I’m Junaid Najam. From 2022 to 2025 I worked remotely as part of the team of an Iceland-based travel company — and for two of those years I ran their Google Ads specifically for private tours sold by minivan, Mercedes Sprinter and coach-van. Now I offer that same specialty to a small number of Icelandic operators.
A shared day tour sells a seat. A private tour sells the whole vehicle — and that changes the maths completely. Private buyers search with different words, compare fewer operators, and book at per-group prices where a handful of extra bookings a month pays for the entire channel.
| What you sell | Typical price per booking* | What ads need to deliver |
|---|---|---|
| Private day tour (Golden Circle, South Coast) | ISK 120,000–220,000 / €900–1,400 | 2–4 extra bookings a month already cover ad spend and management |
| Private Northern Lights | ISK 75,000–120,000 | High-intent seasonal searches, decided in days, not months |
| Multi-day private / group minibus | ISK 250,000+ | One booking can equal a month of shared-tour seats |
*Illustrative market ranges for private tours in Iceland, based on publicly listed operator prices — not a promise of results. Campaigns built for shared-tour traffic waste this budget; campaigns built for private intent protect it.
One remote partner for the digital work a small operator never has time for — with AI tools speeding up the routine parts, and a human who knows Icelandic tourism doing the thinking.
Campaigns structured around private intent: private Golden Circle, private South Coast, private Northern Lights, airport and cruise private groups. Keyword discipline, negative lists, and landing pages that speak to private buyers.
Private-tour pages that answer what private guests actually ask — vehicle, group size, flexibility, pickup, per-group price — and turn ad clicks into enquiries instead of bounces.
Steady Instagram/Facebook content from your real tours: guest photos, seasonal pushes, new products, offers — planned monthly, not in a last-minute scramble.
Fast, personal replies to enquiries and Google/TripAdvisor reviews, pre-tour emails, and follow-ups — the back-office work that decides whether a private lead books or drifts away.
No long contract, no big agency. Three simple steps:
I look at how your private tours show up on Google today — which searches you are missing and where budget would leak. You get the findings whether we work together or not.
One campaign, for one of your highest-value private tours, run for an agreed period and judged on one thing: enquiries. Small, fixed, measurable.
If the trial earns its keep, we continue on a fixed monthly retainer — ads, pages, social and enquiries handled, with a short monthly report in plain English.

From 2022 to 2025 I worked remotely with an Iceland-based travel company as part of their team — website work, social media, ads and sales-related support. For two years my focus was their Google Ads for private tours by minivan, Sprinter and larger coach-vans. I learned how Icelandic tourism breathes: the Northern Lights season, the summer peak, weather-driven changes, and how much personal communication a private booking needs before a guest commits.
Today I combine that experience with modern AI tools — faster content, faster replies, better-organised campaigns — while keeping the personal, local voice your guests expect. On a call, I am happy to walk you through exactly what I did in that role.
Pakistan (PKT). Iceland working hours (09:00–17:00 GMT) are 14:00–22:00 my time — a full working-day overlap, not a handover gap. I worked to Icelandic hours for three years.
My specialty is private tours, but the same ads and back-office support applies to small-group operators. If your main product is shared seats on big coaches, I am probably not your best fit.
A fixed monthly retainer, agreed before we start, after the paid trial defines the scope. No percentage-of-spend games, no setup fee surprises. Ad spend itself always stays in your own Google Ads account, under your control.
On a call I will walk you through the actual work I did for the Icelandic operator — the campaigns, the private-tour keywords, the pages — in detail. Client names stay confidential, as yours would.
A 20-minute call and access to your website and (if you have one) your Google Ads account for the free visibility check. Nothing else.
