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!

Northern Lights - Evening super-jeep and activity trip

Evening super jeep tour including lava caving, lobster dinner and northern lights chase to a convenient location.

Trip difficulty 2 out of 5 possible. Rated: Easy.

Your pick up will arrive at your hotel in the shape of an enormous Super-jeep with an expert guide at the wheel. The search for the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) is on! We start by exploring the hidden world in and under the lava field located in the Blue Mountains only 25 minutes drive from Reykjavik. Walking down into the lava cave and discovering the marvels that volcanic activity has created in the past is a trip that everyone can undertake and enjoy. On your underworld adventure you will see the magical rock formations left behind in the last volcanic eruption and in winter the cave is likely to be filled with glistening icicles of all shapes and sizes, a sight not soon forgotten.

After our underground adventure we head on to Rauda Husid restaurant in Eyrarbakki village on the south coast where a two course dinner (350 gr. lobster and dessert) is waiting for us. Rauda husid is one of Iceland’s most renowned seafood restaurants especially famous for its lobster dinner, located 60 km from Reykjavik surrounded by the pitch-black Icelandic winter night. From there our hunt continues.

The Auroras can only be seen far away from the city lights and from Eyrarbakki we will not have to travel far until the mountains provide the shadows we need. On cloudless and clear winter evenings, with luck on our side, we may be able to spot this beautiful and elusive natural phenomenon. Vivid and bright, the dancing northern lights in the Arctic skies are a sight to remember.

Please note: Seeing the Northern Lights is highly dependent on weather conditions and we reserve the right to cancel if the circumstances are not in your favor.
