Buggy tour - Wow what a great excursion! Started off with a warm welcome, then got set up with all the essential gear and explanation on how the buggy operates. The thrill of driving through town and then the trails in an open air buggy was so much fun in March weather. But then we finally reached the black sand beaches and what a sight! Heavy waves crashing in the distance along with black sand as far as the eye could see. We were the only ones on the beach that day and we drove for almost an hour before our guide stopped for photos and shared Icelandic treats and hot chocolate / coffee with us. Very accommodating guide and friendly demeanor throughout made it comfortable and memorable.

Fun!! A "Must Do" :) - Buggies were top of the line. Owner was waiting and ready to go when we arrive. He had all of the necessary equipment to keep us protected and warm as it was raining and windy. It was a beautiful ride and gave us another perspective of the incredible landscape of Iceland that we could have not seen otherwise. We made several stops along the way to learn more about the area and the history. We also had hot chocolate and a delicious Icelandic treat along the shore. We highly recommend you add this experience to your Iceland itinerary--you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely incredible - even in the winter months!! - This was by far one of the coolest experiences in Iceland that I’ve had (3rd trip). I highly recommend making this a part of your adventure to Iceland. Seeing the sunset at the black sand beach was nothing short of incredible!

A Truly amazing experience! - Absolutely one of the best tours we've had in all of our travels. This was like having a friend who is local, show you all the secret spots they take their family and friends...Jonas was truly an excellent tour guide. He went out of his way to take us to all the best sites including a hidden waterfall accessible only by atv, historical turf houses, through steams, meadows and grasslands, all the while telling of the history and culture at every stop. The highlight of the trip was a stop and short hike to a cliffside cave where we sat down to a lunch that he had prepared for us of what other than icelandic grilled pylsa with Pylsusinnep and remoulade (hot dogs). What an amazing experience!
