The 8 Best Snowmobile Tours in Iceland

1.Golden Circle and Glacier Snowmobiling Day Trip from Reykjavik

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,328 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $300Our pick

Combine Iceland’s Golden Circle with a one-hour Langjökull snowmobile ride, including Reykjavik pickup, guides, gear, and glacier views.

“It was quite a large group of around 60 people, but Gudjon (our guide) and Anna (the coach driver) did a fantastic job managing such a group. We spent some time exploring the Golden Circle and the snowmobiling activity took about 3–4 hours in total (including transport to the glacier; I think the snowmobiling activity itself was about one hour) It might be better to avoid this time of year (mid to late December) as the sun sets quite early (we didn’t manage to spend much time at the Geysir). Also it’s worth noting that snowmobiling isn’t very easy and that there’s a chance you might flip over. I didn’t…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 377 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $265

Review of Langjökull snowmobiling from Gullfoss, with monster truck transport, glacier views, costs, tips, limits, and booking advice.

“This was a cool experience. My boyfriend drove the snowmobile and I was a passenger. It was very bumpy and hard to control as you are on ice. The group size is relatively large and you snowmobile on a track in a line. There’s no going off on your own as it would be too dangerous. The views were amazing!”

6.Langjökull Ice Cave and Snowmobile Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 124 reviews · 4 hours · from $304

Ride a snowmobile across Langjökull, enter a glacier ice cave, and cross Iceland’s snowy highlands from Gullfoss in four hours.

“The guides were very helpful, from start to finish. The snowmobiles were fun and it was great travelling to a place where the snow was so deep it was actually blue. The kids aged 12 and 9 loved it too. The reason I didn't give the experience 5 stars was that it was cut very short, not the guides fault as it was because visibility was very poor. We were only out for a total of about 45 minutes, therefore quite an expensive trip.”

7.Snowmobile tour on Vatnajökull

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 111 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $272Top rated

Ride a snowmobile across Vatnajökull with a Super Jeep ascent, glacier views, warm gear, and practical tips for this 3-hour Iceland adventure.

“Giant jeep drive up to the impressive Vatnajokull--Europe's largest glacier--and fun snowmobile ride. We lucked out and got a sunny day on the glacier, so it was like snowmobiling in the sky above the clouds! Our guide was very knowledgeable about the glacier and about local Icelandic history. I just wish we'd gotten to spend a little more time on the snowmobiles. Also, there is an extra charge if you are a solo rider. I would do this again though.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 44 reviews · from $250Best value

Ride a snowmobile across Eyjafjallajökull, reach the glacier by Super Jeep, and enjoy huge South Coast views on this three-hour Iceland tour.

“We went snowmobiling this afternoon and it couldn't have gone better. The guys at Southcoast Adventure are really professional and friendly, our guide answered all our questions whilst he was driving us up to the snow cap, where the snowmobiles are. As it was just the three of us + our guide, he gave our son the thrill of driving faster than our son had expected, whilst we followed at our pace. Our guide always made sure we stayed together, everyone was safe and the weather was fantastic. We stopped at scenic viewpoints to take photos. The activity was fantastic, the extra outer layers we were given very useful and…”
