Traveo’s Small-Group Tours offer a variety of insightful and entertaining excursions.
We offer both winter and summer tours, some with activities such as glacier hiking or northern lights hunting included.
Small-Group Tours allow you to sit back and relax during your holiday in Iceland. There is no need to worry about road conditions or where to eat, what to see, and how long you’ll stay at each location. We will take care of all the details.
Your itinerary has been crafted by travel experts with years of experience in the industry. Your guide is a professional local who will show you both the most popular spots as well as a few hidden gems. And your accommodation will be booked at comfortable hotels or guesthouses before you arrive.
Small-Group Tours provide you with a chance to meet others, while still allowing you to step away after the tour is over. They are a great way to meet people, learn from a local guide, and go to places you, perhaps, wouldn’t go on your own.
Larger group tours tend to be more impersonal and rush you through some of the more beautiful locations. Traveo’s Small-Group Tours will have no more than 17 other people, ensuring that you will get plenty of time at gorgeous attractions such as Geysir Geothermal Area or Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon.
Included in a Small-Group Tour is:
Some Small-Group Tours have various activities included, such as a glacier hike or a visit to the Blue Lagoon. This will be listed in the “Included” section of each tour when applicable.
Winter Small-Group Tours offer its participants the chance to see the Northern Lights each night. If your tour guide spots them on the way to your accommodation in the evening, they will find an excellent spot to stop so you can watch them dance around in the sky.
Furthermore, most accommodations in the countryside offer their guest a Northern Lights wake-up call. This means that if the hotel staff spots the Auroras, they will call you and wake you up (if you so wish).
In the summer, however, you will be privy to the Midnight Sun. With more light, longer days, and clearer roads, guides on Summer Small-Group Tours can often offer their guests the option of visiting one extra attraction in the evening before retiring to their accommodation.
Aside from included activities, all Small-Group Tours offer a choice of additional tours you can add to your holiday. These include snorkelling in Silfra Fissure, snowmobiling on a glacier, or riding the Icelandic horse.
Yes, it is possible to add extra days/nights in Reykjavík before or after the tour. Adding an additional person is also possible but will depend on availability.
With a Small-Group Guided Package, you’ll get to see the beautiful Icelandic nature accompanied by a professional driver and guide. You won’t have to do any driving, and you’ll get insider information about the country and culture. The tour is in a small group, meaning that you will have a longer time at each destination, and spend less time waiting around for your fellow travellers. With a Self-Drive Package, you will have your own vehicle and serve as your own guide.
On a Small-Group tour, you will travel around Iceland with no more than 17 other people in a minibus. With a Privately Guided Package, however, you will go on a tour with a personal driver and guide. You will be in a smaller vehicle and will share the experience exclusively with your party.
Group sizes are maximum 18 passengers and are conducted in minibuses with about 19 seats.
Depending on availability, it is possible to change the date of your package for a service fee of 5,000 ISK for each day that needs to be altered.
Yes! When booking your package, you will have the option to customise the days of your tour by adding an activity such as glacier hiking, horse riding or whale watching. If you don’t see the activity that you want, just contact us, and we will see what we can do.
No. All our small group packages are composed of multiple tours. Some are day tours, and some are multi-day tours. The same provider will operate not all excursions. So please make sure to read over the voucher we provide you to see who the service provider is. The service provider is the company that will pick you up. You will also find the pick-up time on your voucher as well as information about the pick-up location.
Pick-ups can sometimes be late. Often it is due to weather or traffic. If, however, they are going to be very late, the service provider will contact you and let you know their status. That is why it is important that you provide us with the correct contact information when booking. If, however, you miss the pick-up, try to contact the tour provider first, that way, you can hopefully reach the driver directly before they’re too far away. If that doesn’t work, then contact us. We will do everything in our power to try to get you on the tour, but there is no guarantee of this to happen. This is why it is essential you are at your pick-up location on time or even a little early.
