We take our course to the East of Reykjavík in our specially modified
Super-Defender to the Blue Mountains where our first adventure starts, lava
caving! Here we will reveal to you how Iceland was created and how it continues
to be formed today. Our adventure then continues as we make our way to the
majestic Gullfoss waterfall. On the way there we will go off-road and test the
capabilities of the super-jeep*. We will dine on traditional Icelandic meat
soup at the Gullfoss Café before rolling onwards to the world-famous Geysir hot
springs. Witnessing the superheated water explode from the ground is something
that no visitor to Iceland should miss. On our way from Geysir to the
Þingvellir National Park, where the European and American continental plates
have been drifting apart for thousands of years, we will go off-road again*.
This trip offers an amazing ride through the landscapes and natural forces that
have shaped and continue to shape Iceland. The ultimate super-jeep combo trip
from Reykjavik!
*Where, when and how much we will be able to go off-road depends entirely on
weather and snow conditions, in other words it depends on the Arctic winter!
