Search for wild reindeer in East Iceland on a guided super jeep tour through one of the most remote regions of the country. This tour suits nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts who want to explore the landscapes of Iceland and see reindeer up close.
Your tour begins in Breiddalsvik, a quiet fishing village, where you meet your guide.
You then ride in a super jeep over the rugged terrain of the region. With its oversized tires, the super jeep can cross icy trails and deep snowdrifts.
This tour takes you deep into one of the less-visited regions of Iceland. East Iceland is the only place in the country where reindeer roam free. They aren't herded or domesticated, which makes spotting them a highlight for wildlife photographers and animal lovers.
Your guide uses recent reindeer sightings, tips from local farmers, and years of experience in the area to plan the route. The route changes daily to give you the best chance of seeing reindeer.
Throughout the drive, you stop at viewpoints across East Iceland, with snow-covered mountains, wide valleys, and lakes in every direction, and plenty of chances for photos away from the crowds.
Traveling in a small group gives you more flexibility and time with your guide. You learn about the history and folklore of East Iceland and how its environment shapes the people and animals that live there.
For the best chance of seeing reindeer, visit in winter or spring, when the animals come down from the highlands to forage in the lower valleys.
Even if you don't see reindeer, the tour shows you a quieter, wilder side of Iceland that few travelers experience.
