Iceland · CYCLING TOURS
Good cycling tours fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Quad bike over Katla’s black sands from Vík, with Mýrdalsjökull views, a plane wreck stop, full gear, and an English guide.
“Incredible experience. Nice staff. Beautiful views and safe but super fun. Thank you for all the funny picture pises”
Ride ATVs at the foot of Mýrdalsjökull, race across black sand at Sólheimasandur, see the DC3 wreck, and enjoy Dyrhólaey views.
“We had a great time, we did this tour two and a half years ago and it was even better the second time. Amazing views and wonderful guides.”
Quad bikes to Reykjavik Peak and Lava Field Peak, with warm gear, pro guides, and panoramic views over the city and bay.
“This is the best activity I’ve done during the two trips I’ve been on to Iceland. Our guide Kaktuz was informative, but also lovely which put us all at ease! Two hours is the perfect amount of time to explore Reykjavík’s surrounding area. It was a small group of six of us, plus the guide. I didn’t know exactly how challenging the terrain would be, so it was a great surprise and lots of fun! They give you overalls but still wear layers and a coat as it gets cold, but you won’t feel it if you’re dressed well. They also provide gloves and helmets/balaclavas. Don’t stress about not knowing…”
Electric mountain biking in North Iceland from Siglufjörður, small group, guided trails, electric help, and big North Atlantic views.
“Spectacular ride with a guide who was a joy!!!!! We spent the morning with Meg who took us all over the hills and through the forests of Siglufjordhur on paved and gravel roads as well as some off-road riding. She was attentive to each of our needs(some were speedy, some technical and some slow on the downhill) as well as telling us a bit about the history of the area. This tour was one of the highlights of our vacation!!!! Thank you Meg!!!!”
Guided e-bike ride through Kjarnaskógur and Akureyri old town, finished with Forest Lagoon admission included in about 2 hours.
“Such a fun time biking through the forest, seeing Icelandic horses, and relaxing in the Forest Lagoon. I would highly recommend.”
Every kind of Icelandic day out, and the best of each.
