U-Drive Golden Circle - A self drive super jeep tour
Available all year round
Summer Edition / Winter Edition
We take our course to the East of Reykjavík in our specially modified Super-Defender to the Blue Mountains where our first adventure starts, lava caving! Here we will reveal to you how Iceland was created and how it continues to be formed today. Our adventure then continues as we make our way to the majestic Gullfoss waterfall. On the way there we will go off-road and test the capabilities of the super-jeep*. We will dine on traditional Icelandic meat soup at the Gullfoss Café before rolling onwards to the world-famous Geysir hot springs. Witnessing the superheated water explode from the ground is something that no visitor to Iceland should miss. On our way from Geysir to the Þingvellir National Park, where the European and American continental plates have been drifting apart for thousands of years, we will go off-road again*.
This trip offers an amazing ride through the landscapes and natural forces that have shaped and continue to shape Iceland. The ultimate super-jeep combo trip from Reykjavik!
*Where, when and how much we will be able to go off-road depends entirely on weather and snow conditions, in other words it depends on the Arctic winter!
