About Iceland
Iceland is a refreshingly unconventional travel destination. The Icelandic nature is unspoilt, exotic and mystical with its spouting geysers, active volcanoes, tumbling waterfalls, towering mountains, vast lava plains and magical lakes. Iceland’s fjords, glaciers and highland plains present visitors with some of the most beautiful and enchanting places they will ever see, as well as a rare feeling of utter tranquillity.

For travelers on a quest for action, Iceland’s pristine nature offers great potential for outdoor activities such as snowmobiling, horse riding, cave exploring, hiking, swimming, skiing, river rafting, kayaking and mountain safaris on modified four-wheel drives, to name but a few. Iceland supports a surprisingly diverse Nordic flora and fauna and is an ideal place for ornithology enthusiasts, while also offering some of the world’s best whale watching destinations.

About Reykjavik
Reykjavík sometimes feels like a cosmopolitan capital and a tiny seaside village - all wrapped up in one. But Reykjavík has the best of both worlds; the qualities of a modern, forward-looking society complemented by a close connection to Iceland‚s beautiful and unspoilt nature.

Reykjavík’s legendary nightlife is bolstered by plentiful cultural and social happenings in addition to an abundance of first-class restaurants. The size of Reykjavik city centre is also limited enough to allow for easy navigation by foot. Reykjavík has been described as a young and daring city that is characterized by strong contrasts. Conveniently small, clean and safe, it is more or less free from the major problems that haunt many other capitals. Big city events are frequent, the winter lights festival finished recently with thousands of participants and more tourist at this time of the year than we are used to.

Itinerary

This adventurous 4X4 super-jeep tour will take you to two of Iceland’s most picturesque waterfalls and on to the Mýrdalsjökull glacier, where you can go on an optional snowmobile trip. The tour will start by taking you to the Hveragerði “greenhouse community”, where you can see how Icelanders grow their fruit and vegetables, making them self-sufficient in the growth of bananas, among other things. We will then go to the Seljalandsfoss waterfall; at 40 metres high, its main attraction, besides the scenery, is the fact that there is a pathway leading behind the waterfall and out the other side, giving visitors a chance to view the falls from within. From Seljalandsfoss, we will take you to the Mýrdalsjökull glacier, home to the sub-glacial volcano Katla which has erupted roughly twice per century since settlement. You will have on option to go snowmobiling on the glacier, go on a 4x4 quad bike tour on the Sólheimasandur beach or explore the icy scenery of Mýrdalsjökull with your guide on the 4X4 super-jeep. The last stop before heading back to Reykjavik is the picture-perfect Skógafoss waterfall. The falls are 60 metres high and reportedly hide a treasure belonging to a settler in the area, Þrasi. According to legend, the last attempt to find and fetch the treasure chest resulted in one of its rings coming off, and it is now used as a door-ring on Skógar church.
