Reykjavik: Northern Lights ATV Quad Tour & StargazingYou ride an ATV through Icelandic backcountry at night, positioned at Hafravatn Lake and Mount Hafrafell where Northern Lights are most likely to appear. While waiting for the aurora, you stargaze and hunt for shooting stars. Hotel pickup is included; riding gear, helmets and gloves are provided. The tour only runs when clear skies are forecast, and you'll need a valid driver's license and warm clothes.Is it for me?Choose this if you want to hunt the Northern Lights without arranging your own transport or worrying about finding the best viewing spot—the guide handles the route and timing, and you just show up with a driver's license and warm clothes.
Reykjavik: ATV Quad Tour with Mountain Views & Small GroupsYou get picked up from your Reykjavik hotel (or a nearby bus stop if downtown), driven to the basecamp, suited up in protective gear, and ride an ATV quad across lava fields and up to Hafrafell mountain for views of Reykjavik and the surrounding towns. The whole outing is about 2.5 hours. Your guide is local and the group stays under eight people, so it doesn't feel crowded. Just know that downtown pickups have restrictions, so you may start at a designated bus stop instead of your hotel door.Is it for me?A good fit if you want to ride an ATV across Icelandic terrain without arranging your own transport or gear—pickup is included and everything you need is provided. Plan for a full-day outing with the ride itself lasting about 2.5 hours, which is what lets you see the lava fields and mountain views without rushing.
ATV Riding near Reykjavik: Volcanic Springs & Lava FieldsRide an ATV through volcanic terrain near Reykjavik, operating your own quad bike across lava fields, past the Hellisheidi Geothermal Power Plant, and up Hengill Mountain to see geothermal steam rising from the ground. A professional guide teaches you safety and operation before departure, provides all protective gear, and leads the group to a final walk down to Volcanic Springs, where you can soak in the natural hot water. The adventure runs 3.5 hours with pickup and drop-off included; you choose to ride solo or share an ATV with a passenger.Is it for me?Book solo if you want to control the bike and navigate the terrain at your own pace; book the two-rider option if you prefer a passenger seat while someone else operates the ATV.
Reykjavik ATV & Helicopter Combo: 1.5-Hour Ride & ViewsThis combo activity in Reykjavik pairs a 1.5-hour ATV ride across mountain terrain with a helicopter flight over the capital and surrounding ranges. You start with hotel pickup, get briefed and geared at the base camp, then drive up to Reykjavik Peak before being transferred to the helicopter office. The helicopter includes a 20-minute landing on a mountain peak to step out and take in the view. No ATV experience is required, and children from age 8 can ride as passengers.Is it for me?Pick the single-rider ATV if you want to control your own machine on the mountain climb; choose shared if you prefer to split costs and ride together—then both options include the helicopter flight afterward, so you experience Reykjavik from ground level and from above in one outing.
