The guide was absolutely amazing, making the experience even more enjoyable. The sights are stunning, and the ATV ride is an absolute must! It’s the best way to see so much more of the area, especially if you prefer to limit hiking and walking. If you have limited mobility due to age or other factors, the ATV is the perfect option—you get to take in all the breathtaking views without any issues. We decided to upgrade to a side-by-side vehicle, and it was fantastic. Driving in the snow with an off-road vehicle was a first for us, and it was an absolute blast! It’s ideal for anyone looking to experience nature and explore off-the-grid areas in an exciting yet accessible way. Highly recommended for adventurers of all levels!

Fantastic trip, easy pick up and drop off. The ATV ride was amazing! Our first time and everything was explained well and it was great. We also stopped off at the DC3 plane wreck and Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss which just topped off the day. Would 100% reccomend.
