Please contact me if you don't see availability for your date/time or you wish for a different location tour like South Coast, Snæfellsness, or even multi-day trips.
I will pick you up from your location or the Keflavik airport if requested and take you to a "different planet" - spectacular out this world places located about 1 hour from Reykjavik, far from crowds and in a small group - maximum 5 people in my super comfy off-road 4x4.
In the area there are old craters, fissures, and bubbling, geothermal mud pools. By the sea, there are also many places with amazing rock formations, the oldest lighthouse in Iceland and even some ghosts ;)
While we look around, I will take pictures of you in the beautiful scenery and entertain you with some interesting facts about the places, teach you a bit about the Icelandic language, and share a bit of my personal experience and perspective on Iceland. The retouched pictures (about 15) will be sent to you in about 72h.
