Itinerary

• Reykjavik (Pass by)

  Get picked up from your Reykjavík hotel, ready for an 12-hour private tour of southwest Iceland and a snowmobile ride on a glacier. It's just a 10-minute drive to Gullfoss, the 'Queen' of Icelandic waterfalls, which plunges 105 feet (32 meters) into a gaping canyon. Next, head 20 minutes to Faxi waterfall, a little less known and smaller. For lunch (own expense) stop at Friðheimar, a restaurant in a greenhouse, to eat among the tomato vines. After lunch, head to Kerið, a volcanic crater, before the drive back to your Reykjavík hotel.

  Gullfoss

  Snowmobiling on a Glacier: At Gullfoss you will change onto our monster truck and it will then take you up to Langjökull glacier. Driving through Iceland, a relatively new land compared to most of the world’s terrain is quite an adventure. Looking out the window, at the sparsely settled countryside with a few signs of commercial exploits is a rare sight for many visitors. Once you arrive at the glaciers base camp, you will receive the appropriate equipment, such as helmets, overalls, overshoes, gloves and a hat. Our friendly and fun-loving guides will give you instructions on how to operate the snowmobile and go over the safety procedures before you ride off into the winter wonderland. Our snowmobile are double-riders and children are welcome to ride as passengers as long as they have reached the age of six.
