Description

Explore the beautiful scenery of Iceland on an off-roading buggy tour, then enjoy a delicious burger at a local food market. Those eager to participate in an exciting activity during their trip to Iceland should book this tour now.

Your excursion starts at the buggy base camp in Hveradalir, around 21 miles (33 kilometers) southeast of Reykjavik. You'll meet your guide and the rest of the group before a short safety briefing to ensure you're equipped for the adventure ahead. You'll also receive all the safety gear needed for your buggy ride, including insulated overalls, a helmet, and a balaclava face mask to keep you warm. Once you're kitted up, it'll be time for your experience to start.

A buggy is an all-terrain vehicle designed for off-road driving. It's a two or four-seater, open-top vehicle that can navigate rugged terrain, streams, and mud. Buggies are a fantastic way to explore the Icelandic wilderness and experience the thrill of off-roading. They allow you to reach remote locations inaccessible to other modes of transport.

Each buggy can take up to four people at a time, so you can decide whether to ride alone or share with friends and family. You must have an international driving license to drive a buggy, so children (17 or under) can only take part as passengers.

You'll drive away from the base camp near the Hveradalir geothermal area. Barren, volcanic terrain, geothermal springs, geysers, and steaming vents characterize the wilderness around Hveradalir. This landscape is perfect for buggies as it has all the elements for a thrilling ride. You'll ride over challenging paths that take you past stunning natural scenery. During your ride, you'll get excellent views of the neighboring mountains. 

After your buggy ride, you'll probably have worked up an appetite. You'll head into Hveragerdi village, where you'll visit the Grodurhusid food market. The market serves a wide range of freshly made street food inspired by global flavors. It's a popular destination for food lovers in the area, and you'll visit the Yuzu stand to enjoy a tasty burger. There are beef, chicken, and vegan options available.

While you eat, you can swap stories about the day's adventures with the friends you've made during the trip. 

Don't miss this exciting experience exploring the Icelandic countryside on an adrenaline-fueled buggy tour. Check availability now by choosing a date.
