Iceland's Magnifcent West Super-Jeep Day Tour: Lava Tube, Hot Spring, Waterfalls & Glacier 

This Nature Explorer adventure day tour starts by driving to Thingvellir where the oldest parliament in world was founded and you can see the tectonic plates drift apart. After Thingvellir we cross the rough mountain road of Kaldidalur (Cold Valley) were we enjoy great variety in barren landscape before reaching Langjokull, Iceland´s second largest glacier. After a short cruise on the white plains of the glacier on the Super-Jeep we continue to one of Iceland´s largest and most magnificent lava caves, Surtshellir which was inhabited by outlaws. We can provide you with headlights so you have the option of caving and explore the strange lava formations. We continue down to Borgarfjordur to see Hraunfossar (Lava Waterfalls) where the river flows from underneath the lava field and cascades down into river. Just a few meters away there´s another great waterfall, Barnafoss. We pass through the historical site of Reykholt before visiting Iceland´s most powerful geothermal spring, Deildartunguhver. Return to Reykjavik via scenic Hvalfjordur (Whale Fjord).

Join us on an great geological and historical exploration through all the variety Iceland´s nature has to offer in one magnifcent day tour – and do it in style and comfort of our Super Jeeps.
During winter this route may be changed because of difficult conditions at Kaldidalur so we may need to skip Thingvellir and go through Borgarnes instead - but there will still be plenty of off-roading and remote wilderness.

 

Our driver Haukur gave us a couple of extra stops to see some amazing sights, which was much appreciated by the photographers in the jeep! The detours and offroad experiences were also incredible and greatly appreciated. I have already recommended Nature Explorer to my friends and we will be booking with you next year! In my eyes there is no other company who could provide the level of service I got whilst on the two tours. – Hannah Spiteri, Solihull, UK

The Magnifcent West tour probably offers the greatest variety in landscape of all tours and therefore sometimes referred to as "Iceland in a nutshell".  It´s a great tour to get a full Icelandic experience in one fun filled day. We are looking forward to share the adventure with you.
