4WD Adventure: Hit the trails on a 4WD adventure to explore Iceland’s rugged wilderness. Navigate through volcanic landscapes, glaciers, and hidden trails, experiencing the raw beauty of the Icelandic backcountry.
Icelandic Horseback Riding: Consider a peaceful horseback ride on the iconic Icelandic horses. Known for their unique gait and friendly nature, these horses offer a gentle way to explore the stunning landscapes, providing a different perspective on Iceland’s natural wonders.
Ice Caving: Hike into Iceland’s glaciers’ mesmerizing blue ice caves. These seasonal wonders offer a surreal and enchanting experience.
Dunebuggy: Rent a dune-buggy and explore the Golden Circle Tour minus the “tour bus” crowd.

Hot Springs: Hike into the backcountry to find a natural hot spring. Skip the Blue Lagoon unless it’s something you HAVE to check off your bucket list. (It’s over-commercialized, in my honest opinion!)
