Review of Arctic Adventures’ Landmannalaugar day hike from Reykjavík, with colorful mountains, lava fields, hot springs, transport details, and practical tips.

“This was a wonderful full-day trip hiking in the Highlands. It’s a long drive but worth it for a beautiful hike, great views, and a nice soak in the natural hot springs. The guides were really great, very knowledgeable and good at supporting all levels of hikers. There was plenty of time for hiking, stopping for photos, and going in the geothermal pool. I would definitely recommend this excursion!”

Review of the 13-hour Landmannalaugar tour from Reykjavik, with colorful hills, hot springs, crater lakes, waterfalls, hikes, and practical tips.

“Landmannalaugar & Háifoss Waterfall Tour was the best tour out of all the tours we did in Iceland. Our Tour Guide Ottar was polite and quite helpful. He shared all the information and details precisely and also accompanied us all the way to the summit of Landmannalaugar. He also explained us about hot springs and different types of volcanic rocks on the hike. Everything about this tour was super amazing the Landmannalaugar Rainbow mountains are truly spectacular and the hot spiring after the hike felt completely relaxing. Along with Waterfalls we saw one crater and a hidden gem called Gjain which was a paradise with waterfall and Autumn colors.”

Review of a 14-hour Landmannalaugar super-jeep tour from Reykjavik, with rhyolite mountains, crater lakes, waterfalls, hiking, and hot springs.

“It didn’t stop raining all day. By the end of the hike we were soaked from head to toe (even though we had waterproof gear). With that said, tel the trip was amazing! The ride in and out was fun, exciting with great photo stops along the way. The destination was a wonderland of lava fields with tons of obsidian to view. The tour owner/operator Adam, was a pleasure to talk to and a wealth of information on Iceland. We was extremely patient and concentrated on making our visit memorable. On the way back we stopped for a bathroom break, food (soup) and two amazing waterfalls. Can’t recommend this tour…”

Review of Iceland’s Landmannalaugar super jeep tour, with Hekla, crater lakes, waterfalls, hiking, hot pools, price, and practical tips.

“If you are going to do this trip you need to do you research. Understand that the trip is mainly just hiring a driver. The driver picked us up in an elongated Ford Excursion which I don’t consider a “super jeep” but that isn’t what I was there for. It is a long drive and about half is on very bumpy roads. On the way, you will stop at several places to admire the views. When you get to Landmannalauger the driver will basically give you a couple of options to do (hike or bath) and say be back in 3 hours. I had prepared and knew I was going…”

Review of the Landmannalaugar hike from Reykjavik, with colorful mountains, hot springs, Valley of Tears, rough roads, and practical tips.

“There is much off-road travel that gets you to some of the best off-the-beaten-path natural scenery. Our guide took us on a 1.5-hr hike in Landmannalaugar that cuts in between beautiful mountains and past giant lava fields. Other stops include beautiful waterfalls, lakes, and rivers. Many incredible views.”
