The Activity Group Snowmobiles...
...one of many options

Custom-designed adventure trips for tourists have been growing in popularity in recent years, in step with an expanding range of possibilities. The Activity Group, Iceland’s largest leisure-activity company, specializes in planning exciting trips for individuals and groups looking for something quite out of the ordinary.

While Iceland has been getting good coverage in the international media as an unusually interesting travel destination, people are nonetheless surprised at the variety of choices offered to travelers.

The Activity Group’s scale of options is impressive, and includes a once-in-a-lifetime dog sledding adventure! There are also Super-Jeep trips into the interior wilderness. The Activity Group owns a glacier lodge on both the west and east sides of Langjökull. These are the starting points for group snowmobile adventures on the glacier, while woodland adventures on ATV-quad bikes begin at Haukadalur near the Geysir hotspring. Another option is river rafting down the Hvítá River, arranged according to the group’s abilitylevel, as well as canoe trips for the more experienced.

A key to a great outing is location. The Activity Group provides the opportunity to experience some of the country’s greatest natural attractions with an unforgettable leisure activity––on the same day. For example, there are jeep trips to the beautifully colorful landscapes of Þórsmörk and Landmannalaugur, and trips to the ruggedly impressive Snæfellsnes Peninsula and the south coast. There is also an excursion to Reykjanes Peninsula that ends with a swim in the world renowned Blue Lagoon.

Possibilities are limitless, as are group sizes, and trip durations can last from several hours to several days. It’s all a matter of choice. The Activity Group organizes their trips to fit the needs and wishes of individuals and groups––and creative itinerates are proposed for those wanting to be surprised.

The guiding principle for all tours, however, is that they are a fusion of excitement and entertainment. And guides with years of experience ensure that the trips are not only exciting adventures to be remembered for years to come, but safe ones as well.
