By using our super jeeps, we can also add the extraordinary Langjökull glacier to your list of impressions. We start the day in Þingvellir, where the Parliament of Iceland was founded in 930 AD. There, you get a view from “the edge of America” over the Mid-Atlantic continental divide. Continuing, we pass the geothermal-heated Laugarvatn lake before arriving at the Great Geysir hot spring area, peppered with small and large boiling water springs. The most spectacular one, Strokkur, blasts boiling water up to 30m skywards, every 5 to 7 minutes. After some quality time at Geysir, a short drive takes us to Iceland’s most visited waterfall, Gullfoss, where glacier meltwater thunders in two stages into a 70 m-deep basalt canyon. We then maneuver a gravel track snaking up mountains towards Europe’s second-largest glacier, Langjökull. There, a snowmobile ride is optional if pre-booked. (dependent on weather, conditions, and time of year) In the afternoon, we descend again and traverse the South Iceland agricultural heartland on our way home to Reykjavik.

The tour was fun but difficult due to the limited daylight in January! Additionally, trying to figure out which bus to board was a nightmare. The tour guide Christina originally told us we were not on her tour bus and directed us away quite rudely. We had to go back again and check her list ourselves! We arrived at the first stop in thingvellir national park and it was pitch black. We didn't get to see anything as we arrived there quite early and only had a 30 minute stop. The rest of the golden circle tour was okay but I would highly recommend hiring a car and doing it yourself. Snowmobiling on the other hand was absolutely amazing! Super well organised and the views were insane. We had a good 1 hour on the snowmobile which I think was perfect. Anymore than that and my fingers would have dropped off! Overall I think the tour was great. Best option would be to drive golden circle and just join this experience for Snowmobiling if that's possible.

An experience to never forget! Despite the horrendous weather conditions our driver Marti got us to the base camp ready to get geared up for an unforgettable adventure! Climbing 900ft above sea level onto the glacier … snow blizzards & reduced visibility didn’t stop us from having the most thrilling adventure! An added bonus of some off roading in the 4x4 on the way back down due to our monster truck getting stuck in the snow! The most exciting adventurous day. And a massive well done to Marti on his phenomenal driving skills …. Icelandic weather is crazy!!

I really enjoyed this activity. In the beginning I thought it's too expensive but during the activity I felt it is worthy to do. Therefore all the staffs are very kind and helpful. I highly recommend snowmobile activity.

It was a great experience for all of us. Kind and friendly guides, which were well prepared and helpful. I highly recommend this tour. It was so fun and awesome.

The highlight of the tour was definitely the snowmobiling. I would do this every day if possible.
