We founded Gateway to Iceland on the belief that a tour should feel personal, not corporate. We focus on small, semi-private groups and genuine flexibility, so you get the most out of your day.
We’ve proudly held the Viator Badge of Excellence for eleven years in a row, reflecting continuous, top-tier traveller satisfaction. In 2024 Lonely Planet recommended us as one of Iceland’s best operators.
Unlike the large bus operators, we use comfortable minibuses that keep us flexible throughout the day, and give you direct access to your guide for questions and stories. You never feel like just another number in a crowd.
Modern Mercedes Sprinters, chosen for comfort and reliability.
Guided by Gummi’s expertise and supported by Valla’s warmth — you’re always in caring hands.

The spirit of the company and one of the warmest people you will ever meet. Valla works tirelessly behind the scenes to keep a pleasant, family atmosphere for guests and team alike.
Always happy to advise on your trip and solve any problem. Talking to Jóhanna feels less like talking to an agent and more like chatting with a friend. Her favourite place in Iceland: the Westman Islands.
