There was a LOT of sights on this trip but the snowmobiling was by far the most fun. The guides were all very helpful and a ton of fun. This is a long day but if you want a day packed with activities without hassle this is the way to go
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Hello Cathy
Thank you so much for the fantastic review!
We are thrilled to hear that the snowmobiling was the highlight of your trip. Our guides work hard to keep things both safe and high-energy, so it’s wonderful to know they made such a positive impact on your experience.
It definitely makes for a long day, but we’re glad the "hassle-free" approach allowed you to sit back and soak up all those sights. We hope to see you back on the trails again soon!
Best regards,
Einar

We loved being in a small group. The super jeep was a good choice. We hit 1 stop on the Golden Circle on the way to the glacier to snowmobile. Our driver didnt speak the best English so a little hard to understand at times. We then headed to the glacier. The closer we got the worse conditions got. By the time we go to the snowmobile it was whiteout conditions. The snow and wind were blowing so hard you could hardly see the snowmobile in front of you. But we never felt unsafe. We had a guide up front, in back and one of each side. Wish we could have seen the glacier, but with the wind and snow we really couldn't see a thing.
On the way back to base camp our jeep got stuck. Another truck had to come pull us out. After we finally got back to the main road we stopped at the other 2 golden circle stops. Which were all very nice.
I would definitely make sure you take sandwiches or something to eat. Thankfully we did, because we didnt stop anywhere that had food until 3ish.
Overall it was a great experience. Just wish thr weather had cooperated better, but that is out of the company's hands. Still a really great time and would recommend doing this tour!!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Hello
Thank you for your detailed and positive review! We're so glad you loved the small group vibe, the Super Jeep adventure, and felt safe even in those tough whiteout conditions—our guides always prioritize safety with that extra coverage (front, back, and sides). Sorry the weather hid the glacier views and caused the jeep to get stuck; Iceland's weather can be unpredictable, but we're thrilled you still found it a great overall experience and enjoyed the Golden Circle stops! Great tip on bringing snacks—we'll remind future guests about that too. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to welcome you back when the skies are clearer for those epic glacier views!

Great tour with smaller group size not a tour van full of people is definitely a perk. Plenty of information given along the drive. I would definitely recommend

Personalised experience from pickup to drop-off our guide was genuinely so passionate about getting us everywhere at the best times such as seeing the sun setting over thingvellir national park. We were in a super jeep (modified defender) with another 2 so very personalised and stopped for perfect time ~40 mins at Gullfoss and geysir
The snowmobiling was an awesome introduction, you get a briefing then follow each other in a line up the glacier, stop for photos and switch driver if needed at the top on way down.
Viator and Mountaineers of Iceland were brilliant to contact around pickup time, answered instantly.
Massive thanks to our guide (sorry to forget your name) you really made our trip and I hope your resteraunt trade is booming over the coming months in your other venture.

Hello Dan
Thank you for your heartfelt review, Dan! We're over the moon to hear this was such a personalised, magical experience—from the stunning sunset over Thingvellir in the Super Jeep to the awesome intro snowmobiling on the glacier (with photo stops and driver switches). It sounds like the perfect day, and we're thrilled Viator and our team made pickup smooth and responsive too! A massive thank you right back for the kind shoutout to your guide (no worries on the name—we'll pass the love along!). Wishing him all the best with his restaurant venture too—hope it's booming! We'd love to welcome you back for more unforgettable Icelandic adventures anytime.

Great day out with the key golden circle sights combined with snowmobile tour. Our guide adjusted our itinerary to avoid coach tours and fitting everything into one of the shortest days of the year.
Roopa_J, Dec 2025
This is such a great trip. Try something different with snowmobling. It's a small group tour and perfect to really connect with others. Our driver Clem was absolutely amazing, the knowledge he has is amazing and I got to learn new things about Iceland. It was a great addition to the tour.
The snowmobling crew from the equipment hut to the actual riders were just so nice and helpful at all times. We got change up riders at the half way point so we all could get turns.
The group we had on our Jeep were so friendly and it felt so nice to amongst a small group to get the most of this Golden circle tour.
Thank Mountaineer of Iceland

Absolutely amazing experience! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the Snowmobile and Golden Circle trip to anyone. We had an incredible time in the Super Jeep with Nico — he was extremely informative and happily answered all our questions. Truly a fantastic guide and very thoughtful, even surprising the kids with Oreo biscuits after the snowmobile ride. A top-notch experience from start to finish.
Tip - dont forget to have grips for walking around if icy.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Dear guest,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that you had an amazing trip with our friendly guide Nico and that the snowmobiling was the highlight for you. It means the world to us that everything felt perfectly organised from start to finish.

If you are meeting up at the port, make sure you go outside the terminal past the cruise line's buses and to the next parking lot where private tour buses are parked. Yngvi was a great guide. He told great stories and had so much information about Iceland. Everything we saw was fascinating. The snowmobiling was pretty cool. This was a long excursion and we were tired when it was over, but worth the time and exertion!
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Hi!
Thank you for the fantastic review and the helpful tip about finding the private tour buses at the port! We're so glad you enjoyed your day with Yngvi, his storytelling and knowledge about Iceland really bring the experience to life! It sounds like the snowmobiling was a blast, and we’re thrilled you found the long excursion worth it, even if it was tiring. 😊 Hope to welcome you back for more Icelandic adventures soon!

