Iceland,
through the eyes of
a local guide.
I’m Bijo, founder of Iceland by Guide. I started working in Icelandic tourism in 2008 and later became a licensed guide. Since then, I’ve helped thousands of travellers experience Iceland privately, calmly and with the freedom to adapt the journey as we go.
