Testimonials

From Ann

Torfi,

Last Thursday my boyfriend and I went on the Over & Under trip with Ingo and I wanted to let you know that we had an absolutely amazing time. Seeing the lava fields in Iceland was unreal, and crawling through the lava tube was such a unique experience. We are already planning our next trip to Iceland.

You should know that Ingo was a fantastic guide. He was very friendly and knew so much about the land, including some unforgettable stories and fables. He even brought us hot chocolate! After our trip he drove us around Rekjavik for a few minutes to show us his favorite restaurants. We went to some of his recommendations and they were wonderful. He went above and beyond and we were so grateful to him. Please tell him thank you from both of us!

Winter Golden Circle Super Jeep Day Tour with Snorkeling

Combo Trip: Driver Guided Super Jeep Safari, Sightseeing the Golden Circle & Snorkeling in Silfra fissure in Þingvellir National Park. Day Tour Available Directly from Reykjavík City.

Trip difficulty 3 out of 5 possible. Rated: Easy


We take our course east from Reykjavík along the tabletop mountains of the Esja and down to Lake Thingvallavatn. Here we stop to visit the National Park Thingvellir where you will see one of only two tectonic rift valleys in the worlds, created as the continental plates of America and Europe slowly drift apart. Þingvellir is also the only UNESCO‘s cultural world-heritage site in Iceland and it was here that the Vikings held their parliament and passed out judgments. We will walk down through Almannagjá canyon and to the Silfra fissure in the heart of the park. Here you will get to experience the clearest waters in the world on our famous Into The Blue snorkeling trip. The underwater visibility of the lava field stretches into the distance, on good day more then 100 meters! You will also be snorkeling with America on one side and Europe on the other, this is with out a doubt one of the most unique and refreshing trips Iceland has to offer.

 

After our snorkeling adventure we will dine on a packed lunch before heading along gravel tracks toward the world-renowned geothermal area around the Geysir hot spring. At Geysir we will see a variety of geothermal pools and Strokkur, the erupting hot spring, surely one of the highlights of any visit to Iceland. From here we continue onwards to Gullfoss waterfall where we walk down to the cascades for a closer view of the 32 meter high “golden” waterfall.

 

From Gullfoss we will blast through the 1000 rivers mountain track on our super jeep, crossing the river several times. We will race through the lava fields of the dormant volcanoes and get an up close and personal feel for the Icelandic nature. Finally we drive over the Hellisheiði mountain seeing the new geothermal power plant before reaching Reykjavík again.

 

This trip offers an amazing ride through the landscapes and natural forces that have shaped and continue to shape Iceland. The ultimate super-jeep combo trip from Reykjavik!.
