Experience our Buggy, Lava Tunnel and Burger adventure tour. Unique way to enjoy Icelandic nature.

This five-hour Buggy, Lavatunnel en Burger tour is a unique way to enjoy Icelandic nature and covers some waterfalls and gravel road driving. A stunning natural playground for the next few hours, as your test out your buggy surrounded by amazing scenery that only Iceland can offer.

The tour starts from our base in Reykjavik, so you can easily enjoy your buggy ride on an excursion from the capital city.

Na een korte briefing waar je gids je meeneemt door veiligheidsprocedures, verkleden we ons in een sneeuw/hele pak en helm en springen we op onze buggy-rit.

After that we start our tour with a visit to the Raufarhólshellir Lava Tunnel, a must see and one of the longest lava tubes in Iceland.

Raufarhólshellir is an underground tube created by the mighty power of a volcvanic eruption over 5.000 years ago.

After the visit to Raufarhólshellir we drive to our neighboring village Hveragerði for a burger in the Greenhouse, a terrific food market.

The village Hveragerði is probably the "hottest" village in Iceland, whereas geothermal heat is just few feets under the inhabitants and greenhouses are there in abundance. One of the best burgers in Iceland is served in Gróðurhúsið.

A true celebration for both eyes and stomach!

Deze 2 of 4 zits, 4×4 ATV's zijn volledig automatisch, volledig geïnspecteerd en verkeerslegaal. Ze barsten ook van de uitstekende veiligheids- en ontwerpkenmerken, zoals de rolkooi, veiligheidsgordels en dubbele A-arm voorwielophanging. Dit alles zorgt voor een rit met buggy's die even veilig als comfortabel is.

Voor het besturen van een buggy en een minimumleeftijd van 17 jaar is een geldig internationaal rijbewijs vereist.

Raufarhólshellir
Raufarhólshellir is the fourth-longest lava tube in Iceland. The cave’s proximity to Reykjavik made it popular with visitors, who caused damage to the cave. In late 2016 the cave was closed to the public to clear accumulated garbage and install lighting and a walkway to part of the cave. The cave reopened for guided tours the following year. Raufarhólshellir is the fourth-longest lava tube in Iceland, at 1,360 metres (4,460 ft) long, with a typical height of at least 10 metres (33 ft) and width up to 30 metres (98 ft).The cave has multiple skylights, or holes in the ceiling, under which snow accumulates. Iceland route 39 crosses over the cave at a point where it is about 15 meters in diameter. The cave hosts microbial mats containing a variety of microorganisms.
Hveragerði
Hveragerði is a town and municipality in the south of Iceland, 45 km east of Reykjavik on Iceland’s main ringroad, Route 1. The river Varmá runs through the town. With an area of 9 square kilometers, Hveragerði is the third smallest municipality in Iceland by size.

The surrounding area is part of the Hengill Central volcano, and is geothermally active and experiences very frequent (usually minor) aardbevingen. The town is known for its greenhouses, which are heated by hot water from volcanic hot springs. The first greenhouse was built in 1923. These springs are the site of occurrence of certain extremophile micro-organisms, that are capable of surviving in extremely hot environments. Close to the church is a hot spring called Sandhólshver , “sand hill hot-spring”), formed during the violent South Iceland earthquake of 1896. A fenced-off geothermal area in the town has numerous hot springs and fumaroles.

Hveragerði contains a number of greenhouses and is a hotbed for Icelandic horticulture.
