2I got ripped off
The people at the glacier charged me almost 100 usd for solo rider. And multiple people that did not pay just got a solo snowmobile without paying and they said NOTHING, i can confirm. The previous for the camera footage were bad as well, my friend payed for the whole thing and it was a very short video, not good.
5Must Do!
This tour exceeded all expectations. From pickup to drop-off and everything in between, this was an amazing tour. Our guide was so nice and took great care of us the entire time. The snowmobiling was the highlight of the tour for me, but every single site was gorgeous. Iceland is truly a beautiful country. Having a tour that took us to the main points of the Golden Circle in one day was a great way to maximize our time in Iceland. I appreciated the guide's thoughtful commentary while driving us, as he pointed out certain things along the way and provided us with many interesting facts about the country.
5A Day with Gudjon Jes Jacek in the scenic Iceland!
Was a very exciting and informative trip with Gudjon Jes Jacek. A funny guy and entertaining from start to finish. He definitely know how to make the trip so well organized and coordinated. Professionally done with the smooth ride with the driver. I will recommend this particular excursion.
5Tony took us on an epic adventure!!

He is a wealth of knowledge and makes learning Iceland’s history, present day events and future plans so entertaining. And snowmobiling… such an exhilarating experience! 100% recommend!!

About Reykjavik
Reykjavik is the northernmost capital of any nation, a colourful, compact city of art and music that opens onto Iceland's volcanic landscapes.
The landmark Hallgrímskirkja church, its tower inspired by basalt columns, rises above streets of brightly painted houses. Down by the harbour, the glass-fronted Harpa concert hall shimmers on the water, and the Sun Voyager sculpture faces the sea toward Mount Esja. Laugavegur, the main shopping street, is lined with design shops, cafés and bars.
Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
