BEGIN IN REYKJAVÍK – EARN YOUR WAY TO END IN LUSH ICELANDIC PARADISE
Our team at Safari Quads has been relentless in selecting the best full day route (6-7 hours) for our guests allowing us to take you even further into our natural playground. This trip comes in response to our guest’s enthusiasm for longer trips that travel a greater distance reaching outside of the expected tourism territory but limited to one day. The Reykjadalur Full Day Buggy Tour is a perfect and unique opportunity to see as much raw nature as possible.
CONQUER HENGILL MOUNTAIN RANGE, EXPLORE REYKJADALUR HOT SPRING
You start driving your buggy on a lonely trail in the backlands of Reykjavik. Following the trail, you will reach Hengill mountain range and Hellisheiðarvirkjun, the power plant for Reykjavik. You follow the trail to a place called “Þúsund vatna leiðir” – “The valley of one thousand rivers”. As the name says, a lot of splashing and fun are waiting for you. Your next stop will be close to Reykjadalur Hot Spring. You will enjoy a stunning view over mountains, valleys and steam coming out everywhere. After a short hike, you reach the bathing area where you can take a relaxing swim in the hot spring. The trail then leads you into the Blue Mountains with the historical Vífilsfell mountain.
FAR FROM CIVILIZATION, FEEL AND SEE THE POWER OF THE VOLCANIC ISLAND
The day will begin with a pickup in your hotel lobby by your cunning and occasionally humourous Safari Quads Guide. You’ll like him, we promise! We’ll drive you to our base camp located just 15 minutes outside of Reykjavík to begin gearing up and receive your safety briefing for the coming day of adventure! We’ll waste no time by beginning the tour by driving all the way to Hengill mountain range. After a fun drive through a huge riverbank, you will reach your lunch destination. From there your guide takes you to Reykjadalur hot spring to take a relaxing bath.
