ATV and buggy tours in Iceland allow you to explore the country's stunning natural landscapes in an exciting way. Participants ride on rugged, four-wheeled ATVs or two-seater buggies, often through off-road terrains such as lava fields, mountains, and remote wilderness areas.
Some popular destinations for these tours include the Reykjanes Peninsula, the Golden Circle, and the volcanic areas near Reykjavik. Both tours offer a unique and fun way to explore Iceland's diverse landscapes.
These tours are guided, and experienced guides lead you through the terrain while providing interesting insights into the geology, history, and culture of Iceland.
The primary difference between ATVs and buggy tours in Iceland is the type of vehicle used and the riding experience they provide.
ATV tours typically use four-wheeled all-terrain vehicles, which are often open and exposed, similar to a quad bike. Buggy tours use two-seater, off-road buggies that are fully enclosed with a roll cage. These buggies are similar to dune buggies or small off-road vehicles.
Both ATV and buggy tours take you to places that are less accessible by larger vehicles, offering exclusive experiences in the Icelandic wilderness. Whether you're an individual, couple, family, or a group of friends, these tours suit those looking for an adrenaline-pumping adventure.

I’ve seen ATVs driving on beaches in Iceland — isn’t off-road driving illegal?
Yes, off-road driving is illegal. On your ATV adventure in Iceland, you only ride where the tour operator has permission to drive. This can, for example, be on a beach or on private land where the owner has granted permission.
How can I minimize my environmental impact during the tour?
Stick to marked trails to avoid damaging fragile ecosystems. Choose environmentally conscious operators, and follow the guides’ instructions so you travel responsibly.
What equipment is included? What should I bring for my ATV or buggy tour?
For your ATV or buggy adventure in Iceland, you’ll get a warm insulated overall, a helmet, and gloves. Wear warm clothing and good shoes.
What’s best for my trip in Iceland — an ATV or a buggy?
It depends on what you want from your ATV adventure in Iceland. A buggy is typically a bit larger and more enclosed, while an ATV is smaller and more exposed to wind and weather. On an ATV you lean forward over the handlebars, while in a buggy you sit more like in a car.
Can I go on an ATV or buggy tour to the DC plane wreck on Iceland’s South Coast?
Yes, there are several ATV tours that start in Reykjavik. This excellent 2-hour ATV tour includes pickup in Reykjavik and takes you into the surrounding mountain landscapes, with plenty of time for both adventure and photo stops.
Can I combine ATV or buggy tours with other activities or sightseeing in Iceland?
Yes, many tour operators offer packages where ATV or buggy tours are combined with other activities such as hiking, visits to natural attractions, or even a visit to geothermal baths for a well-rounded Icelandic adventure.
For example, this combined ATV and whale-watching tour from Reykjavik and this Golden Circle and ATV tour combination take your experience to the next level.
Should I book ATV or buggy tours in advance?
It’s a good idea to book in advance, especially during Iceland’s high season, to make sure you get a spot. Popular tours can sell out quickly.
How do I get to the meeting point for ATV and buggy tours?
Some tours include pickup and drop-off from places like Reykjavik, while others require you to meet at the starting location. Check the tour details for transport options and driving directions.
How long do ATV and buggy tours typically last?
Tours vary in duration, but most last 1–3 hours. This includes the safety briefing, gearing up, and the ride itself. Longer tours may combine the experience with, for example, sightseeing or exploring glacier areas.
How many people are in a group?
Group size depends on the operator, but it’s usually small to ensure a safe and more personal experience. There are also private tours for those who want a more exclusive adventure, such as this private 8-hour monster truck and buggy tour to the Blue Mountains.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Tours typically run in rain or light snow, as ATVs are built for harsh conditions. However, strong storms or dangerous weather can lead to cancellations, in which case operators offer a refund or the option to reschedule. If your tour is canceled, you’ll be notified by the operator.
