This was an amazing experience and I highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience Icelandic horses while near Reykjavík. We can’t wait to go back the next time we are in Iceland. The horses are absolutely beautiful and well-cared for with great temperament. The owner is friendly and helpful, and the tour guide provided great instruction and assistance for less experienced riders. If you are unsure of whether to book or not, just do it - you won’t regret it!

The tour was great and very memorable! The horses were so gentle and friendly and well-trained for a novice rider like me. Our guide, Monica, made it easy for us and did an incredible job taking videos and photos of us throughout the tour. It was a beautiful way to see the red lava rocks and countryside and experience the Icelandic horses! Would 10/10 recommend!
