About this experience

After your pick-up in Reykjavík in the crack of dawn, we embark on a Super Jeep tour to the South Coast of Iceland. The tour starts along with highway #1 but right before reaching Selfoss, we take a hard left turn up North into the Icelandic Highlands. We will drive into the middle of the Golden Circle, without the stops, and if you are lucky you might be able to see the majestic Geysir spew out the super-heated geothermal water approx. 50 meters up in the air.
After passing Gullfoss café we head into the highland and make our way to Langjökull Glacier. There, on the outskirts of the Glacier, lies our Glacial Hut where you will suit up in our snowmobile gear for your snowmobile tour. After a brief security lesson with your guide, we head out to enjoy the snowmobile tour. After this eventful tour to the Glacier, we then take a detour to the town of Flúðir for the real Icelandic experience, bathing in hot geothermal water in the beautiful surroundings of the Secret Lagoon. Here we will stop and relax as long as we can before heading back to busy Reykjavík.

Cancellation for this tour

Free cancellation until 24 hours before departure; no refund after that. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.

If the weather cancels this tour

Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is a whiteout or too little snow on the approach track — decided the evening before or on the morning. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.

1Mountaineers of Iceland decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.

What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until 1 day before departure, the operator's policy after that.

Why this one and not the cheaper one?

The nearest cheaper Glacier Snowmobiling from Reykjavík from Arctic Adventures is €316 — €101 less. Here is every difference we can actually measure.

	Mountaineers of Iceland · €417	Arctic Adventures · €316
How long it runs	10 hours	7 hours

The €101 buys you 3 more hours out. Whether that is worth it is your call — but that is what the difference is.

Mountaineers of Iceland was honestly one of the highlights of my trip. The snowmobiling tour was SO much fun and exactly the kind of adventure I was hoping for. I will be totally honest — but no shade to Mountaineers of Iceland — the actual views were trash because it was snowing the entire time and visibility was terrible. 😂 But the view of Lucas leading the tour? Pristine. Hahaha. Lucas was an awesome guide and once he opened it up and picked up the pace a bit, I was lowkey proud that we kept up riding behind him. Mostly because I was fully committed to NOT tipping over like some of the other people out there and because I absolutely did not want to hear my friend roast me for the rest of the trip. 😂 Meanwhile I’m over here aggressively wiping snow off my visor every 12 seconds like I was fighting for my life in an Icelandic blizzard. In reality, I was completely fine — just being extra. Seriously though, such a fun experience and absolutely worth it. I had an amazing time.

A truly professional team. The instructors was great, the vehicles were brand new and reliable. We encountered challenging and pretty dangerous weather while leaving the mountain, but Johan, our driver was incredible— He remained calm and navigated us safely down the mountain under very difficult conditions and hard visibility.

This was our Basecamp where we met out other guides that kitted us up with protective gear and gave us a tutorial in using the snowmobile. Honestly, the Golden Circle tour was amazing.......but snowmobiling on top of a Glacier was DOPE!!!!!

Snowmobiling — questions people ask

Can you go snowmobiling in Iceland in summer?

Yes. Snowmobile tours run on Langjökull glacier all year because there is always snow on top. Tours leave from the Geysir area near Gullfoss (/experience/9999/), from Húsafell in the west, or from Reykjavík with transport (/experience/2874/). In June to August the snow is softer and the light is long; in winter the surface is firmer and the views are whiter. Both are fine. Weather cancels tours at any time of year.

Do I need a driving licence to drive a snowmobile?

Yes, a full valid driving licence to drive. Passengers do not need one and ride behind the driver. Standard pricing is two people per snowmobile; if you want to drive alone, most tours sell a single-rider supplement, and the tour page lists it. Minimum ages apply for passengers as well as drivers. Bring your physical licence card; a photo on your phone is sometimes refused.

What is included on a snowmobile tour?

The snowmobile, fuel, a helmet, balaclava, insulated overalls, gloves and boots, plus a guide leading the group across the glacier for roughly an hour of riding. Transport up the glacier from base camp in a modified truck is included; transport from Reykjavík is only included on the versions that say so. Bring your own warm base layers, sunglasses and a camera. Lunch is not included unless the page says it is.

Is snowmobiling worth combining with the Golden Circle?

If you have one spare day and want both, yes. The combined tour (/experience/17762/) does Þingvellir, Geysir and Gullfoss then drives you up Langjökull for an hour on the snowmobiles, about ten hours in total. The downside is pace: the Golden Circle stops are shorter than on a plain sightseeing day. If you have two days, do the Golden Circle properly and snowmobile from Geysir on the second.
