Description

Discover the natural beauty of the Icelandic Highlands on this private 9-hour monster truck tour. Those eager to discover stunning, off-the-beaten-track landscapes, including mountains, waterfalls, volcanoes, and lakes, should book this day trip now.

Your personalized journey starts when your professional driver-guide picks you up from your Reykjavik hotel between 8:30 and 9:00 a.m. You'll step into a 6-door monster truck, a modified four-wheel drive vehicle equipped to handle Iceland’s most rugged terrains. It’s designed for both comfort and adventure, with luxurious leather seats, air-conditioning, and Wi-Fi.

The adventure begins with an extraordinary drive into the Icelandic Highlands, where you’ll cross rivers, navigate lava fields, and explore colorful mountains. Every sight is a masterpiece of natural art, amplified by the detailed insights from your guide.

Hekla volcano, a blend of ominous beauty and thrilling geological formations, is one of the day’s exciting stops. It’s a testament to the unyielding power and majesty of nature and a place to enjoy beautiful views.

Next, witness the serene cobalt blue lake at Ljotipollur, a body of water that defies the rugged volcanic landscapes surrounding it. Its still waters hold the reflections of the sky, and are home to a healthy population of trout.

Your driver will also take you to Frostastada Lake, a tranquil water body set against a backdrop of scenic wonders. The blue waters contrast beautifully against the earthy colors of its surrounding landscape, creating the perfect photo opportunity.

Discover the mesmerizing beauty of the colorful peaks in the Landmannalaugar mountain range. The mountains here boast an array of hues, a result of silica-rich rhyolite rock and other minerals. Marvel at the vibrant reds, yellows, oranges, and blues that bring an enchanting geological masterpiece to life.

Balance the thrill of off-road driving with moments of relaxation. Immerse yourself in a natural hot spring, where the earth’s warmth offers a soothing embrace. It’s a chance to absorb the day’s excitement while surrounded by outstanding natural beauty.

Hjalparfoss waterfall is another jewel on today’s journey. Watch water cascade majestically from two waterfalls that join at their base, a unique spectacle. It’s a scene of untouched beauty, a moment where nature’s elegance is fully displayed.

As your exploration draws to a close, you’ll enjoy a scenic drive back to Reykjavik in the monster truck. Expect to return to your hotel around 6 p.m., carrying memories of landscapes where every turn unveils nature’s treasures.

Don’t miss the chance to book this private 9-hour monster truck tour into the Icelandic Highlands, visiting the Landmannalaugar area, Hekla volcano, lakes, and waterfalls. Check availability now by choosing a date.
