We only have 1.5 days in Iceland, so want to make the most of our time. Golden Circle tour is a must for us. Does anyone have a recommendation on which tour company to use? We really don't like the thought of riding a bus, has anyone used a jeep tour?
Thanks for the help,

I did a jeep tour that I booked through Iceland Air, so I'm not sure the actual company. From what I have read and heard though, most of the companies are basically the same.
Golden Circle will be great- also, I LOVED the Blue Lagoon, which you will see mentioned all over this page on Iceland topics.

I think a lot of the tours are pretty similar, although the Golden Circle tour I did was arranged through the hostel I stayed at and was in a fairly small van, which was nice. I can't remember the company name, unfortunately! The tour is definitely a good idea though.
In Reykjavik, another scenic place I liked was Videy Island, good for some hiking. You do have to take a ferry out to it. Also, make sure to eat a hot dog with the works, especially if it's from Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur!
