Combine a classic Golden Circle tour with snowmobiling on Langjokull Glacier on this action-packed experience from Reykjavik. This 10-hour day trip is designed for travelers who want to tick off major Iceland bucket-list moments and make the most of a single, well-planned day in Iceland.
Pairing the Golden Circle with snowmobiling on Langjokull lets you experience two sides of Iceland in one day. You’ll get to explore the country's iconic sights, then switch gears and ride across a glacier for a real adrenaline boost. It’s the perfect balance of classic sightseeing and hands-on adventure, without having to choose one over the other.
Your day begins with pickup in Reykjavik, where your guide meets you. As you drive out, urban streets give way to open landscapes, volcanic ground, and wide skies.
The day runs smoothly thanks to super jeep transport and a small-group setup, which keeps the pace comfortable and the experience personal. All snowmobiling gear is included, and an experienced guide leads the way from start to finish, so you can focus on the landscapes, the ride, and making the most of your time in Iceland.
The first stop is Thingvellir National Park. This historic site is where Iceland’s parliament was founded over a thousand years ago. It’s also where you can see the gap between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, slowly pulling apart.
You can walk through a landscape that is both important and powerful, shaped by forces deep beneath your feet.
Next, you'll visit the Geysir Geothermal Area, where hot steam rises from the ground, and Strokkur Geyser erupts every few minutes. Watching boiling water shoot high into the air is thrilling and unpredictable, making this stop exciting every time.
After Geysir, next to explore is the Gullfoss Waterfall. Here, glacial water crashes down in two stages into a deep canyon.
The sound, the spray, and the scale make it one of Iceland’s most impressive waterfalls. You can walk along paths to different viewpoints, though in winter, some closer areas may be closed for safety.
If time and conditions allow, your driver-guide may include a few extra stops along the way. These could be quiet viewpoints or lesser-known locations that add a personal touch to your day.
Then comes the adventure highlight: snowmobiling on Langjokull Glacier. You arrive at the glacier base and gear up with warm suits, helmets, and clear instructions. After a safety briefing, you'll mount your snowmobile and follow your guide across the wide, snowy glacier.
The ride is fast, fun, and incredibly scenic. Open space will surround you with the thrill of moving across ice that is hundreds of meters thick.
This Langjokull snowmobile tour is guided and beginner-friendly, making it exciting but safe. If you wish to skip driving a snowmobile on your own, your driver can help you with taking photos out on the glacier while the others adventure.
After your glacier adventure, you can relax on the drive back to Reykjavik, looking back on a day packed with highlights, contrasts, and unforgettable moments.
Save your spot on this Golden Circle snowmobiling tour and go beyond sightseeing, combining Iceland’s most famous landmarks with a real glacier adventure in one smooth, well-organized day. Check availability now by choosing a date.
