About this experience

Riding the Icelandic horse is a must-do at least once during your visit. It connects you to Icelandic history and allows you to experience the most authentic travel method there is in Iceland. The Lava tour is a more popular and ideal adventure for beginners as well as experienced riders. During the tour you will ride in beautiful landscapes through lava fields, green hillsides and enjoy a mountain view. For 1.5 to 2 hours, or 4 hours with transfer, your tour offers you a relaxing coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. Included are riding helmets, rubber boots, rain wear, or warm outfit for your ride.
