Embark on an unforgettable Icelandic adventure starting from Reykjavík at Lambhagavegur 13. Drive along gravel tracks through Hafravatn, Skammidalur, and Mosfellsdalur, passing rivers, basalt columns, and scenic farmland before reaching Þingvellir. Explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site beside Iceland’s largest lake, home to the historic Alþingi parliament established in 930 AD. Witness the rift between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates and take in breathtaking panoramic views.
Next, traverse the highlands along Eyfirðingaleið, surrounded by glaciers Vestari Hagafellsjökull and Eystri Hagafellsjökull. Stop at Jarlhettur and the Hvítá River to admire the iconic Gullfoss waterfall, where Hvítá plunges into a dramatic two-step canyon, creating rainbows in sunny weather. Continue through forested paths to Haukadalur, home to Geysir and Strokkur. Watch Strokkur erupt every few minutes, sending boiling water up to 35 meters into the air, while learning about the geothermal wonders of the area.
The route then winds through the lower highlands to Gjábakki farm before returning to Reykjavík. Our 4×4 buggies are fully automatic, road-legal, and feature roll cages, safety belts, and double A-arm suspension. Choose a single ride for just yourself or a shared ride for up to four people per buggy. This exciting tour combines Icelandic history, natural beauty, and thrilling off-road adventure in one epic day.
