4Fun Super Jeep Tour
The Super Jeep tour was great. We enjoyed the trip, the only bad part was the constant rain and wind. Midgard did a great job of setting us up for an active tour with great sites to see and experience.
2Paid for a Super Jeep Tour, got a basic road trip
My family of 4 recently booked a Þórsmörk Super Jeep Day Tour, paying about 140,000 ISK (roughly $1,200 USD at the time of purchase). Unfortunately for us, it was raining all night/day, causing rivers to rise, and thus we didn't make it past the second water crossing; our driver was not comfortable going any further. As a result, we turned around 45min into our 6 hour tour and instead of an f-road wilderness adventure, the remainder of our time was spent driving on basic roads, seeing sights we could have easily reached in our rental 4x4. I thought I was paying for the experience and access of a Super Jeep to places and sites I couldn't normally go to on my own, unfortunately that's not what I got. I understand weather in Iceland is unpredictable, but the complete lack of contingency planning is unacceptable. I'm glad they had safety as a priority, but this is Iceland, tour operators monitor river levels and road status constantly; we should have been warned in advance and given the option to reschedule, receive a partial refund, or pivot to a genuine alternative f-road adventure/route. Charging full price for a glorified road trip is completely unreasonable. We wasted our money and time that would have been better spent elsewhere (e.g. nearby hot springs or community pools). Warning to future travelers: If rain is anywhere in the forecast, cancel your booking immediately. Do not risk paying for a tour that will not deliver on its core promise.

Phenomenal and unforgettable. A must do. Sven was awesome. Wise, informative, and funny. The highlands are breathtaking.
5Outstanding
Wow wow wow! Highlight of our trip to Iceland. With scenic stops every 20 minutes. All the men on our bus did the hike and the ladies went berry picking and walked along the river. It was a fantastic day. Highly recommend Midgard who met every need and Lilly our guide was just lovely and perfectly knowledgeable. I highly recommend this operator and tour. A +++++++++++++
5Epic Icelandic Adventure
The valley of Þórsmörk is a world hidden behind glacial rivers, where the earth feels raw, ancient, and entirely alive. Leaving the ring road behind, the journey begins the moment the tires of the super jeep hit the first rushing river. There is a tense thrill in crossing these rivers, watching the milky, silt-heavy water rise against the jeep, knowing that this river shifts its treacherous bed every single day. Once inside the valley, the harsh Icelandic winds suddenly drop, replaced by an unexpected oasis. Sheltered by three towering glaciers—Eyjafjallajökull, Mýrdalsjökull, and Tindfjallajökull—Þórsmörk holds its own microclimate. Here, low-slung downy birch forests carpet the valley floor, their emerald leaves contrasting sharply with the pitch-black volcanic soil. Hiking up for a higher perch, the perspective shifts entirely. Every step reveals the scars of the land: jagged moss-covered gorges, sharp ridges carved by ancient eruptions, and the massive, sprawling network of braided rivers winding through the black desert below. Up here, the air is so clean and I breathe more deeply, as if it’s the best air my lungs have experienced. The silence is immense, broken only by the distant, low rumble of melting ice and the crunch of volcanic gravel beneath your boots. As the afternoon light deepens, casting long, dramatic shadows across the peaks, a profound sense of isolation takes over. It is a place that makes you feel entirely insignificant, yet deeply connected to the pulse of the planet. To post this was my favorite day of the entire visit would be an understatement. Our small group of 12 was guided by @sveinn_valtyr , who shared the science behind the volcanoes and glaciers, some Sagas, Icelandic history while he sprinkled it with a little of his humor too. @midgardadventure is the tour operator, they are a family-run, Icelandic-owned business, utilizing local Icelandic guides. Their “jeeps” are comfortable and sturdy, a necessity for that terrain. I cannot recommend this company enough! Absolutely perfect day for me. Thank you Sveinn and Midgard for such a great experience! ❤️
5Super Jeep Adventure
The jeep tour was very interesting. We rode through many rivers in the back country, and our driver Liliya was friendly and competent. The lunch was tasty, and the view from the lunch spot was gorgeous.
