Tour description
Are you ready to make new furry friends? Meet the beautiful Icelandic horses (ponies) and enjoy a scenic horse back riding tour in the Icelandic nature. Only 20 minutes from down town Reykjavik you can experience the best of the Icelandic horse & our untouched nature at the same time.

Myself and my partner had the pleasure of Begga And Sveinn’s company on Sunday 1st March. Begga is an incredible woman who explained things so clearly to a newby rider like myself. She was kind and most of all caring. You could see how much love she has for her horses and animals and that shone through. I would recommend this to everyone and anyone who will listen!! Xx
Begga and her team were helpful, educational and fun. We were a group of 8 and all agreed this was the highlight of our trip. Do it if you can
My boyfriend and I absolutely loved this experience. We did a few other activities in Iceland but this was our favourite. Riding through the snow was magical and we couldn’t stop smiling the whole time. Begga and Pim were so friendly and really informative. The horses were fantastic; very cute and well behaved. The whole experience was incredibly relaxing and we were out at ease by all the staff. I have horses but have never ridden an Icelandic before and this was the perfect place to do that. My boyfriend has very limited riding experience and this tour was perfect. I now want to get an Icelandic horse: I’m converted to the tolt!
