A great day with many highlights - We had a really lovely day with Stefan. The weather was mixed, but he managed to stop the rain at least when we went to see the sights 👍 The visit to the Secret Lagoon was also very well organised. It wasn't too busy when we were there. With an outside temperature of 3 degrees, the 38 degree warm water was soothing. All in all, a great day. Absolutely recommendable operator

So much fun! - We had a wonderful day exploring Thorsmork by Super Jeep with our guide, Siggi! We completed a beautiful hike, explored a canyon, saw a glacier up close, and even hiked a cave. Each view was more stunning than the last, the super Jeep was so fun to ride in, and Siggi was an outstanding guide. We learned so much about Iceland and had the most fun day!!! Our only regret is that we only had enough time for one excursion. We will for sure be back and can’t wait to try another of their adventures!!!

Superb experience not to be missed - We did the Þórsmörk Super Jeep Tour at the beginning of April with Magnus and found the experience absolutely brilliant. We were a small group, we saw spectacular landscapes (which we would not have been able to access this season without Super Jeep), with a very friendly and calm guide. We were able to choose our hiking options and enjoyed a magical moment. The experience lasted a little over 6 hours, interspersed with lunch in a mountain lodge. Everything was perfect, we recommend.

Best tour on the island! - This was, without a doubt, the best part of our trip! My husband and I had so much fun on this tour and cannot recommend it enough! Loved taking the super jeep through the rough terrain and water. That alone was an experience, but the jeep got us to some absolutely incredible views that we would never have gotten to see otherwise. Our driver, our tour guide, the MVP of the day- ERIK- was amazing! Truly, he was so friendly and patient and he spent so much time with us. Of course he knew a lot about the area, but he was able to show us pictures of how much the terrain had changed over the past few months/years from earthquakes and weather and such (very cool). He was super knowledgeable and we really enjoyed spending the day with him! As for the hikes- Erik knows all the cool spots! We had a small, fit group and were able to hike to the top of a mountain and the views were breath taking. He also took us through a valley/gorge area and across some streams where our waterproof shoes/boots were put to the test. We only needed to use the (provided) crampons once… I’m pretty clumsy so I was a little nervous but he guided us effortlessly through the whole thing! It was totally worth it. Don’t miss out, book your super jeep now. I don’t know if you can request guides, but Erik’s your man :)

Perfect day in Porsmork on the Super Jeep Tour - Our guide Siggy was knowledgeable and inspirational. His love for Iceland and appreciation of nature was clear throughout our journey with him. When we come back, we will definitely book this trip again! Porsmork is an astonishingly beautiful place. This day was one of the highlights of our week.

An Unforgettable Day Exploring the Magnificent Highlands! - We had such an incredible day touring the magnificent Thorsmork area with Southcoast Adventures! Our guide Stefan was so warm, friendly, and fun! He expertly navigated us over rough terrain and through many river crossings in our Super Jeep into one of the most beautiful areas in all of Iceland. I loved the small group size - besides our family of 3 there were only 7 other people. Stefan made sure everyone in our group was comfortable and had options based on their level of fitness. We made four different stops, including a short walk to a glacier overlook, a longer stop for a choice of easy or more difficult (the one we chose) hike up Valahnuker (absolutely incredible views), another stop at a mountain hut for a delicious lunch of pizza, pasta and soup, and then finally a short hike in the beautiful Stakkholtsgjá Canyon. The scenery throughout the journey was breathtaking, and Stefan shared so much great information and kept us entertained with many Icelandic stories. This tour was definitely a highlight of our 9 day trip around the Ring Road - we are so thankful we were able to do this tour with Stefan! I’d also like to say the office was very responsive and helpful when I had trouble with booking on the website - Ana got right back with me and went ahead and set everything up for us. Southcoast Adventures is a top notch operation - will definitely use them for future adventures in Iceland!

Glaciers, volcanos and waterfalls - A great day in Thorsmork with our guide Ingvar. We saw glaciers, waterfalls and climbed a mountain for fantastic 360 degree views. Enjoyed a relaxed lunch in a cosy hut where we had a chance to get to know our guide and travelling companions a little more. A real highlight of our trip and a taste of Icelandic wilderness and great hospitality.