No. However, all of our small group packages include a transfer from the airport to Reykjavík. At Keflavík Airport, you will board a bus which will be waiting for you outside the airport. Your guide will pick you up in Reykjavík the next day. Please read your voucher carefully for more information.

EXCELLENT Based on 128 reviews Posted on ram88doc16. March, 2025.Verified Excellent company at a great price We planned a 10-day trip to Iceland. After comparing 5 different companies I chose Traveo as they offered the best option at the best price. Jonathan made all of our arrangements and answered all of my questions. I found that Traveo contracts with Troll Expeditions for the 8-day tour we did. Jonathan purchased our bus transfer tickets to and from the airport; made our hotel reservations in Reykjavik; provided sightseeing recommendations in Reykjavik; and provided a list of recommended restaurants. Additionally he checked with me at the end of the trip to make sure everything went well. I highly recommend this excellent company.Posted on FrancoiseC18714723. February, 2025.Verified West-North route Enchanting journey that kept all its promises. Jonathan organized our trip superbly and met our expectations. Our guide, Tristan, was perfect: he gave us many explanations about our journey, about Iceland, its training, its history, the way of life, ...My satisfaction is really great, thank you againPosted on zippss22. February, 2025.Verified 5-star service from Traveo, would highly recommend We are 2 females, travelling to Iceland for the first time in February 2025. Jonathan from Traveo helped us to plan and book our entire trip of 11 nights, and we could not recommend Jonathan and Traveo highly enough! Traveo does not operate any of the actual tours, but rather, helps to put together and book your itinerary with other operators. Our entire trip was put together very efficiently, in line with our expectations, and was well-planned. Having our trip put together by Traveo really helped reduce time and stress spent planning. Jonathan remained in regular communication and was super responsive throughout the entire planning process, and (more importantly) throughout our entire trip. This was very much appreciated as some unexpected things that cropped up during our trip that required response at short notice. We were really impressed at the speed and quality of Jonathan's responses. It was truly a level of dedicated service that we usually only see in 5-star luxury service providers. This was a great experience and I would not hesitate to recommend Traveo's service to anyone.Posted on Carlos C20. February, 2025.Verified Excellent Company, totally recommended, you can trust them, Jonathan helped us in everything We planned all our trip with Traveo, we got a metting with Jonathan and he organized all the trip for us, with the best options an very good prices, you can trust him and the company, we did a international transfer to paid for the trip and we got to Iceland and everything was as we planned it. Also we did some changes during the trip and he helped us to do it with no problem. You can trust them so you can enjoy and get to best experience in Iceland according to your possibilities. They uses an app to organize everything and it's of amazing help. I would definitely travel with them again.Posted on Wander0396646493817. February, 2025.Verified Awesome itinerary, amazing guides, relaxing, and gorgeous Where do I even begin?! This was mine and my husband's 15 year anniversary trip (and finally a honeymoon, AND first actual vacation), and it couldn't have been more perfect. From the easy planning and communication with Omar, to the amazing private guides we had (Birgir and Gisli), to the amazing places we visited...it was nothing short of a dream.Our guide Birgir (aka Biggi) was with us most of the time (minus the few days in the north), and he was awesome! He was so informative and knowledgeable about the places we were visiting and the history of Iceland and it's culture. He also made adjustments to the itinerary to miss crowds, show us off-the-beaten-path locations, and make things as smooth and relaxing as possible. He was kind, personable, and funny. My husband - who takes awhile to warm up to people - also really enjoyed Biggi (as well as our other guide Gisli).Gisli was also fabulous. He, too, was extremely knowledgeable (his family is one of the first families of Iceland) and utilized our time well to get in the most, while not rushing, for our two days in the north. He showed us several cool local places and even got us a private tour of the aviation museum (since it's technically closed in the winter). He was very