Private Hiking Tour: Vikings and Waterfalls Tour in Reykjavik
This tour is a seasonal tour. The reason for it is that the roads that allow access to most of the sites are closed or impassable in the winter time.
Even during the summer months, some sites require special vehicle to get to them. And we have just the kind of jeep you need.
We will also take advantage of this vehicle to drive on the backroads that connect those sites together. It allows us to cruise away from the crowds, and will give you a strong adventure feeling.
Finally, the main perk about this tour is to not only focus on nature, but also gives you an insight of Viking history.

Hjalparfoss
After driving for about 2 hours, we will visit a double waterfall, falling among basaltic columns in a small pond. The best scenery to begin a beautiful day.

After Hjálparfoss, we will visit Stöng, the remains of a Viking longhouse, found and excavated in 1939. The drive to there takes about 20 minutes, and this is when we will start driving on backroads and make use of the Super Jeep that we will be travelling in.
