Each of the Scandinavian countries has unique tours and cruises, and these can be found in the various Program pages. One country has more activities available, however, and that country is Iceland.
Iceland Travel,
Iceland tours and
Iceland adventure and activity tours can easily
be found in the Program pages for Iceland, and specifically in
Activities/Hunting we feature a great selection of Iceland Riding tours and
the
Icelandic horse tours.
For persons coming to Iceland, escorted tours and adventure travel is at hand. The primary activity, which is not available in the other Scandinavian countries, is horseback riding. There are a number of riding activities available. Though it is not necessary to be an expert rider, it is important to be in good physical condition.
Areas covered by these various horse-riding activities include a hot springs, a lake, and a geothermal field,
lava fields and beaches. One of the trails, Northern Exposure - Wonders of
Lake Mývatn, was nominated to be among the top 10 in the entire world.
Not only are there organized riding tours, but two of the activities available are for a round up and a horse drive.
The tours are in their 26th anniversary year! We are proud to follow
this tradition on all the highland tours and some of the tours in the
countryside as well.
Iceland is green and Greenland has ice! Check out our
Greenland tours and our
adventure tours.
One of the most popular Iceland adventure is riding the
Icelandic Horse. We offer day trips or longer riding tours in the
Highlands and the Countryside! Other Iceland travel activities available for the adventurous sportsperson include
whale watching, glacier tours by super truck and 4wheel drive cars,
snowmobiles on glaciers, volcano areas, white water rafting (taking about 2 hours to maneuver through rapids and gorges),
Blue Lagoon tours, bird watching, an afternoon's worth of mountain biking through a forested area, kayaking or snorkeling in the geothermal area of Iceland's largest lake, and hiking to a glacier.
No better country than Iceland to relax in one of the many outdoor pools
with geothermal, healing waters. Perhaps you like to pamper yourself
with fabulous
Spa treatments, massages, facials, hot lava, saunas and steam baths.
Visit the Blue Lagoon, the 5star Laugar Spa or the new Myvatn Nature Bath.
Spa packages can be tailor made to fit your health needs and special
requirements for various treatment options.
Those who enjoy these rigorous activities but also prefer some creature comforts will be pleased to know that nights are spent in at least mountain cabins with bathrooms and comfortable beds, regardless of what the day's activity might have been.
Self drive tours to enjoy the freedom and flexibility to explore different
places at your own leisurely pace. Our self-drive tours include detailed
itineraries, maps of Iceland and maps with pre-booked accommodation marked
in for each day.
