Golden Circle Super Jeep & Langjökull snowmobile tour
Feel free to contact us
Description
Experience one of Iceland’s most popular adventure tours, combining the famous Golden Circle with an unforgettable snowmobile ride on Langjökull Glacier. This full-day tour from Reykjavik blends iconic sightseeing with real glacier action in Iceland’s highlands.
Your day begins with a Super Jeep journey from Reykjavik to Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where Iceland’s first parliament was founded and where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates meet.
From Þingvellir, the tour continues to the Geysir geothermal area, home to the powerful Strokkur hot spring, before visiting the iconic Gullfoss waterfall, one of Iceland’s most impressive natural landmarks.
After exploring the Golden Circle, the adventure shifts into higher gear as you travel by specially modified glacier vehicle towards Langjökull, Iceland’s second largest glacier. Once on the ice cap, you’ll gear up and head out on a one-hour guided snowmobile ride across vast, open glacier landscapes.
Langjökull is a natural ice cap and one of Iceland’s true glaciers, offering wide terrain and panoramic views of the Icelandic interior. The snowmobile ride is suitable for beginners, with full safety instructions and professional guides leading the way.
The tour operates year-round and runs most days, making it an easy and flexible addition to your Iceland itinerary. If you are traveling independently by car, you can also join the same snowmobile experience as a Langjökull snowmobile tour from Gullfoss.
