Private Hiking Tour: Vikings and Waterfalls Tour in Reykjavik
(2) Reviews
About
This tour is a seasonal tour. The reason for it is that the roads that allow access to most of the sites are closed or impassable in the winter time.
Even during the summer months, some sites require special vehicle to get to them. And we have just the kind of jeep you need.
We will also take advantage of this vehicle to drive on the backroads that connect those sites together. It allows us to cruise away from the crowds, and will give you a strong adventure feeling.
Finally, the main perk about this tour is to not only focus on nature, but also gives you an insight of Viking history.
