Prepare for a customized 3-day private experience in Iceland’s highlands! Starting from Reykjavik, we’ll head straight into the stunning Þórsmörk, the valley of Thor. This exceptional place is not easy to reach, but it’s cherished by locals for its breathtaking beauty—there’s nothing like it on Earth. With a knowledgeable guide, you’ll travel past glaciers, climb hills, and navigate through ravines, all while embracing the wild spirit of Icelandic nature.
Once you explore Þórsmörk, we’ll complete our journey with the well-known Golden Circle, featuring some of Iceland’s most iconic sights.
This tour runs year-round, with options that shift based on the season and weather. Join us for an experience that connects you to the heart of Iceland.
We’ll show you a fresh take on a classic adventure. Get ready to cross roaring glacial rivers while leaving the city behind. Thor’s Valley sits peacefully, surrounded by glaciers except on one side, where dark rivers flow. These glaciers are mighty, quietly shaping the valley and shielding it from the winds.
This area is home to Eyjafjallajökull and Katla volcanoes, which influence the valley. You’ll discover ravines and canyons like Stakkholtsgja, which have small caves and inlets in the rock walls, sparking thoughts about whether an outlaw might have hidden away here long ago.
We’ll add more to your journey with an extra adventure at the nearby Golden Circle attractions. It’s the perfect way to see two fantastic spots without missing a beat!
Your journey likely starts in Reykjavik, traveling east towards the Thórsmörk Valley. You’ll ride up the valley in a Super Jeep, stopping at the Gígjökull glacier outlet, which extends from the notorious Eyjafjallajökul glacier. The day’s journey ends at a mountain hut, where hills, cliffs, and stunning views surround you. Enjoy a BBQ dinner and the beauty around you because the next day will be filled with a lot of walking and even more fun.
On your second day, explore the Valley of Thor and its natural wonders. Whether you choose a ride, a hike, or a mix of both, there’s plenty to see and explore! You can visit hidden canyons, where beautiful views and waterfalls await. If you’re feeling adventurous, challenging hikes through rugged terrain will lead you to spectacular viewpoints. As you make your way through the valley, you’ll experience a stunning transformation in the landscape, from lush vegetation to rocky terrain, all while surrounded by majestic glaciers.
Wave goodbye to the Valley of Thor as your adventure continues! Day three takes you through the iconic Golden Circle. Experience the stunning Gullfoss Waterfall, which plunges 31 meters (102 feet) into a narrow gorge. Feel the geothermal energy from Strokkur, the famous geyser that erupts in the Geysir Hot Spring area. Finally, stroll through Þingvellir National Park, where you can walk between drifting tectonic plates and picture the Vikings who once roamed this incredible landscape.