personable and funny also.I want to also acknowledge how safe Biggi and Gisli made me feel. I had a stroke years ago and can be a little off balance still sometimes. They both were conscious of this and protective of me: Biggi held my arm and hand several times to help steady me throughout the trip (especially at Dryholaey when the wind almost knocked me over). Gisli also held my hand through the icy path to Godafoss waterfall so I wouldn't fall (he even got us some crampons to borrow for the cave so we could safely visit). They both went above and beyond and I'm certain they made our time even more enjoyable.Everything from the superb hotels picked and booked for us that were centrally located to the places we visited, the easy planning with Omar, the amazing private guides, and the stunning scenery of Iceland was more than welcome could have asked for. It was absolutely perfect and I don't think this trip can ever be topped. Thanks again Traveo!Posted on Erika A24. December, 2024.Verified Such a great experience This trip was the first time we’ve ever used a travel company to book everything (losing, transportation, tours) and we couldn’t have been more pleased with our experience with Traveo!! We started with Omar who made all of our plans, met with us via a Skype call to work through details and responded to countless emails as we prepared to visit Iceland! When he decided to pursue a new job opportunity, we were nervous that things would get messed up but Jonathan stepped in seamlessly to help us with last minute things. Our trip was well timed, spaced out, customized to our needs and made it so we could see everything we wanted in our short time in the land of fire and ice! We would 1000% recommend Traveo to anyone who is looking for help planning the trip of a lifetime!!Posted on geoffrey s11. December, 2024.Verified Excellent itinerary and service from Traveo - would use them again The Traveo team were outstanding. My wife and I had an amazing 5 nights in Iceland, visiting Reykjavik and the South Coast. Traveo helped us plan the itinerary, booking our van, hotels, suggesting our sightseeing routes and booking lunch and dinner reservations when necessary. While we were in Iceland, Traveo kept us abreast of potential changes due to weather and suggestions of changes due to the weather. Traveo was also available if we had questions during our trip, and helped us along the way. Iceland was a truly memorable trip and I would highly recommend Traveo for your Iceland travel, whether it be 2 days or 20 days!Posted on Cesar M4. December, 2024.Verified Personalized Service My trip to Iceland coordinated by Traveo was a positive experience. From the moment I started to book my trip, Jonathan was helpful and attentive to every detail. The itinerary they crafted was perfectly balanced, allowing us to see and do as much as we could in eight days.The Traveo app was an absolute game-changer. It provided easy access to my itinerary, maps, and recommendations, making it easy to navigate the country. We were able to make changes on the fly and get updates, which was convenient.I highly recommend Traveo to anyone planning a trip to Iceland.Posted on Jane L29. November, 2024.Verified Iceland We worked with Jonathan at Traveo and he crafted a trip that was incredibly well thought out such that we were able to see so much even in the shortened daylight hours. I simply told him what we wanted to do (glacier hike, snow mobiling on a glacier, ice cave hiking, the Blue Lagoon, snorkeling in glacier water, and the usual sites of the Golden Circle). We were traveling with my parents, who are in their 70s so he also had to craft a plan for them when my husband and I were doing activities they couldn't do. It was an amazing trip, every day filled with wonderful adventures and sites. The hotels we stayed at were amazingly lovely. I usually plan our vacations but I couldn't have done this one- we simply saw and did too much and I wouldn't have known how to efficiciently put all the driving and sites in an order in a way it would have been possible. Iceland is magical. I will remember this trip forever. My dad is 76 and it was a place he wanted to travel to. He loved it.Thank you Jonathan for making this possible.Posted on Viola van Baardwijk1. November, 2024.Verified Perfectly arranged! Where the ‘standard’ trips never quite met my wishes, Jonathan turned my wishes into a tailor-made trip. Everything was arranged, from rental cars to itineraries, descriptions and hotel stays. Even during my trip easily and quickly accessible for questions.I was able to enjoy all the beauty that Iceland has to offer to the fullest. An unforgettable journey!
