Your tour starts when you are picked up from your accommodation in Hvolsvollur or Reykjavik upon request. You’ll travel to the Bru base camp in Hvolsvollur, where you’ll meet your expert English-speaking guide and the other guests on the tour.
When ready, you’ll depart and head for the Highlands. When you get there, your experienced guide will give you a thorough briefing and provide you with all the safety equipment you need, including a helmet.
This tour suits seasoned drivers and beginners who haven’t driven a buggy before. Your guide will give you complete instructions on driving, and then it’s time to set off on your adventure.
The Icelandic Highlands are a vast, rugged wilderness known for their volcanic landscapes, glacier-fed rivers, and remote hiking trails. This uninhabited region covers much of Iceland’s interior and is only accessible by 4x4 vehicles.
Popular destinations include Landmannalaugar, with its colorful rhyolite mountains. The Highlands are also dotted with black sand deserts, steaming geothermal areas, and towering waterfalls.
Riding a buggy through the Icelandic Highlands is an adventure like no other. You’ll speed across vast black sand plains, splash through glacier-fed rivers, and navigate rugged mountain trails in an off-road vehicle built for extreme conditions.
As you conquer the challenging terrain, you’ll feel the thrill of off-roading while surrounded by some of Iceland’s most dramatic scenery.
For one night, you’ll stay in a cozy, geothermally-heated hut at a Highland camp. Your guide will prepare a traditional BBQ dinner while you relax. Refuel and chat with the other guests before you get an early night before another exciting day.
On the second day of the tour, you’ll enjoy an exciting buggy ride through the Fjallaback Nature Reserve. Fjallabak Nature Reserve, located in Iceland’s southern Highlands, is known for its rugged volcanic terrain, geothermal activity, and striking rhyolite mountains.
Covering around 47,000 hectares, the reserve includes the popular hiking destination of Landmannalaugar, where natural hot springs and colorful hills attract visitors. The area features lava fields, glacial rivers, and remote trails that require 4x4 access.
See the unique geology of the diverse landscapes and admire the pristine beauty as you enjoy the thrills of a buggy ride. Your guide knows all the hidden gems and will take you to lesser-known places for a truly unique experience.
At the end of the tour, you’ll return to the base camp before your guide takes you back to Hvolsvollur or Reykjavik if you requested a drop-off service.
Please note that all participants must hold a valid driver’s license to drive a buggy. Each buggy accommodates one or two people, so those traveling solo or preferring to drive alone must pay an additional fee for a single-rider buggy.