About 3 hours of driving. Waterfall was well worth it and snowmobiling was a neat adventure. Was 60 degrees and glacier was melting fast. Challenge to control the throttles. Mercedes off-road bus was amazing.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Dear Mike,
Thank you for sharing your experience from your recent tour with us! We’re delighted to hear that the waterfall was a highlight and well worth the three-hour drive, and that you found the snowmobiling adventure to be a unique experience. It’s great to know you enjoyed the ride on our Mercedes off-road bus as well!
We appreciate your note about the warm 60-degree weather and the fast-melting glacier, which can indeed make controlling the snowmobile throttles a bit challenging. Your feedback helps us better understand conditions on the ground and informs how we can enhance the experience for future guests.
Best regards,
Einar

The highlight of this tour was the snowmobile ride on the glacier. I gave this tour a four star because I was hoping for more information from our guide about the additional sites we experienced. Our guide was also our driver, so maybe he was only expected to drive and be our snowmobile guide.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Hello Virginia
Thank you for your thoughtful review and for highlighting the snowmobile ride on the glacier as the standout part of your tour! We're thrilled you enjoyed that experience. We appreciate your feedback about wanting more information from the guide about the additional sites. Your point about the guide also being the driver is well noted, and we’ll share this with our team to ensure we can enhance the informative aspects of the tour moving forward. Thank you for choosing our tour, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure with an even more enriching experience!
Best regards,

Yngvi picked us up promptly at the scheduled time and location. He was very friendly and informative throughout the trip, and was so knowledgeable about a lot of things Icelandic. I asked him a lot of questions and he almost always had an answer.
The snowmobiling was a highlight for me. I had never been snowmobiling before, and this was a thrill. After my initial nervousness, I got the hang of it and wanted to go faster and faster.
The Super-Jeep was very comfortable - we hardly felt any of the many potholes and dips on the gravel road portion of the trip.
The only negative was that it hit 30 degrees Celsius today (apparently a record high) and the air conditioning in the vehicle didn’t work.
But overall, we had an amazing time and we’d highly recommend the Super-Jeep experience. Having a smaller group was definitely preferable to some of the very large group trips that we encountered along the way.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Dear Vincent,
Thank you for your wonderful review and for choosing our Super-Jeep experience! We’re thrilled to hear that Yngvi’s knowledge and friendliness enhanced your trip, and that you enjoyed the thrill of snowmobiling for the first time. It’s great to know the Super-Jeep provided a comfortable ride despite the challenging terrain.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the air conditioning issue, especially on such an unusually warm day. We’re addressing this to ensure it doesn’t happen again. Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and we’re delighted you had an amazing time overall. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!

I can’t even put into words how amazing this tour was. Every stop was stunning and the views along the way were breathtaking. There are not words to describe snowmobiling on a glacier but it’s an experience my family and I will never forget. Yngvi was an amazing tour guide and driver- very knowledgeable and super nice! No regrets,15/10 would booms again!
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you so much for your incredible review! We're truly honored that the tour left such a memorable impression on you and your family. It’s wonderful to hear that every stop and view made the experience so special—and snowmobiling on a glacier really is something unforgettable! We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Yngvi; he'll be thrilled to know he helped make your day even more amazing. We hope to welcome you back again someday—15/10 would love to have you!

This was a great tour and the guides were amazing. The snowmobiling was also and I felt safe even with limited visibility at certain moments due to heavy snow that particular day. Just follow the person in front of you and all will be ok. Plus there are guides all around you in case you need help.

Wow. That’s all you can say. Our guide was such an amazing guy and the way you are looked after is phenomenal. Don’t let the price put you off because it’s a FULL day of activities, not just snowmobiling. One tip I will give is to bring your own lunch that you’ve brought from the shop, unless you’re happy spending £16 on a lamb soup, £18 on burger and chips or £7 on a cupcake, price aside however they were all really tasty.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Dear Charlie
Wow – what an incredible review! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re so happy to hear that you had an amazing time and that our guide made such a great impression. Our team takes great pride in providing a top-tier experience, so it’s wonderful to know you felt well looked after throughout the day.
We appreciate your note about the food pricing and the helpful tip for future guests. We're glad you still enjoyed the meals and found them tasty! It’s true that this tour is much more than just snowmobiling, and we’re delighted that you saw the full value of the experience.

Incredible experience snowmobiling and seeing Golden Circle sights! Our tour guide driver, Thor, was very friendly and informative. He explained history of our stops and fun facts along the way. We even got badly stuck in the snow driving out to the base camp due to weather, but he did an amazing job getting us out. Highly recommend this tour!

Honestly this was the best day ever. Snowmobiling on the glacier was unreal. We thoroughly enjoyed it . Def a highlight of our trip to Iceland . Only downside was the doors at the back of the super jeep rattled the whole trip , we were sitting at the back seats so don't know if the rest of the passengers heard it .

Wow, what an amazing trip around the golden circle. From the moment we were picked up in the super jeep we had the most amazing time. HP was a great guide, the tour timing was spot on and you are really immersed in Icelandic nature and history. The gullfoss waterfall was stunning. The drive up to the glacier was a fun and exciting ride. Snowmobiling was an absolute blast and the scenery was breathtaking. We got to see the geysir and walk between two continental plates, this really was the highlight of our visit to Iceland. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone.
