Our tours with Julien made our trip. We did the private Northern Lights tour, the 8 hour private Golden Circe tour and he dropped us to the Blue Lagoon and took us to some other sights en route to the airport. Julien took us to some amazing places and included extra spots not found on generic tours. We learnt so much about Iceland and can’t wait to return and explore this beautiful country further. Julien is a wonderful guide and we would highly recommend him!
