Guðmundur Óli Pálmason

Born in Reykjavík, Iceland in 1978, from a young age I was already travelling all over Iceland with my parents.
After a short stint as a driver guide on modified suv's in 2004, I pursued a career as a touring musician in Europe and North America for a decade, coming back to the field of driver guide in 2015 and working full time as such ever since.
in 2020 I co-founded Location Scouting Iceland, a company that specializes in finding locations and providing location service for all kinds of productions. So far we have worked on tv shows, editorial photo shoots, fashion shoots, commercials etc.. As of 2022 we are expending our services to take customers on privatized photography tours.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"I believe an all immersive travelling experience includes having a taste local culinary and cultural experiences.
I specialize in places off the beaten path. I find that the most enjoyable travel experiences are usually had out in "nowhere", as opposed to the tourist places you'll find on the maps. This is especially true in summer when access to the country's back roads is easier and daylight lasts 24/7. I find it more enjoyable, especially as a photographer, to travel at night, when nobody's around and the land is locked in perpetual twilight under the midnight sun.
"

How did you get involved in travel?

"I started travelling with my parents around Iceland at an early age and I guess that's where I picked up the travelling bug. In my early 20's I stared travelling around Iceland on my own and with friends. My biggest interest was always finding out what was at the end of the unmarked gravel road. What unexplored treasures would I find that weren't on the map.
In 2004 I worked for one summer as a driver guide on a modified Land Rover Defender for the first time. That's when I started to gain experience in offroad driving on glaciers and mountains. I came back to that job in early 2015 and have been working as a driver guide full time ever since. "

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"Travelling around the vast Icelandic highlands, the biggest untouched wilderness in Europe, under the midnight sun is something I'd list as my absolutely favorite pastime, with clients or alone."

Best ever, we were able to drive around the entire Island and see all that we wanted. We had a great mix of tour guided adventures and hikes, exploring on our own. We really enjoyed the geo-thermal baths, and we ended up booking a few of our own along the way to relax each night. Gumi, was super organized and everything was perfectly planned. We stayed a nice places and the food suggestions were great. Loved our time and will forever cherish it.

Gummi was super knowledgeable about both typical and off the beaten path excursions and planned a great itinerary for us based on our preferences. He was very responsive to our needs - before and during travel.

Iceland was an outsiders/travelers dream. And working with Kim Kim allowed us to quickly plan a custom, unforgettable vacation! I love how they can accommodate a mix of low, mid and high end budgets and preferences and the local knowledge of the travel coordinators is a huge plus. Their travel coordinators are intimately familiar with the locations you are visiting.

We chose to use KimKim's services to simplify all the bookings and planning of our 10-day motorhome trip. We did the complete tour of the country, the Golden Circle.

Guðmundur Óli (Gummi) was very efficient in preparing the perfect itinerary for these 10 days. He showed us the most beautiful and interesting places in this magnificent country of fire and ice.

All the reservations for the campsites were respected. Note that some campsites do not accept reservations but it was easy for us to find a site with electricity each evening.

The only downside of this trip was that of the motorhome rental company, Europcar. We had poor service and they delivered us an uncleaned vehicle. Fortunately, the manager, who heard about this problem, compensated us for the inconvenience.

Throughout the trip, Gummi was a great support to us and was always available. I highly recommend the services of KimKim and Gummi.

Thank you for the kind review.
Oh boy did the motorhome rental company test our nerves. I know it doesn't change anything for you, but rest assured we will not be doing business with them again.
I am happy they reached some kind of agreement with you in the end though, but they are not up to the level of professional standards we want to uphold.

Overall, one of our top trips, we can’t say enough positive things about the planning, the guide or the trip.

It was my husband's first time out of the country so I wanted to make sure that our trip went as smooth as butter. I heard about Kimkim from my cousin who has used this site to plan a handful of international vacations, so I thought I would try it out as well. We had a wonderful experience working with our Kimkim agent, Gummi. He did a wonderful job taking our interests into consideration when choosing excursions and was extremely helpful when we were in country and worked on situating our camper van rental details. Iceland is full of amazing scenery, and many cool things to do. I highly recommend Gummi, especially for my detail oriented friends! He put together a day-by-day Google Map itinerary for us to follow; provided recommended time frames for each stop; recommended restaurants at each location; and answered ANY question I had. He was available during our stay in Iceland to help with anything we may have needed; and there were a few things we needed hahah :) He is very friendly and did an amazing job helping us make this experience one of a kind!

This was not our favorite lagoon. We had high hopes for this lagoon, but when we got to the lagoon (6pm) they were fully booked, and it was quite loud (people were everywhere). This lagoon is located near a large city that cruise ships dock at over night. The men's bathroom was loud, filled with drunken adults, and smelled like urine. The soap bottles were empty or filled with water to make the soap go further. My husband had the worst experience in the WC compared to the other lagoons we went to. The women's WC was also loud and slightly crowded, but seemed to be fairly clean. This was the last lagoon we attended and were hoping it would be more relaxing, but ended up being the quickest trip to a lagoon that we had.

This was a neat experience. We did get to see some whales and whale tails; we even saw some birds flying and floating near by! The staff members were really nice and informative. We were thankful to receive a waterproof suit for the duration of our excursion. The weather was a little rainy, but extremely choppy; the boat ride there and back was a little rough. My husband and I have been on boats before but nothing like this, and both got a little seasick with the boat rocking in the choppy waves of the bay.

This wasn't our favorite lagoon, but it was a nice one. The lobby/bar area is really pretty and modern. We liked that we could walk around the pool area and see the geothermal activity happening.

I brought my GoPro to take pictures, but when they put the mittens on with my wet suit I decided not to bring it. However, each guide takes their own GoPro with them to take pictures of the water, rock formations, and each attendee in their group. This was super nice and we had the pictures by the next day!

Thank you so much for the kind review Marley. There sure were a few hiccups with the camper van, but that's what I'm here for ☺️

I am sorey and surprised to read about your experience at the Forest Lagoon. I've had many clients go there and have been there a few times myself and have never had that kind of experience. But then again, the big cruisers haven't been in town when I've been there so I guess it's the cruise crowd, I'm not going to publicly state what I think of them most of the time.

We worked with Gummi who emailed and FaceTimed with us to really understand what our family of four wanted from our first vacation in this spectacular country. He NAILED it! My husband and I were traveling with twin 12 year old boys who couldn’t be more different. Gummi was able to squeeze in adventures that appealed to all of us, suggested whatever to see, where to eat and how much time to spend at each location of our itinerary. He was available during our vacation if a question popped up and was a pleasure to work with every step of the way. We have so many favorite spots but I’d say our top few were: our first stop after our flight at Sky Lagoon (we preferred Sky Lagoon over Blue Lagoon), our cliffside walk at Arnarstapi (we never would’ve known to do this without Gummi), our Katla Glacier Ice Cave Hike, and of course driving from spot to spot looking at the gorgeous scenery and hiking to waterfalls. I suspect we’ll use Kim Kim on another vacation and would absolutely request to work with Gummi again!

The Blue Lagoon is iconic and was super cool but if you can only visit one hot springs, I’d visit Sky Lagoon as it seems more natural and less touristy. (my preference) Having said that, I’m glad we did both. If you’re planning to visit both, do Blue Lagoon first then Sky Lagoon and maybe work in a visit to a hot springs off the beaten path. I’d say visiting the hot springs was a highlight and though the waterfalls of Iceland are spectacular, thee hot springs are sublime!
