Come and experience an unforgettable full-day adventure by joining our Golden Circle with Monster Truck ride on the Langjökull Glacier combo tour. You will have the opportunity to explore Thingvellir National Park, Geysir Geothermal Area, and Gullfoss Waterfall, as well as the second-largest glacier in Iceland. This tour guarantees a memorable experience that you will cherish for a long time.
The first stop of the day is Þingvellir National Park, where you will have a chance to see Thingvellir lake, the second biggest in Iceland, and walk in a rift where North American and Euro-Asian tectonic plates meet.
It is also known as the site of Althing, the first parliament in the world that was established year 930 AD. That’s actually where the name of the park Þingvellir (e. Fields of the parliament) originates from. If you are not in any rush our guide will walk with you over to the Öxarárfoss Waterfall which falls into the rift and merges with Thingvellir lake.
Within 10 minutes ride, we will reach Haukdalur/ Geysir geothermal area. Here we will explore some of the most geothermally active areas in Iceland. At the park, you will find the most active geyser in Iceland “Strokkur” which shoots hot water as high as 20-30 meters (65-98ft), at approximately 5-10 minutes intervals. Then we have Litli Geysir (“the small one”) which looks like a boiling pot and around 20 other dormant ones that can wake up at any time. Watch out for getting too close to it, its water temperature is about 100°C (212°F).
We continue with of journey to Gullfoss waterfall, the second-largest waterfall in Iceland. It is only 5min. walking from the parking lot to the viewpoint of the waterfall.
In the summertime, for those who are fine with hiking, we can walk with you all the way to the side of the waterfall where you will have an opportunity to feel the vibration and the fresh breeze from the waterfall cascades.
At this point, we have covered all three main attractions of the famous Golden Circle route. But it is not over yet. Now it is time for the glacier!
You will have a chance to explore the natural ice cave and learn about the glacier from our experienced guides. Glacier activity starts around 13:00 (1 PM).
You will take the most comfortable and safest ride on one of our enormous Sleipnir Glacier Monster Trucks, along with a specially prepared playlist of Icelandic music artists. You will also find special QR codes on the seats in front to create the original Icelandic Music Playlist you can take home.
Have fun and sometimes even dance out of pure happiness and excitement!
Best picture locations guaranteed.
We will drive you on a special transfer bus or directly on Sleipnir Truck (during snowy winter) to our main camp, where you can prepare yourself for an adventure. On the way, you will be able to admire the stunning beauty of the Icelandic highlands.
