Two Day Super-Jeep Winter Adventure Tour to Landmannalaugar in Iceland's Central Highlands

You and your family or group travels across the deserted highlands of the southern part of Iceland in the style and comfort of a Nature Explorer modified Super-Jeep on huge tires - which is why we can get into the most isolated and deserted places in Iceland. This is also what makes this tour a unique experience.

Our tour starts by driving east out of Reykjavik through the countryside to the edge of the Icelandic highlands by the foothills of Iceland's most famous volcano, Hekla.  The landscape is shaped by centuries of volcanic activity, the most recent from February 2000. Many different eruptions and geothermal heat has made all kinds of strange lava formations and colors. We drive through the snowy barren wilderness, across mountain deserts and unbridged rivers  and do our photo stops at our own leisure.

When we arrive in Landmannalaugar we can do some light hiking and sightseeing, including crater lakes, hot springs and steamvents, lava fields and strangely colored mountains. Drinks in the natural geothermal pool where you enjoy a relaxing soak while your driverguide prepares a traditional Icelandic dinner.

If the Northern Lights are visibile, taking a midnight bath underneath the auroras is almost mandatory. In any case, sitting in a natural hot pool in the middle of nowhere on a dark winter night, surounded by nothing but wilderness and glaciers, is magical and mind blowing experience that will stay with you forever.

Our driverguide will prepare a 3 course dinner for you, a traditional Icelandic feast; cured or smoked salmon for starter, grilled lamb for main course and a desert. Breakfast the next day is of course also included together with lunch and snacks for the day.

The next day our adventure continues and there are still many sights to see. We can either spend the first half of the day in Landmannalaugar - there is simply so much to see, enjoy and experience - or we can take short detours on the way back and visit Iceland's second highest waterfall, Háifoss and / or Hjálparfoss waterfall before taking you back to Reykjavik in time for dinner.

This is our favorite tour - and we do it also privately just for ourselves - because it's a great authentic Icelandic adventure in fantastic landscape, combined with the relaxation of great food and a unique soak in the geothermal pool.
