What you'll see

We start the day off by picking you up from your hotel in Reykjavík in one of our super trucks. Our super trucks are equipped with complimentary wifi and of course, a comprehensive guided tour by the driver. We never put more than ten people in each truck so the tour feels more personal and so each person gets more space in the truck.

Leaving Reykjavik, we drive through the Geysir hote spring area and head straight towards Langjökull Glacier to enjoy an hour long snowmobiling experience. After gearing up in warm winter overalls, hats, gloves and helmets, your guide will brief you on how to safely ride the snowmobiles before we set off on our adventure. Experience the thrill of zipping across this spectacular glacial landscape. We will make a ten minute stop during the snowmobiling tour if people want to switch drivers, enjoy the view or take photos.

After your exciting snowmobiling experience, we will visit one of our favorite restaurants in South Iceland for lunch.

Finally, we will end our day with a visit to the Secret lagoon. Enjoy a soak in this natural thermal outdoor spring. Admission tickets are included in the tour and you can hire towels and bathing suits at the baths if you wish (own expense). Once you're feeling fully revitalized, we will board the super truck for the journey back to Reykjavik.
