ATV tour - Had this trip booked during the storms in February. Unfortunately we never got to do the golden circle trip due to the storms but did get 2 hours on the ATV. Absolutely brilliant experience, whole family loved it. Made slightly more exciting by the high winds and sleet that started coming in at the start of the storms but we were in safe hands.
A big thank you to Bryndís who also helped us when our tours (booked through other companies) were cancelled due to inclement weather . Didn’t want to have travelled all the way to Iceland and not see anything. Bryndís was so helpful, giving advice to make sure we didn’t miss out.
Great company, great experience…definitely recommend.

Best thing about Iceland - Tony, Hanna and Kaktuz were amazing! I was with a family of 22 people of different ages and abilities. We all had a wonderful time. Very accommodating and so much fun. Loved every moment of it. A must do in Iceland.

A must do for anyone wanting a bit of adventure and some phenomenal views. - My partner booked this a surpise for me as part of my 30th Birthday trip to Iceland.
The tour and activity companies partner seamlessly to run a very slick operation, from pick up for the ATV mountain ride in the morning to drop off for the coach based tour of the island's greatest features and back again to your hotel.
The 9 hours flew by, starting with a dawn ride up into the mountains via a frozen lake and sporty, rugged tracks. The top speed recorded on the roads was 70kph and due to the waiver signed before leaving you were trusted to be responsible and sensible without being nannied so it was up to us how fast we went so long as we were a safe distance of 10m from the quad in front.
Our guide was also the pick up driver and he stopped at key locations so we could switch riders (we had a twin quad) and take in the sights as the sun rose.
I had the best time and would happily bring friends to join me on this thrilling activity on a future stay in Reykjavik.

Absolutely amazing experience with a great tour guide Leif was very informative about not only the quad bikes but the place we rode around too. This is a tour not to be missed we were dropped off at the grey line bus terminal for the afternoon golden circle tour which is another tour not to be missed.</p>
