Horseback Riding Tour in Iceland

An Unforgettable Experience!

What an amazing time we had! We went on a truly beautiful ride with your stunning horses. Beforehand, we were asked about our preferences regarding the temperament of the horses we wanted to ride, as well as our experience level. My friend preferred a calm horse and was given Loki, while I wanted a more forward-going horse and got to ride Fluga.

Once we met our horses, we were accompanied by our wonderful guide, Hûgrun. This three-hour Viking trip was an absolute dream! At first, we were a little concerned about the horses’ well-being, but as soon as we met Hûgrun, those worries disappeared. Her love and care for these horses were truly heartwarming.

Throughout the ride, we made several stops to let the horses graze and enjoy some horse treats. Hûgrun also took plenty of photos and videos for us, capturing these magical moments.

This experience was beyond our expectations, and our dreams have truly come true. We will never forget this adventure!

Highly recommended!

This was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. The staff were open, inviting, friendly and I WILL be back……..

We chose a two hour house back riding tour. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. Once at the horse farm, we were given time to go over some rules and regulations, to have some hot chocolate, to dress warm and mingle among the beautiful horses..

The staff was excellent, caring and making sure everyone had a positive experience.

They even stopped on the way to take pictures of you on the horse. After leaving a hat behind, a very kind staff member (Neel) took my email address and creatively found a way to get my hat back to me while I was still in Iceland. In spite of the weather being very cold, snow and sleet we were protected by the warm jumpsuits they provided for us. The view and experience was amazing. I do it again.

Myself and two of my children, aged 9 and 13 went on the 50 minutes lava field ride. I've never been on a horse in my life, but we all really enjoyed this. The guides were really friendly and told us a lot about the horses (and the Icelandic horses union) and the lava fields in Iceland. The horses had a lot of personality, but were all very well behaved. We would have loved to have come back or tried a longer tour, but we didn't have the time unfortunately. Highly recommended.

Horses seemed to be well cared for-I am no expert on horse care so take this with a grain of salt but it was clear that the people working there did really care about the horses and the horses seemed chill with being ridden. Views were beautiful, riding was fun and straightforward, guides were super friendly. A bit expensive but worth it IMO

This was the only excursion we planned while in Iceland and it was not disappointing. We were the only couple to ride that day with our three experienced guides. Sophie, Peah, and Leah was awesome. They gave us a very unique experience and being the only couple riding we really felt special. Loved the horses, mine was named Spirit and he had a mind of his own. The only drawback was the location was a little difficult to find but overall, I highly recommend this trip.

My boyfriend (who has no riding experience) and I (who grew up riding) did the Black Sand Beach tour and could not have asked for a better experience! Our guide, Lia, was fantastic and had a strong passion for horses and nature. It’s clear the horses are loved and well cared for. The views around the property and at the black sand beaches were breathtaking! Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique experience in Iceland.

Great experience. The staff was really nice, the horses seemed really well cared for. We all really enjoyed it. We split off with the faster group and got our fair share of trotting. I will say, it's more about the horse experience than the scenery, but that's fine. Just don't be disappointed that it's not the most scenic of your time in Iceland.

They had snowsuits you could wear if you weren't bundled up enough for the weather.

I had such a great time here. They did a great job of preparing us and finding out about our experience riding to match us with an appropriate horse. Although being with the horses and riding was my favourite part, the landscape was also phenomenal. The leader of our group shared very interesting stories with me (my horse was second in line) about Icelandic horses, the farm, and the natural environment. We had lots of time to spend time with our horse after the ride, take pics, etc.

The ride was a trip highlight for me! It was so amazing. The staff were so great and accommodating! If I could give more stars I would. A lovely experience that I would definitely recommend!
