Itinerary

Choose your ride for a day through Iceland’s legendary Golden Circle. Go off the beaten path in a super jeep, built for an adventurous, small-group experience with a fun edge on rugged terrain. Or, if you prefer a classic journey, join a small group in a minibus for an easygoing drive.

Along the way, you’ll get up close to Iceland’s big hitters—Gullfoss waterfall, erupting geysers, and the historic grounds of Thingvellir National Park. We finish with something unforgettable: a snowmobile ride across Langjökull Glacier. This is the kind of day that sticks with you.

People walking in Thingvellir national park

We start at Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site packed with Icelandic history and dramatic landscapes. This is where Iceland’s first parliament, the Althing, was founded in 930 AD—a site with roots as deep as the volcanic rock beneath it. Þingvellir is more than history, though. Picture mossy fields, waterfalls tumbling into clear pools, and a place where you can walk between tectonic plates. It’s one of the few spots on the planet where you can feel the Earth’s crust literally pulling apart beneath your feet.

Geysir Strokkur aerial view in winter

The adventure heats up as we reach the Geysir geothermal area, where the Earth practically breathes beneath your feet. Clouds of steam swirl and the ground simmers and hisses around you, creating an atmosphere that feels straight out of another world. Every few minutes, the ground rumbles, and then—boom!—a powerful jet of boiling water shoots high into the sky. Watching Strokkur’s eruption is a sight you won’t forget anytime soon.

Rainbow over Gullfoss waterfall in Iceland

Continuing on through the untamed roads of Iceland’s interior, we arrive at the majestic Gullfoss waterfall. This is the perfect place to stop for lunch at the Gullfoss Cafe. Enjoy a snack while taking in the sheer power of the waterfall, which crashes down over two separate tiers before plummeting into a deep canyon. If the sun is shining, you can capture brilliant photos of rainbows shimmering over the falls.

Our last stop brings us to Langjökull, Iceland’s second-largest glacier, where the adventure shifts into high gear. After a scenic drive to the glacier camp, your guide suits you up and preps you for an unforgettable snowmobile ride. Out on the open ice, you’ll follow your guide across Langjökull’s expansive, frozen landscape, with its sweeping views and pure glacier air. The sheer size of the glacier and the thrill of speeding over its icy surface make for an experience like no other. As we wrap up the day with the journey back to Reykjavik, you’ll carry the unforgettable sights and energy of Langjökull with you—a perfect finale to an incredible day.

  • The tour price is based on two people sharing one snowmobile. If you are a solo traveler or prefer to drive alone, you can upgrade to a solo snowmobile for an additional 10.000 ISK per person. You will also need to choose a solo option for an odd number of bookings.

  • To operate a snowmobile in Iceland, drivers must have a valid driver’s license and be at least 17 years old.

  • If you wish to ride a solo snowmobile but do not have a valid driver's license, you can book an extra guide to operate your snowmobile for an additional 60.000 ISK. Please contact our sales desk for further information and booking.

Pickup starts at 8:30 a.m. and will take place at your selected location in Reykjavik. Please note that the process can take up to 30 minutes.
