The private 4x4 excursion from Reykjavik is an excellent option for visiting Iceland without worrying about organisation! Set off on a tailor-made excursion, to which your professional guide will add a personal touch to ensure a truly individual experience. Thanks to the private dimension of the tour, you'll also enjoy greater flexibility and privacy, as you and your loved ones will be the only participants. Depending on the size of your group, you'll set off by car or 4x4 bus from Reykjavik to explore Iceland's sublime roads and Landmannalaugar!
Landmannalaugar is a region shaped by a fascinating mix of geological elements, from vast lava fields to the vibrant hues of multi-coloured rhyolite mountains. The mountains change from pink to brown and green, with interjections of yellow, blue, purple and black. Discovering Landmannalaugar by 4x4 is not the most common activity, so you'll enjoy an experience off the beaten track in an unspoilt and remote location.
Your private 4x4 tour begins in Reykjavík, where you will meet your guide and board the vehicle. On the way, you'll pass through picturesque Icelandic farmland and a desert-like volcanic landscape. Thanks to the 4x4 vehicle, you can take rugged roads and cross rivers! You'll stop at a crater lake, Ljótipollur, which was formed in 1477 and whose water is now cobalt blue. The private excursion to Landmannalaugar continues to Lake Frostastaðavatn, a lake accessible only by 4x4 vehicle and offering a peaceful setting in the middle of nature.
Arriving at Landmannalaugar, you will have the opportunity to explore for 2 to 3 hours, embarking on a beautiful hike. After an hour or so of hiking, you can relax and unwind in a natural hot spring. You can also choose to explore the area independently, admiring the surroundings.
On the way back, you'll take the Dómadalur road, which winds through lava fields and between mountains. Along the way, you'll cross many rivers and admire some sublime waterfalls. Afterwards, you'll return to Reykjavik with great memories of an unforgettable day on a 4x4 in Iceland!
