Drive Iceland yourself.
Have a local guide in your pocket.
You plan your own Iceland trip and make your own bookings. When a question comes up on the road, you can message or call Bijo — a licensed Icelandic guide with 15 years of experience.
It is access to a real person who knows Iceland. Weather changes. Roads change. Plans change. When you are unsure what to do next, ask me.
What can you ask me?
The questions that matter in Iceland are often the ones that only appear once you are already on the road.
Weather changes
The forecast changed. Should you continue, wait, turn around or change today's route?
Road conditions
Unsure about a road, mountain pass, F-road or the conditions ahead? Ask before committing.
Route decisions
Two possible ways forward? I can help you choose based on conditions, time and what is actually worthwhile.
What should we see?
Have extra time or need a new stop? Ask what is worth seeing near where you are.
Plans changed
Bad weather, a closed road or a delayed start? I can help you rethink the next part of the journey.
Local knowledge
Restaurants, viewpoints, geothermal pools, quieter places and things you probably will not find by searching quickly.
Guide on Call is for independent travelers.

Guide on Call works because you are not talking to a chatbot, call centre or anonymous travel agent.
You are talking directly to a licensed Icelandic guide who has spent 15 years travelling Iceland with visitors and making the same kinds of decisions you may face on the road.
Guide on Call is not an emergency rescue service.
In any serious emergency in Iceland — accident, injury, becoming lost or immediate danger — stop the car if driving and call 112. Guide on Call is for local knowledge, judgment calls, route decisions and travel advice.
Explore Iceland independently.
You don't have to figure everything out alone.
Already have your route and bookings? Guide on Call gives you direct access to Bijo throughout your self-drive journey.
