Horse riding & Golden Circle afternoon tour

Available all year round

This tour will allow you to make the most of your time in Iceland. In one day you'll get to go horse riding on the Icelandic horse and see the most famous sights in Iceland.

You'll start the day by enjoying a riding tour in the idyllic landscape of Mosfellsdalur valley, located just out of Reykjavik city. The riding tour is suitable for all ages and experience levels, from beginner to expert. After the riding experience and a short break we head to the National Park Þingvellir, with its remarkable geological features. The Icelandic Parliament - Alþingi - was founded on the site in 930 AD., making it the oldest still-functioning parliament in the world. We then visit the impressive glacial waterfall Gullfoss and the geothermal area around Geysir and Strokkur with its spouting geysers. The tour takes us through fertile agricultural areas and we visit Hveragerdi village with its numerous greenhouses, before heading back to Reykjavik over the mountain heath Hellisheiði.
