Golden Circle & Glacier Snowmobiling

Feel the freedom on top of a glacier with a one hour snowmobile ride on Langjökull glacier and take the adventure of a lifetime on the popular Golden Circle tour.

This tour combines the hugely popular Golden Circle tour with the adventure of a lifetime - a one hour snowmobile ride on Langjökull glacier, Iceland's second largest glacier!

First stop is at Þingvellir National Park, a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site which is known for its exceptional beauty and historical importance.

After exploring a selection of the park's most picturesque sites, the next stop is a high-temperature geothermal area known as Geysir which boasts numerous springs spouting hot water.

From there you will drive to Langjökull for the highlight of the itinerary - an exhilarating 1-hour snowmobile ride on the stunning, vast white snowcap.

Finally, on the way back to Reykjavík the tour makes a quick stop at the stunning Gullfoss waterfall.

  • You will be required to present a printed copy of your voucher at the time of tour departure.
  • Price given is per person but is based on two passengers sharing a snowmobile. If there are an odd number of guests, one person will have to ride alone and pay a 'sole rider' fee of 6900 ISK locally.

  • Minimum age for this tour is 6 years. Children 5 years and younger are not permitted on this tour. Only one child is permitted per adult on this tour.
  • You will spend 2-3 hours outside on this tour in quite remote regions of Iceland, therefore conditions can be more extreme than the city. In the winter months, temperatures can drop to -15 degrees (especially factoring in the wind chill), so you will need to dress accordingly. If you have ski gear we would recommend you wear this. As a minimum though, do ensure you pack waterproof clothes. It is better to have layers with you that you can leave in the jeep, rather than not have them at all.
  • Protective clothing and safety equipment for the snowmobile ride are provided.
  • Pick-up from hotels and guesthouses starts 30 minutes before the tour departure time. You will be advised specific times upon reconfirmation locally.
  • Returning from your tour, you will be dropped off at the pick-up point you were collected from or at the closest possible point.
