcruiser 4x4 Luxury jeep, comfotable for 1-3 passanger. It is adventure to drive in this modified superjeeps, mainly into the highlands and up to the glaciers, going with a professional driver who knows his country and conditions very well, especially in the winter time when the weather can be unpredictable. I'm in the mountaineering and have been a member of the Icelandic Alpine Club and the Icelandic Mountain & Rescue teams in Iceland for many years, so I know the highlands and the glaciers very well. It is a privilege for me to be a part of Tours By Local and have the possibility to take you to the most significant places, such as the Golden Circle with the Natural Park, Waterfalls, Glaciers and Volcanoes, the Highlands and a lot more great places. I look forward to welcome you and make your Iceland trip unique and unforgettable and safe. Licensed Professional driver. - First aid course. - Fully licensed vehicle by the Icelandic Transport Authority. - Fully licensed Day Tours Provider by the Icelandic Tourist Board. - Member of the Icelandic Mountain & Rescue teams. - Member of the Icelandic Alpine club. - Culinary Master Chef. I do not have any restrictions.

Experince the South Coast of Iceland with all the Waterfalls, Glaciers, Volcanoes and Black Sand Beaches
Overview of your Reykjavik tour
The journey along the south coust with all the breathtaking waterfalls, and some that can be walked behind. Driving the Shouth Shore with all that nature power around, the majestic glaciers with their dramatic volcanoes which could erupt any time, and the North Atlandic Ocean on the other side, we drive as far as the Village with the short name Vík. It is always so fascinating the South Coast of this island of fire and ice, especially this great volcanic activity and rugged nature. I lived here in this area for 10 years, in next village of Vík, with this long name Kirkjubæjarklaustur, so I'm always proud of this area and by taking this tour with me, I wants my guests to experience it the same way I have always done, an unforgettable day.

Although this is a late rating I still have vivid and fond memories of our day. Perfect in every way.
Raul M.United States
Haraldur was professional, informative, yet kind and welcoming to his country. He took wonderful care of us throughout the day and modified the tour to meet our requests. Of course, the landscape of Iceland is magical and ethereal, but Haraldur made it even more special with how he handled the tour. We would definitely recommend him!!

Haraldur gave us a great tour. He was very friendly and helpful. We travelled in a comfortable SUV. He went with us to all the sites and offered a lot of information. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Haraldur. Highly recommended.

We had a great day with Haraldur on the south coast. He's knowledgeable, pleasant to tour with and easy to talk to. We were happy the hidden people let the sun shine for us! Beautiful waterfalls and of course scenery in general. Puffins were a bonus. Terrific guide!
