Testimonials

From Bridgett

I just returned from Iceland.  For our last full day, my mom and I went on the Golden Circle Super Jeep Safari.  There were so many cool parts of our trip to Iceland that it was hard to pick a favorite until our Golden Circle safari.  The day surpassed my expectations and easily became my favorite part of the vacation! 

 

Earlier on our trip, we had gone on a tour with a different company.  I wish we had instead booked a second tour with Arctic Adventures – by far a better experience and a real adventure.  Palli was an awesome guide!!  He was on time to pick us up, gave us plenty of time at all of the stops, shared interesting information about each stop and about Iceland in general. 

 

The sights of the Golden Circle are incredible themselves, but the little/more personal things about the day made all the difference….I will never forget driving through the icy river (again and again), getting stuck and pulled out of the snow, and seeing the Icelandic horses up close and personal.   I feel like we truly had a personalized tour through the Golden Circle. 

 

This was a great way for my mom and I to end our trip to Iceland.  Thank you so much to Palli for the awesome memories!!  I highly recommend Arctic Adventures to anyone traveling to Iceland!

1000 Rivers Road - Mountain Biking Day Trip From Reykjavík

Mountain biking adventure tour on the 1000 River Road and Reykjadalur Valley in the Hengill Area.
 
Trip difficulty 3 out of 5 possible. Rated: Challenging

We start this amazing mountain bike trip from the geothermal power plant Hellisheiðarvirkjun and head up the mountain towards the 1000 rivers road. We will pass several geothermal power holes and see the intricate technology Iceland uses to heat its houses in an environmentally friendly manner. The 1000 rivers road is properly named since we will cross the river many times as we pedal towards the famous Reykjadalur (Steam valley). Down there hot water rushes down the slopes of the mountain range and creates the ideal place to relax in an untouched natural hot stream. The valley also has an amazing abundance of geothermal springs and you will witness every thing from small gurgling melting pots to vibrant super heated pools of water. After strolling along these wonders of nature we ride all the way back down into the town of Hveragerði.
