Embark on an adrenaline-filled ride through Iceland’s rugged volcanic terrain on this Glacier Buggy tour, with Myrdalsjökull glacier as your dramatic backdrop.
Begin your adventure at our base camp, where you'll gear up, receive a safety briefing, and learn how to operate your easy-to-drive buggy—no prior experience necessary, just a valid driver’s license.
From there, set off into the wild, black-sand landscapes of South Iceland.
